Did you know he is a lawyer by trade - a banking and finance lawyer no less?
Never mind Dave... Some people are good with figures, then there's poor ol' Joe...me thinks he was a clown in a previous life...
Leopards don't change thir spots & birds of a feather flock together.Great judgement shown by Deputy PM Albo. He has been banished from the Labor Party and is facing more than 170 fraud and theft charges including allegations he used union funds to pay for prostitutes. But that didn't stop Deputy Prime Minister Anthony Albanese last night enjoying a few beers with controversial Independent MP Craig Thomson in the middle of the election campaign.
Not my recollection of it.Tony Abbott had been trying to get rid of Slipper for ages, Terry.
Fair cop. You insinuate Albo has "spots" for having a beer with Thompson, who at this stage is not guilty of anything. Yet when I post some facts, not dirt, on the fact Abbott supported Slippery Pete, it somehow means in your eyes that Tony doesn't have "spots".For your information, the LNP in Queensland drove Slipper out of the party.

You find lots of things strange. Rather than trying to cloud the issue, what do you think about your deputy PM engaging socially with Thompson during an election campaign, bearing in mind that Thompson has been charged with criminal offences?Do you think that is acceptable?

Albo can have a beer with whoever he like. If Thompson was a convicted criminal, I would find it unacceptable.What I do find unacceptable is the man who wants to be our next PM defending a person who was proven to have defrauded the Commonwealth.
Fascinating, but it just shows that they're all dishonest and we're forced to choose whomever may be the lesser evil or danger to our country.

.And as far as solar is concerned, it's a wait and see game but I can't say that I'm overly confident they will do the right thing by those who have already installed solar systems in their houses. I hope they do but I'm not holding my breath.
IMO he has stuffed up.How the hell can he do that when the people who bought the early solar systems for such high prices have a contract?If he doesn't back down on that one, my feeling is he will get, and deserves, a class action from disgruntles solar participants.As in my above post, I told you not to hold your breath.
Dave is correct, a contract is binding and that's that, which is how it should be.
