CARRYING THE TORCH OF LABOR VALUES AND VISION

BILL SHORTEN MP for Maribyrnong in Victoria

TOOK TIME OUT TO VISIT THE TRADES HALL IN IPSWICH TO CHEER ON THE TROOPS IN THE CAMPAIGN TO RE-ELECT OUR SHAYNE NEUMANN MP FOR BLAIR.

Here is my spontaneous effort to record his words - it does turn out upwards!

SOMERSET BRANCH MEMBER THANKED FOR HER MIGHTY PHONE-POLLING EFFORTS

MY DAUGHTER SAID I AM RUSTED ON LABOR...

I let Bill know that the ABC's survey at  http://www.abc.net.au/votecompass/  confirms what many members Left of centre feel, me(and my husband) as GREENS, with Christine Milne sharing my top leader position with Kevin Rudd on 83%!!!

The Minister questioned their methods, obviously, but I let him know our distress with the ALP was on Refugee policy, and gay marriage resistance. On a lighter note I said my views were more aligned with Melbourne but we had to flee from Kennett's Government, economic refugees.

As I said to Shayne later on, what I want is a Labor Government. It's the only time the country progresses, but Christine Milne(Greens) expresses every word as true to my own, which is why I support Labor for Refugees - there are enough people of like-mind who are fighting within the Party for humanitarian principles to be secured - following the UN Conventions we are signatory to.

SEPTEMBER 14th 2013 - ALP FOR ME

TRUMPED AGAIN TONY! OUR CLEVER PRIME MINISTER SAYS PUT THIS IN YOUR DIARY & LET'S SEE WHAT YOU'RE REALLY MADE OF...

• I would have had such an idea, dampen the incessant questions from the media about the timing of the next election, and making us all irritable.
• Great for ALP branch members and their M.P.s to plan and prepare the campaign  at the grass roots.
• Her confidence and authority in governing will always put (misogynist) Tony Abbott off-balance. It's not all about the power of testesterone action man for the cameras like the Russian, Putin or the Everyman he claimed to be at the Press Club.

      February will be fun: 

Shayne Neumann M.P.Blair and I
ready to argue the ALP case for continuing Government.

Sunday 17th February is my first date in the diary as a Fifty Year Old local Somerset branch member at the Fernvale Markets, assisting Shayne Neumann M.P.for Blair at his regular gig listening and responding to the people - informing them of the great reforms the Gillard Labor Government has done even with a minority government, and what it wants to fulfill:

Like former Labor Prime Ministers before her who steered our country into a modern, principled nation with Universal Health Care, and free education for working-class kids, our current P.M. is determined to put the National Disability Insurance Scheme next to Medicare so everybody can achieve their potential. A FAIR GO BY FAIRER TAXES PLEASE! It's proved that the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
Rich business man Dick Smith admitted to broadcaster Philip Adams last year on the ABC that many rich people he knows don't redistribute enough of their wealth to help break down the barriers to wealth creation. 
We will have to wait for the May budget.

Since this, the LNP Government proved what Tories do -

demolish the hope of equity by refusing to participate in
 a Trial of the NDIS

 because they don't see any value in it or us.

If it's all about TRUST Tony - I trust the Independents have found they were wise to go with Julia Gillard to form Government and put her in the Lodge. 

TURN THE SCREWS on the Coalition, JULIA, ever so slowly, as Keating would say! because the Federal LNP would be as short-sighted and discriminatory as Queenslanders have discovered to their dismay.
