The impossible promises of our leader

Often when I research the topics for this segment I’ll dig deep into an issue, contact sources and seek out alternative information.  For anyone interested in that additional information I’ll often links, background and additional material on my daily posts to my blog at www.turnitupmike.blogspot.com 

Anyone who wants more information on any topic I cover can start there, but today I don’t expect that too many people will have to do too additional research to understand what I’m saying.

This week the experts have blown the whistle telling Australians that Green renewable energy and carbon trading are both going to cost Australians a lot more than the government is telling is

while at the same time

Julia Gillard’s no carbon tax election promises must surely be put side by side with her promise that if Australia does send refugees to Malaysia their Human Rights will be protected -

Turn It Up. 

 I’m Michael Robinson.

PM Will Not Find Refuge From Lousy Policy

The only good thing that has come from this recently announcement that the Gillard Government plans to do a 5 for one refugee swap with the Malaysians is that it has put Malaysia’s appalling human rights reputation front and centre.

But for a moment wind the calendar  back a few years and put John Howard in the Prime Minister’s seat with a Liberal government, of course they would not have even considered such a lousy policy, lousy for Australia and lousy for the people affected by this policy.

But imagine it for a moment, if they had. 

They would have of course been faced with strong and vocal criticism from the then Opposition.

Julia Gillard would have been front and centre of the critics condemning a Liberal Government for even considering sending refugees to a country like Malaysia with their appalling human rights record regarding those seeking refuge.

Yet with Julia Gillard now in the Prime Minister’s seat somehow she expects people to think this lousy policy shouldn’t be criticised  because Labor doesn’t get things wrong.

... Turn It Up
