The stench from the black hole

BUDGET week is usually a positive moment for the government sets their plans. But this week’s budget was primarily a non-dominated, but two negatives.
The government’s budget should be positive. Bring a surplus – slim though it may be – is a positive result at a time when many Western economies are crippled by debt. The cuts were particularly smart, and move to block the opposition promised to cut business tax has been rotated properly: corporate taxation will remain the same families, but with low incomes will receive handouts. The original plan would have been better, but if on the wrong side of a two-speed economy is feeling the pinch, this trick can help politically experienced – although, as the survey shows that we publish today, has not made me feel more friendly towards the job. Perhaps even more important for the government in a very short time, the budget – with the exception of the decision on the business tax – wa s broadly welcomed by business and investments.
But for better or worse, the budget has been overwhelmed by the consequences of the Fair Work Australia to report the health services of the Union, in particular the activities of the MP Dobell, Craig Thomson, when he was a union official yet. The report was published on Monday produced a reaction, especially when the other independent MPs, to which the voice of the government, which could jeopardize their future.

The report
forensic dissection of what has been done by HSU officials, and if there is more of a problem for those called into question. It is a task for labor and trade union movement. Results lower position of the movement at once: It seems that those who would fight for the rights of workers with low incomes, instead of wasting money on the high waist. HSU East was to be only a branch of a union, but the status of the Thomson MP – Parliament weakened by the dominant faction of the work, to support the government, even if it excluded from the party – only makes him more of a liability. Although the scandal is not affected HSU senior ranks of government, joins a growing list of Labour failures: The story betrays slippers, with Andrew Wilkie on poker machines, the Australia Day demonstration against Tony Abbott, reneged on a promise of carbon taxes dumping of Kevin Rudd … and so on. Lump them all together and give the voters, fairly or not, the government Gillard. HSU The story adds an element of moral bankruptcy to slip more than usual. Work will begin to smell.
However, the opposition should pause before he followed Thomson in the Parliament. Bob Katter and Tony Windsor have reason to withdraw from Thomson against any move. Together with Rob Oakeshott, will wait the two to address the Thomson House of Representatives on the results of the Fair Work Australia. The house is many things, but it is not a court. Should any decision about the suitability of Thomson serve as an MP does not remain in the hands of a group, in a partisan manner. Thomson is the subject of the allegations, based on the results of an investigation. These statements – and the word may should be noted – they are burdens. What remains to be determined. Until then, it must be presumed innocent Thomson conceded. For Parliament to start picking off one by one would be on the parliamentary basis of the charges against her terrible precedent. The other negative was the reaction against the budget. Tony Abbott, the tactics he used last year, does not offer a detailed alternative, but continued full of a total waste of prime minister. Efforts to promote the language learning in Australian schools – - Its unique new offering is positively worth supporting. We have many times that the lack of knowledge of foreign languages in Australia “One has dangerous language deficits that will affect our prospects for the future argues. But Abbott promised to” work with the states “to the number of students to improve their foreign language skills. Given the enormous – $ 50 billion to some estimates – gap between what was promised and resources available to him, seem these words ambiguous, sometimes even a promise of good intentions, without a backup of dollars suggests. language teaching
aside, this was a disappointing speech that people try many Australians, they are to escape from the growing discontent Labour.
At the end of this week’s budget, the federal policy is overwhelmed by the negative. . voters who are desperately seeking an alternative to work is only offered to a large black hole, it would have the right to say Abbott: I work with all its problems it has been possible to frame a balanced budget why can not we. ‘? / P> we do not with the statement harmful and useless agree Prime Minister and the North Shore can, is not part of the real world that treat their people and therefore less deserving of other Australians.
