There is not one thing even approaching genuine about this lot. See my tweets about segways, buggies, scooters, bicycles & cars - the technology is here already! We are years behind the rest of the world due to this government of backward looking Luddites! news_australian Can someone find out what Labor intends to do with the current fuel excise. It mostly funds the roads, so electric cars don't contribute. Will Labor raise fuel excise to 'encourage' people to go electric and maintain road funding? auspol Election2019 electriccars

Labor voters believe government has ‘a money tree’: Kroger | Sky News AustraliaFormer Victorian Liberal Party president Michael Kroger says the Liberals need to challenge the incorrect perception it is a party of spending cuts. \n\nMr Kroger says Labor voters have been taught ‘there is a money tree out there’, thanks to the left-wing party rarely talking about debt and deficit and ‘not being committed to a surplus’. \n\nThe latest Newspoll shows only four per cent of Labor voters believe delivering a surplus is the top priority for the budget, while 71 per cent see spending on services and income tax cuts as most important.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Yeah get CampbellNewman to spread that message Kroger. He cut things in Qld so bad they have never recovered. Promised no job losses and cut thousands even essential staff like nurses. The system now struggles to cope. That's the LIBERAL PARTY people. And wage cuts. Let me think; Cut immigration cut education spending Cut taxes Cut assistance to the poor Cut assistance to elderly Cut spending on housing That’s not like a labor supporter at all. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
