They won’t get the senate, which means no axe the tax. They won’t balance the budget, which means no back in the black. They’re not going to find a lot of public service fat to trim, so they won’t end the Labor waste.
In fact, they’ve announced HUGE spending on middle-class welfare, so they’ll create waste of their own.
The incoming government has tied its own noose. If there’s a budget emergency now, what’s it going to be like in a couple of years time?
Abbott has been an excellent opposition leader, but he’s now in exactly the same position as Labor, and committed to spending much more.
There won’t be a double dissolution election for 3 years, and in that time, Abbott won’t be making a lot of friends - outside News Ltd.
He won’t be popular, but I don’t think he’ll be all that unpopular. All he’s promised is more of the same.
There won’t be a spill in favour of Turnbull. The Libs have learned from the last 6 years. How could you not learn?
People will give Abbott a go because they have very low expectations - and Abbott won’t let them down.
The sun is about to go behind the clouds. Even Hockey’s gone dark.
We are now in a period of low growth, increasing unemployment, and if I’m not mistaken, the beginning of massive increases in temperature and environmental problems.
Abbott will need to go back on everything he’s said over the last 4 years, or be the wrong man in the wrong job.
We’ll see.
