Swan Budget I
http://avatarbriefs.blogspot.com/ 2008/ 05/ swan-budget-i.htmlHo hum. Guess we have to do this. The first Rudd/Swan budget. Not announced yet and no leaks from Treasury this year, as the government has been doing its own leaking - it's called spin & softening-up the punters, trickle, trickle, trickle, trickle.

Different dog, different tricks
http://www.greyleads.com/ current-affairs/ different-dog-different-tricks/The change of government in Canberra has brought a marked change in rhetoric that has been stemming from Canberra.

http://www.rightpulse.com/ archives/ 88Well you maybe aware of the drama that has unfolded in NSW regarding the ALP privatisation of the electricity utilities and the union opposition to it.

Boring Bullies
http://undeadfiles.blogspot.com/ 2008/ 05/ boring-bullies.html1. Boring I am underwhelmed yet not surprised. The WA Budget was largely predictable and left a lot to be desired.
