All aboard the ghost train for Labor's Mediscare campaign

Labor's warnings of the privatisation of Medicare hold no water but play on voter fears about the Coalition

Election 2016: Medicare privatisation claims a 'gross misrepresentation', Tony Shepherd says

The businessman who chaired the Coalition's 2013 Commission of Audit says the Opposition's claims that the Government plans to privatise Medicare are a "gross misrepresentation".

Turnbull's saying that now. He as well, also wants electronic voting

We don't want electronic voting.

We should have a vote on it.

Took him long enough. Now it's time for the Federal government to prosecute the QLD branch of the ALP for those disgraceful, fraudulent Medicare text messages.

How were they fraudulent?

Be specific.

You already know the answer.

Nobody has been able to give an answer.

How were they fraudulent, Booby?

This wasn't a schoolboy prank where one person sent another a fake message.

This is about perhaps millions of SMS messages being paid for & sent out.
How did they get all the phone numbers?
Where did the money to pay for all that come from?
Who devised the plan?
Who invented the false text?
Who ordered it?

Tell you what worries me more is reports of actual people ringing elderly voters and telling their Medicare benefits would end if they voted LNP.

I get that both sides use scare tactics but really, scaring dear old ladies on the phone.

I know an old lady who voted Labor because she was scared about medicare.

Good on her.

She did the right thing.

Yeah, a bit like back in the old days when people willingly joined the union to stave off a broken arm. Cheesy

Nothing like it.

Phoning an old dear late at night and scaring them is a bit off, no?

Yes.

Is that what happened?

Heard a few reports about it. Does it surprise you? Pollies on both sides are C words.

The message I've seen doesn't claim to come from Medicare.

If there is another one that I haven't seen, could you post a pic of it?

Take Sad Sack Shorty out with the garbage.

And the dumb Death Wish Labor party are gunna KEEP this drongo as their "LEADER"!!!!!!

Gee the Lefties must be really impressed that the union controlled puppet that conned and dudded them and has put their treasured WELFARE in GRAVE RISK by losing the election has not been carried out in a box.

Busty Billy will guarantee the Labor Party will remain in Opposition for at least the next 20 years or until Busty Billy is assassinated.

Hear that 2nd hand leaky Asylum boats are going real cheap up north over the pond.
