Today being 1st April is the day that the Federal Government will use as it's last date before the Senate estimates committee for the Budget. If and when it does come I predict one of the following responses from the opposition:
1. It is a budget of missed opportunities.
2. It only serves the big end of town.
3. It doesn't do enough for the poor.
4. They are trying to gut Medicare or Universities or Veteran's Affairs - insert one.
5. It shows they have no vision.
6. It was a lazy bugdet.
7. If a big surplus then :
7a. We must spend money on those who need it. If a small surplus or a deficit then :
7b. Fiscal irresponsibility, need to save for a rainy day
These are my predictions anyway, I shal refer to these at a later date.
The Government will then accuse the Opposition of:
1. Having no policies of their own.
2. Having no vision for the future.
3. Stalling on key issues for cheap political points.
4. Cynically manipulating popular opinion.
