comrade abbott is the biggest socialist in parliament. that's a promise.

sorry, the liberal party don't believe in free markets. they believe the best way to achieve economic goals is through big government, which is why they're going to raise taxes and implement a welfare program for carbon emitters at the expense of honest, hard working tax payers. i wish i was...

I'm pretty sure Turnbull has said that the Coalition would be committed to an evaluation of the NBN should a Coalition government commence early next year. I believe the concern is that, at that point in time, the NBN might cost more to rip up than to finish or amend. At that point in time the...
