I can’t even think to imagine that state this country would be in had Labor formed government. Just imagine.
Yeh, just imagine, a PM who wasn't on holiday in Hawaii then lied about coming back straight away and who was so out of touch while people's houses were on fire... a PM who would have acted on the atrocious state of aged care, which Scotty ripped $2B out of when he was Treasurer, we wouldn't have had hundreds of deaths in the aged care facilities, people with wounds with ants in them, malnourished, ill fed and have untrained people beating and tossing elderly around because private enterprise is so good at running things, not to mention a Minister for Aged Care who barely knows the name of his own department, certainly doesn't know anything about aged care or the state of it and would lose his job in any other realm of employment for incompetence...
A government that would have bailed VA out... so it's OK that the LNP bail out ZL but just not VA...
We also wouldn't have had people suiciding over the robodebt non-debts and the Commonwealth dragged into the courts and ordered to abandon the scheme which it characterised as nothing more than extortion... we wouldn't have had a megalomaniac 'Minister for Au Pairs' trying to turn us into a police state by having the military be allowed to spy on citizens, journalists being locked up for doing their jobs even when inquiries prove what they said was right, we wouldn't have had more and more so-called security laws to remove rights for something that is a minuscule threat compared with domestic violence... a destruction of the Superannuation system which is the envy of the world... yeah, just imagine if Labour had won...
What a mess we'd be in...
