Joe Hockey is keen to sell this budget as The Fair Budget. The Have-A-Go budget. The Happy, shiny, bright $10 BILLION dollar budget. He dubiously channelled Monty Python as he urged journalists not to look on the “dark side of life” jazz hands…
Don’t forget, the Government was firmly on the dark side last year with their budget “emergency”, but that was a spectacular failure so they’ve decided to try a completely different tack and they’re now the happy, shiny, bright-siders bringing you The Fair Budget. Totally consistent and not confusing. Did someone say early election?
Anyways…..
