You know it’s all turning to custard for Tony Abbott when his own supporters voice their sense of betrayal over plans to increase taxes for virtually all Australians.

With support for the Abbott Government plummeting in recent polls, you could be hard pressed to find something else they could possibly cock up unless of course the Education Minister felt compelled to say something stupid like university students can afford to pay more for their education and the like, oh wait.

Pensioners, the traditional stalwarts of the Liberal party are already reeling from the Abbott’s looming changes to the Aged Pension, and they too feel betrayed.

Heck, even other supporters like the Business Spectator’s Robert Gottliebsen are also spewing.

“I have never seen so much anger with a Coalition prime minister [amongst staunch Liberal supporters in several States]” writes Gottliebsen in today’s Business Spectator.

“It’s not the potential increase in income taxes via a levy that angers them but rather the fact that they were misled by their leader.”

“The main weapon Tony Abbott used against Julia Gillard was that she lied over the carbon tax. And he could not have made it clearer that there would be no rises in income taxes in his government.”

“And it was that message of trust and predictability that Liberals delivered around the country.

…..Their supporters now feel betrayed.”

The anger among staunch Liberal supporters is intensified by the fact that the Prime Minister and Treasurer and other senior ministers in private briefings made it clear, in the year before the election, that they knew the budget had deep problems.

Higher income taxes were ruled out.

Last week, in indicating an income tax levy might be coming, Tony Abbott claimed that a five-year levy was not a tax. Everyone in Australia knows that is complete and utter nonsense.

Both Tony Abbott and Joe Hockey have been accused of refusing to share information with their party room colleagues and are basically announcing policy on the run.

With Tony Abbott’s credibility already in tatters, news today that the avuncular Joe Hockey has been charging business leaders an “”annual subscription fee” in return confidential briefings, is yet another unwelcome body blow.

Hockey is allegedly accepting tens of thousands of dollars in Liberal Party donations from a select group of business people and industry lobbyists in return for access.

The donors are alleged to be members of a fundraising body run by the Treasurer’s North Sydney Federal Electoral Conference (FEC), known as the North Sydney Forum.

Donors are offered “VIP” meetings with the Treasurer in return for annual fees of up to $22,000.

Tony Abbott has today ruled out a “Federal” ICAC investigation to examine allegations of financial impropriety.

;D ;D ;D


I can't believe the idiots actually believed all the crap he came up with pre election?

He even told them that unless he puts it in writing he's lying. 

I have to admit, I am enjoying watching the libs unravel ......  I can't wait until they knife Abbott (its only a question of 'when', not 'if' ) ;D ;D ;D

Yep,

Hes a big spending socialist.
Then again labor are abbott plus 5 % spend
Greens are abbott plus 15 % spend.

So he's still evil. He just looks slightly better when you look at the alternatives

John see my post in Tax and Levy about the liberal party dumping Abbott as leader

They betrayed the country by voting for The Simian, subsequently I have little or no sympathy for them.

They were suckered into voting for this Ship of Fools, for all the wrong reasons, egged-on all the way
by the borderline-criminal Murdoch. They threw away a functioning government over nothing but a
deliberate misquote and a mass of blatant, seething lies about the state of the economy that any fairly
bright 14-year-old could have seen through.

No, they sowed the wind, now let them reap the whirlwind. (Apologies to 'Bomber' Harris).

The Reds have packed up and gone home, matey.

You're about three decades too late.

As for Abbott being a socialist.... LOLOL!!!!

He's anything BUT.

Abbott may not be a socialist,  but he is definately from the  "big government" side.  High tax, high spending.

This is the worst sort of government, because the cost of collecting tax, and spending is inefficient. You loose 20 to 30% in "administrative" charges.   Far better to leave the money in the punters pocket.

He's left of Ayn Rand, so he must be a socialist apparently

I didn't vote for Abbott, said all along he'd be no good.

I'm not fussed if they have to include a few unsavory things at budget time.

Making people that can afford things themselves, pay for them, sounds fine in my book.

The tax increase.... :-/....i'd look at the fuel rebate for miners 1st.

He's cut his PPL payments which is a good move (unless your a smacking moron that only cares about what "promises" have been broken.)

I would also keep the CT, but keep it as a tax.

Would have kept the MRRT as well.

Should be an interesting budget. :)

That's why i didn't vote for Abbott ( i actually voted Greens).

And i thought Gillard was a resolute leader that was let down by and undermined by her gutless party and colleagues.

No, they'd never knife him, like you said, they can't, although they've got egg on their faces already with the pre election broken promises.

He could always bung on a terminally ill act, then make a miraculous recovery later on.....after all he's got god on his side to reverse such misfortunes.

A lot of people have said this over the last few days. I'm surprised that Christine Milne is not prime minister.

So? What have 5 million people told you this recently? ::)

Same thing happened with Labroador.... many Labor people turned against them in their last stint..

All this shows is that neither party is fit to govern here... and that both need to lift their game substantially and get away from schoolyard ideologies and other nonsense.

No.  You need correction, so here it is:

Abbott and Hockey are the frontrunners when it comes to 'unintelligent', 'disgusting' and 'callous'

I'd be happy if Abbott really karked it, as opposed to the suggestion he could fake a terminal illness

Abbott is Satan in my opinion

But as you seem to know so much about him, pray tell --- why does he hate Aussies so much?  And when did he begin hating Aussies so much?

Abbott hate for Australians began when an Aussie girl wiped herself with him and had a child due to an overcrowded bed. So destroying his chances of a Priesthood. His hate for Australians can be seen in his never paying a penny (cent) for the raising of his child.

I’ll just confer with my book of “brain dead answers for brain dead questions” and get back to you.

I’ll also try to unravel your conundrum of people hating people, with your desire to see the PM dead.

It’s a similar book to the above mentioned.

Malcolm has no credibility left after what he's done to the NBN. His becoming leader wouldn't change
my vote to the Con-alition. It's far too late for anything like that.

The rot, the cancer that's been spreading since at least 1996, has metastised throughout the party.

They ALL have to go, and I do NOT mean into Opposition. I mean out, altogether.

Mr Abbott opposing the flood levy (temporary) and calling it a tax!!!

http://www.theland.com.au/news/agriculture/agribusiness/general-news/abbott-at-odds-with-nsw-on-flood-levy/2484783.aspx NSW Roads Minister Duncan Gay has called on the federal government to impose a flood levy as it did after the Queensland floods. But Mr Abbott, who opposed the Queensland levy last year, said he would oppose any flood levy. "The Coalition thinks that the ordinary contingencies of government should be met out of the ordinary funding of government," Mr Abbott said.

Quote:

http://www.news.com.au/national/no-excuse-for-flood-tax-abbott/story-e6frfkvr-1225996614190 Mr Abbott said Ms Gillard will face a voter backlash. "The Prime Minister is pitching it as a mateship tax even though mateship is about helping people, not taxing them," he said. "Mates choose to help; they're not coerced. Mateship comes from people, not from government. People resent being ordered to pay what they'd gladly give of their own volition especially by a government so reckless with taxpayers' money. "Invoking a disaster to justify a tax, compounds the allegedly wooden demeanour that Julia Gillard showed during the floods with a tin ear afterwards." He conceded the federal government will have to cover the lion's share of the repair bill for damaged infrastructure but said money could be found elsewhere. "Flood victims simply can't be without the roads and the railways which are necessary for modern life," he said. "(The bill) will run into billions of dollars but that's no excuse for the flood tax ... there's about $2 billion uncommitted in various funds." Mr Abbott urged Ms Gillard to drop the tax for the "spirit of national unity".

A liar should have a good memory.
