Labor Blog 6 Sept 2010 With Labor Member Comments
moderators Err Umm Err moderate the comments allowed here in the future.
1. All of the commentators appear to be members of the blog-host, ie the Australian Labor Party
[Query, the comments facility seem restricted to members only?]
2) Do the comments contain more honesty, intelligence and heart than the original blog?
3) Would Australia be better or worse governed if our parlia'ment were filled by 150 citizens drawn at
'random' [For example via a tattslotto style draw, or a Vietnam-War style conscription process]
without the costs and bother of our current electoral processes such as 21 August 2010?
4) Did:
I deliberately publish a wide range of people and ideas. See for example my tweets at
www.twitter.com/JamesJohnsonCHR . See also the library of blogs, articles and exhibits I have
stored online at www.scribd.com/JamesJohnsonCHR . Sometimes these are people or ideas I like
a lot. Sometimes these are ideas I like only a little, or fractionally. Sometimes these are ideas that
I really don't like at all. For me, Freedom of Speech is a 2-way dynamic – it means I listen to,
respect and (hopefully) provide balanced commentary on all sorts of thoughts and ideas – to
encourage and stimulate free speaking and free speakers, as well as (hopefully) stimulating fresh
ideas for myself and for others.

Together, we have agreed to policies which promote the national interest. We have also agreed on
principals of transparent and accountable government. Importantly, we have agreed to address
climate change and that Australians need further action on dental care which should be included in
the 2011 Budget.
The signing of today’s agreement proves that together we can work in good faith to reach a consensus
to form the basis for stable and effective government. You can read the agreement here.
In addition to my discussions with the Australian Greens I have been in negotiations with the
Independents. Today, three of them have been briefed by Treasury and Finance who have outlined
the costings of our policies as well as those of the Opposition.
I want a transparent and accountable government, so I will ask the Independents if the costings of our
policies can be released publically. I will also call on Mr Abbott to do the same so for the first time
Australians can see the costings of his election policies.
Yesterday at the National Press Club I outlined my belief that Labor is best positioned to form a
stable and effective government. The agreement reached today proves that if we’re willing to work
hard to find common ground we can reach consensus in the interests of all Australians.

Sengerer:"What we needs is responsible scientists and engineers who will work with us to fix the
mess. The rest is not relevant.". That says it all. But to get the system to filter the good and the social
scientists and engineers and provide them a platform to create needs to be created. Half the time the
paper pushing accountants and lawyers are either getting high on combination of power and
chardonay and refuse to come out of the glass house to acknowledge that they are to support the
sytem.Not booby trap the theme. @Rayzor:Mate the real story of the dino eco theory has many cover
ups. But facts are many,thruth is one.We need to form an alternate resilient responsible renewable
rejuvenated economy.Without depending on "Oil". Possible.Very very much so.But the initial
stumbling block is to side with that one vision.Of Building Australia Clean,green and rich.Fair,free
and forward.The dream time excess of the fossil freedom is a illusion. Advance Australia Fair.

so the two most influential women in politics shake hands and form an unholy alliance, ie, gillard and
bobbie brown! hah and arrogance is what becomes her! the welsh bloody git! read how she and rudd
treated me below..... part one...... when i asked julia gillard for an answer to my legitimate her
reply....."NOTHING"! after several ignored emails i sent one to rudd! his reply "NOTHING"! so after
becoming sick of being bloody well ignored by scumbags i sent him a particularly scathing email
which *****ing attracted his attention BIG *****ING TIME! he despatched federal police officers to
my door not just once but twice! oh yes i'm certainly happy with you labor toads! she alone cost you
lot my vote! but the strangest thing.....i am treated like a leper in a third world country and ignored by
all the so-called "HONORABLE" pollies! did i say third world country??? well it is as i live like
complete ***** from day to day! and i certainly can not remember being told that i was having my
pension increased by 1500 dollars per annum! well i think it must be so because the housing
commission increased my rent by 30 dollars a week! so you see mr brumby i am now worse off than i
was 3 months ago! could you ask tanya plibersik or someone who knows what the hell is going on to
contact and explain how nit is that my standard of living is not as *****ing standard at all???? part
two..... and hasn't the standard of teachers hit rock bottom! when i was at school at least teachers
taught stuff....not like today where they are too worried over the girls wearing make-up or how they
wear their hair or if they have studs or whatever! todays teachers are some of the dumbest but most
arrogant *****s around! take that word "GOT" for instance.....we had it drummed into us that we
should NEVER use that word but find alternatives, but you look at most of our politicians (and i use
that word loosely) who make speeches or give interviews on national television and how often do
these feral scumbags use that word!!!! when illiterate people gain power like these dumb teachers that
enter politics these days what hope have we to advance our country when scum run it? see what
happens when teachers enter politics? our morals, our ethics, our literacy and numeracy skills hit sub-
rock-bottom! to use your favorite word GET on it!

Actually a Labor-Greens agreement will prevent the Coalition from forming the next government and
I want to see Gillard in office again for the next three years before I'll vote Liberal in the next
election.

@Sengerer:"I can send a spare copy of the Constitution including some relevant HIgh Court
judgements to West Bengal or Utah if you want, "Sauman"? " Please dont bother. Postage costs.
Age.com version available.On Com.Both in Utah and in the cyber slums of City of Joy. Thanks
anyway.
