"THE Federal Budget is in even worse shape than previously thought, with Prime Minister Julia Gillard to reveal today a huge hit to revenue of $12 billion this year. "

For those interested in Qld politics, Newman will (proportionally) show a larger hit to his revenue than the Feds.
He's destroyed the qld economy for at least the next 2-3 years.
If you want to set up a service based business in Qld, fagetaboutit...demand has fallen off a cliff.
If you want to make money in the property sector (cept for maybe Mackay), fagetaboutit....demand has fallen off a cliff.
What the above has done has pushed Newman's payroll tax, stamp duty revenues off the cliff which means his deficit has now doubled.
I don't propose Qld ALP being voted back in, I'm just proposing the Newman Goverment have been a monumental disaster in addressing the economy.
