Australia's incoming PM, Tony Abbot, will be scrapping the carbon tax and limit foreign aid. That's a relief after all these years.

[Sir John]

He and his team have a HUGE job to do.

You can bet a zillion that they will go over the books, and it will FAR worse than the socialists have ever admitted. He has about 4 goals that he MUST make rapid progress on in the next few months.

The carbon tax, the mining tax, budget waste, and above all he MUST, repeat MUST, stop the boats. Step #1 is to bring back the TPVs, with conditions that are so strict that they will not bother.

One of the rare glitches in our Preferential Voting System, it sometimes throws up a bunch of "nutters", especially in the Senate where a candidate can get 1% of the vote and still get a seat.
