Flying pigs have been going unchecked in recent times. My party and I plan to invest heavily in tightening the control of Australia's airspace before someone is killed by a flying pig or indeed, shat upon from a great height.

That is the responsibility of the Government.

I think the reality is if people don't vote against the major parties eventually when the average bloke can't afford food for his family, we'll end like a 3rd world country... the only way out will be a civil war... like the one america fought in 1880 to abolish slavery and throw of the yoke of the european banking cartels. If it ever comes to that I doubt things will go as well this time considering the forces the government has at its disposal....

I think there will be a record for the amount of people who failed to vote this election. More people would probably rather take the fine then decide who to vote for.

The internet filter that Labor will introduce will kill your net faster than anything in the world. And if Labor actually does bring in 1Gbps net connections that do not cost $1000 per month for 5 gigs of download, I will eat my boxer shorts.
Sorry John, but this industry is my bread and butter, and my advice is to find a nice dressing to go with your shorts

The 'interwebs' is only a small fraction of what the NBN in capable of providing this country. The libs already put us 10 years behind in this department. We can't afford to let Telstra keep the stranglehold on comms in this country. We will be stuck in the dark ages for a very long time.

Edit:
Oh, also I forgot to add that it is unlikely the filter will get through. It has already currently been put on hold by the tool Conroy, pending clarification on classifications. Libs have stated they will vote it down, and there are other Labor ministers who would prefer to see it made opt-in, and have the parents take responsibility.

Not knocking that the NBN is good. I want it.

It was more of a clarification of do people understand the meme pictures they post. Or are they posting to just be cool.

Posting pictures implying that under a Liberal government the internet will be slower than it is now, is just silly imo.

As for the dressing to go with my shorts... I'm still waiting for consumer data price/plans to be announced

No i'm not a historian, i do read alot in my spare time though. I'm quite happy with how it was put also

Not kidding Kato, history as a history of repeating itself, alot.... So unless something monumental has changed (which by the current state of things it certainly looks like it hasn't) then that would be where its headed.

Do some reading, see what you can dig up. i'm sure you'll be surprised...
