How stupid do they think the public are?

And this incredibly courageous women would know........

This is the end game, the box and dice, the be all and end all.......its work choices.........

It sounds like a carnival fair in Canberra. "Roll up, roll up, if your profits are not bulging, come on down and put your hand up, cause we are going to squeeze the nuts of this country"

Everything that happens now will be blamed on the workers of this country supposedly having their snouts in the trough. If history is anything to go by, its sounding like a single term PM every day, greed can be so blind. One can only hope.......

From Yahoo7News,

Liberal MP Sharman Stone accuses Prime Minister Tony Abbott and Treasurer Joe Hockey of lying over SPC - Yahoo!7

"A Liberal backbencher has accused Prime Minister Tony Abbott and Treasurer Joe Hockey of lying about union conditions at SPC Ardmona.
Sharman Stone, the federal Member for the Victorian seat of Murray, says her senior colleagues are using excuses that are "wrong" to justify the decision to reject a bid for $25 million in government assistance from the food processor - which is based in her electorate.
Union-negotiated conditions for workers have come under fire from the Government for being too extravagant, with pay well above the award.
In an extraordinary outburst, Dr Stone says the leaders of her party are deceiving the public debate.
"It's not the truth. That's right, it's lying," she said.
"The independent panel, their own independent panel, I understand recommended that this industry be supported."
This morning on AM, Dr Stone was pressed on her use of the word "lying", and whether she believed Employment Minister Eric Abetz's statement that workers' allowances were "over-generous" also represented a lie.
"Well, you could use that word if you like," she said.
She later added that "it is a complete furphy what is being said about the troubles of this last fruit-preserving industry."
The Prime Minister’s office has declined an ABC request for comment and Mr Hockey’s office has not yet responded.

Hasn't responded??????? Give the guy some time to cook up another interview meltdown. So tell us when you first found out about this one Joe......
