  1. Really? As leader of the opposition the Monk set a very high standard for all Governments to follow. No one would have to wonder too hard what he would of said about the Government of the day if he was still in opposition with regards to Holden no longer manufacturing in Australia. If he was honest with his many past criticisms about the then Government of the day and we all know he is only out for political points scoring and has very little to no substance with regards to so many issues. Well may be the rusted on Library supporter here may not know that he was actually doing, but the rest of us do. Of course the car industry is in such a mess because of a number of factors that outside of the Government of the day control. As in the end its all about producing vehicles at the lowest possible price for all car makers. The loss of tariffs over the years has meant that local manufactories who pay reasonable employee benefits are competing against overseas companies that don't. No rocket science here to determine where all manufacturing will move to in the end. The only options that any Government has is to reintroduce protection to the car industry. Although this will have a negative impact on the Australian economy as its trading partners will likely do the same. Another approach would be to provide heavy subsidies to the car industry, but that opens the issue of why the government is supporting one industry over another. So the real question must be asked if the Car Industry is not sustainable, why should it be supported at all? Would it be better to spend money on other industries that Australia could be a world leader in and actual make real money from? I agree there should not be political points scoring on this issue but Australian has such low quality politicians in both sides of politics it will always happen. Main reason I used this issue is to demonstrate the Monks hypocrisy. DC I was going to respond to your negative comment but simple could not be bothered. If that comment made you feel good at the time so be it.
  2. OD I just heard there is the Black Plague in Madagascar! I don't think it would be safe for you over there. Between the various diseases and riots I think I will need to go to work to have a proper holiday.
  3. It just shows my real care factor with regards to the spelling of his name
  4. Agree its all their fault But I want to hear how the Monk explains his latest failure!
  5. Sorry Choke but I had no time or trust when it comes to Julia. Once they lie, I lose all respect. It gotten to a stage where they don't care if they get caught lying these days.
  6. Well we may as well allow drugs in the AFL as all a player needs to do is claim they had no idea what was given to them. OMG is that an allowable defense, the war on drug cheats is over and may no mistake the cheats have won. Surely Zero tolerance to drugs is the only way?
  7. Sorry WJ, it appears I did not answer your question. Yes I was kidding LOL

  14. OD I was told by a number of DL posters that winning is not important ROFL :blink: :blink:
  15. I sure someone commented on a Filth Membership of $50. If that is indeed true, no wonder they have a high membership. But surely such a low membership fee would give you access to very little benefits.
  16. I hope you are right BB But I have no faith in the previous Management The MFC must be the most investigated club in VFL/AFL history Even BBO had been suspended from DL for doing the wrong thing!
  17. 1 MFC Support is worth 1,000 Filth Supporters So where we lose in number we make up in quality :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
