Gutless leadership has been fatal

LNP have just f##### this place ever since they got elected

They were told by everybody with a pulse that the economy was sputtering.. they did nothing, except what they did do, is pander to the Murdoch / Real Estate lobby group and demand action from the RBA so they could protect their ridiculous surplus

Again and again, the chorus got louder.. fiscal stimulus, fiscal stimulus but oh no Scotty's Surplus was untouchable .. Scotty didn't give a toss that no one was spending, wages were static if not going backwards relative to inflation and that business were not investing in expansion because his surplus was still on and house prices were going up ! Not a care in the world life was sweet !

Scotty, Peter, Josh were so busy slapping themselves on the back and holidaying celebrating rising property prices on the back of four consecutive wasted rate cuts that they forced the RBA to deliver, when their whole house of cards imploded in the form of bushfires and the devastating economic impact on those regions and of course the tourism dollar, mainly affecting vulnerable people and businesses in country towns etc.. not their metropolitan blue chip suburbs where prices were still rising .. damn that was inconvenient

Scotty Peter & Josh called in the Army, put it on Facebook and thought 'we have nailed it this time.. just chin up and get through till everyone forgets about the damn fires and that climate bull####.. just get our image right, invoke team Australia and we're done, we can get on with saving our surplus'

All the people that voted LNP must have by now, started to wonder, have we been sold a pup ? A surplus pup

We are now facing this Covid19 with no bullets left in the chamber thanks to Scotty Pete & Josh .. Their selfish and stubborn determination to drive towards surplus could have consequences beyond anyone's imagination .. The RBA should have actually maintained a neutral bias at 1.5 and let the economy run its course .. They knew it was the wrong form of stimulus and said as much.. over and over again.. In the end the rate cuts did absolutely diddly squat except falsely pump elevated RE and destroy once and for all, any hope of a return on savings

It is just the pinnacle of arrogance to stand back and watch retirees and those that have done the right thing ? and saved for a rainy day face the bleakest return on savings in living memory and yet continue to push and demand action from the RBA ..

This is all on you LNP and the Murdoch / Real Estate lobby group that you sold out to

There are no more levers left
