‘Rudd the magician’

The Prime Minister fancies himself as a bit of a magician.

Mr Rudd will have us believe that the enormous debt Labor has racked up is not really a problem. His logic is that our net per capita debt is one of the lowest compared to other nations.

Well Mr Rudd, how many $billions is that and how long will it take Australian taxpayers to pay it back?

‘Rudd the magician’ may want to pull a rabbit out of his hat on this issue but he’ll be confronted by an Abbott, and that won’t do him any good.

Kevin’s ten minutes of infamy

“You will have ten minutes. We will have a stop watch.”

A Labor Party advertising agency has been trying to convince various digital youth media that a ten minute interview with Kevin Rudd will interest their audience. But they will only have ten minutes. And there are conditions.

As part of the deal, the media will be ‘encouraged’ to provide inventory on their site for youth-focused election advertising and editorial, produce entertaining content on the theme of the inadequacy of the Liberal NBN plan, and provide access to pro-Labor and pro-NBN talent.

Of course, “The PM will not review the questions/discussion guide”, but the advertising agency will.

I wonder if these questions would make the interview?

With all the cuts to university funding, will students be able to finish their courses?

With so many delays to the NBN, what’s the benefit if it never reaches homes before it’s outdated?

A lot of our readers cannot find a job, and it’s got worse since you were first Prime Minister. Are you really capable of fixing that?

And now that our ten minutes are almost up, aren’t massive cuts to spending and rises in taxation the only solution to paying back the massive government debt you incurred, thereby denying our readers opportunities in the future?

If they get an answer to one question from the Prime Minister in that time they will be lucky.

The Labor Party has denied all knowledge of the advertising agency brief to the media. LOL!

Still no effective response from the opposition leader

While the Prime Minister runs around the country like Caesar celebrating a triumph, there is still no effective response from the opposition leader.

Time is running out Mr Abbott. Stop faffing around and really serve it up to Kevin Rudd. Otherwise, Labor will continue in government because you have no hope of winning the election on current form.
