    When did you remove the 'bull' from your name dust? Your bias is embarrassing. If you were unbias you'd be having a go at that poor Green who has absoultely no idea. Started off so cocky but by the end had her tail between her legs cause she couldn't think for herself.

    As for Palmer, why wouldn't he try and fight for his industry? If someone decided to tax you more, would you just sit there and accept it or would you argue for your own benefit? He's not out there as someone unique to most people in that respect. His main point was very valid and that is, why did Gillard do a deal with the 3 big miners without consultation of the rest of the mining industry? Our Labor 'friend' on the panel couldn't answer that one.

    Anyway, I enjoy Q&A, it is good to mix up the serious side with some humour, and in the end, its obvious that all of them have their own interests at heart and their strong beliefs.

    I thought the most positve aspect to come out of the show was the common belief that a 'slush' fund would be a great way to benefit from the mining of minerals for the LONG term. I firmly believe after watching the pros and cons of the show that there should be a focus on implementing this and laws put in place to prevent future governments from opportunisticly grabbing from this fund.

    There is so much hatred here purely because of a person's political persuasion, its ridiculous.
