Strike me pink! I went from Cristchurch (Wigram), to Chatham Islands in Freighter. 1970 from memory, it took all day, or most of it.
The spin about Bluescope exports is a furfy. They exported fcuk all except roof iron to detention centres. $1Billion loss in 12 months vs Gillard's $100 million to fix the problem. Work to welfare- everyone is dependant upon the government- great socialist dream pulled- wanked- and dusted down in Johnsons baby powder. Feel good stuff.
Just a wild suggestion, because it's been done before. Why can't this mob of fiscal geniiiiiii devalue the dollar or impose tarrifs on inports we grow- manufacture- produce here to make us at least locally competetive.
This government is an alarming misadventure. At best a product of dysfunctional voters from a memory lapsed dysfunctional population possibly too young to remember previous Labor "experiments".
