You have your political parties confused Dust. It is really applicable to your devious, anti-business Labor Party that, in your words:'
'works on the despicable and contemptible belief that the majority of the nation is stupid, and then sets about adopting spin that they think will fool them.'
The Labor Party in this country is full of Spin Spin and more Spin.It uses this spin because it believes that, if you repeat something, anything long enough, people will be so naive as to believe it to be true.
Dr Goebbels must be hidden in the bowels of the Labor Party!
