Down as a percentage - but still up in a time when - had it not been for high iron ore prices they wouldn’t have had a budget surplus etc.

I’m not pro Lib or green or lab. I think they’re all terrible atm. But saying libs were shit so labor can also be shit as long as it’s slightly less shit is really a sad indication of auspol.
Sorry please show me the IR reforms which were needed versus the ones which now effectively legislate the role of the union who were becoming obsolete.
Their IR reforms do nothing at all for productivity and do everything for improving the bargaining power of employees. Amazing you say! Yes except that high wages get passed to consumers through …..higher prices. And Australia is already struggling to compete globally on price - best add most cost in.
They’re a terrible government and that’s not labor or lib point of view. It’s populist muppets who wants to be viewed favourable by the general public and their union mates (and backers) rather than actually govern
