So sneaky little Kevin needs time to run around with band aids, plunging the million holes in the S.S. Labor.

Hallelujah , the Titanic lives! But only just.

The more time that Kevin takes, the more he will be revealed as a little dancing pony with no substance. His track record is abysmal, what evidence is there to suggest that he has anything new in his bag. Only the faces have changed, it is still a greatly divided Party and is hanging on by its rocky old legs.

Abbott needs to come in with the sword and give Labor a quick clean kill, then he can get on with repairing the Country, I don't envy him that job.

So if the longer it goes on the better for Abbott, why do you care if he hasnt declared a date as yet?

Because he knows the exact opposite is true Wink

And welcome back Verge, it will be nice to have a sensible centre right poster, I hope the hiatus was by choice not thru misfortune.

Purely through choice.

I decided to make the comeback as I do enjoy a bit of political banter and I love seeing people get whipped up in a frenzy over the issues that truly dont matter (boat people, same sex marriage) all the while ignoring the big ticket issues like Gonski and the NDIS.

The thought of an Abbott lead government scares the living crap out of me, but sadly the change to Rudd has happened so late it is now too late for the Libs to change to Turnbull then we could have had a great PM.

And why not, if you will permit me; why shouldn’t I, if you will permit me; spend my first week as prime minister, should that happen, on this, on your, country - Abbott with the Garma People Aug 13

There is no need to call an election yet.

We have until November 30.

No one is hiding anything.

There is nothing to see here.

So the announcement of a sept 14 election date turns out to be just another failed labor announcement. the economy stumbles under the paralysis of an election campaign for the past 6 months only to find it wasnt an election campaign after all.. ONly labor could possibly mess so much up at the same time.

Yes and the economy is doing great with the uncertainty thanks to Tony's SCRAP THIS and SCRAP THAT sloganeering.

love that hypocrisy... you complain with the libs dont have policies and when they announce on that involves change (imagine that!) you complain yet again. I have a lot of business contacts and the major discusion point among them is to get this damned election done and dusted because business is suffering by the indecision just as ever election campaign does. the trouble is at this rate, the election campaign could end up be almost the entire year!!! labor stuffups because they are more interesting in political advantage than the economy.

Sloganeering isn't policy. SCRAP THIS and SCRAP THAT leaves uncertainty because there is very limited to NO policy to back up the slogan, leaving business sitting around trying to understand whats going on. Tony needs to stop hiding and come out with his complete plans so that Australian business and the electorate can actually go through what is bound to be a jigsaw and work out exactly how f**cked we're going to be afterwards.

melielongtime, don't you get tired of writing that sort of garbage? Sept 14 was Gillard's whom, I think you actually know, is no longer PM. The election date is now Rudd's to nominate and just like all his predecessors, he will name the date when he wants to as is his right.

The red-headed bitch was the first to name a date that wasnt actually the date and 9 months in advance to boot. So the economy goes into election-mode paralysis only for 6 months later the election campaign is now OFF. And worse, it is subject to the decision-free zone that is Rudd. What are the chances that Rudd is even able to make that decision without the GG doing it for him? Do you recall Rudd actually making a decision in the past without 15 enquiries?

Better to have enquiries than do what wankjob women hating tony does and sit on the toilet until a thought bubble appears.

If that's the major discussion point I'd suggest that they're not very good business people.

The election will be held by November 30 this year.

There's no uncertainty about that.

So what your saying is Tony Abbott should have voted with Labor for an ETS back in 2010?

Is that it, new leaders must abide by what the old leaders promised?

That's debatable 40% of my business is government based its ticking along nicely, but I'll accept every industry has its own requirements, but its hardly the WHOLE economy

Then you've got no worries have you, the only thing that changes is the election date & that can ONLY be pushed out to the 30/11/12, which again his already ruled out 3 Saturdays both footy code grand final w/ends & the 14/9/13.
there's no time to form committees or have inquiries

So relax, remember that Fear you said you couldn't see, read your post.

The little dancing pony in Canberra is trying to find a date when all the planets align so that he can have another 3 years of stuffing this Country over.

The longer it is until the Election, the better the public have a chance to get over Kevin's little Halo act and see him for what he is...

An incompetent who has butchered our border protection and who has run us into 300 billion dollars debt to the Chinese.

Red red red. Name One PM that has not decided the timing of an election? Or shut up. You sound much brighter when you don't post.

Rudd in 2010 and Gillard in 2013

Wow, you are on your stupid pills. Ok I'll entertain your stupidity, it's akin to saying Turnbull will decide when this election is, see? It's stupid. The PM THAT IS IN POWER WHEN AN ELECTION IS DUE CALLS THE DATE, FMD, has it come to this that we have to change your smacking nappy for you?

The election is when it is and only a fool would get their knickers in a knot over a month here or there.
Im putting my money on the date being Sept 14th to be announced once Kevin and his Ministers have got policies and strategies bedded down.
We all know that no matter who gets in that there will be massive cuts in govt spending so anyone with a business that relies on govt contracts had better get plan B out of the bottom drawer.

The smell of fear is strong in here!

It's permeated the entire forum.

Fascinating to watch.

You should see the Austerity post for desperation..I'm surprised you haven't called it yet.

Or do you only get ya knickers all knotted when its the other team Grin

"ya knickers all knotted"?

What are you talking about?

I'm not upset about anything: quite the opposite.

I'm thoroughly enjoying watching the Libs panic.

It's wonderful.

this supposed liberal 'panic' is interesting. would you care to point out a single post that has panic in it. The margin has shrunk as predicted but Abbott remains firmly in front so not only am I not panicking I dont see anyone else on her doing so or in public life. IN fact I dont see any analysts even predicting Rudd will win.

And yet the Lib supporters are fearful.

It's delightful.

lovely circular argument. you say there is panic because... you say there is panic. It is at least consistent with your previous posts on illegal vs unlawful. I suppose you ahve a new definition of 'panic' as well as your new definition of 'unlawful'.

An election wasn't officially called.

The Prime Minister will call one when he sees fit.

I predict it will be a Saturday.

the economy deigns to differ. The economy responded to the sep 14 election called in January. But at least we hae yet another labor lie to add to the very long list.

if you were ever in business esp small business you would know that everytime an election is called, business slows down. Every time. I dont know why, but that doesnt stop it from being true.

apparently it WAS policy in 2007 when it was 'SCRAP WORKCHOICES'. and remember that there was no actual IR policy at the time, just scrap workchoices.

so... wrong again.

surely you are not (insert mocking laugh) actually defending the Rudd methodology of how not to make a decision of any kind while working you and your staff to death doing so? EVERYBODY who has worked with Rudd has said that he is incapable of making any decisions other than those that directly impact him and his ego. REmember the 'greatest moral challeng of our time'??
