 Police State: This is what the Abbott government plans for Oz posted by Natalie Evans via jake, 2015-09-01 22:47:45
Abbott is now a known quantity even among the most uninformed Aussies, austerity for the masses and vulnerable and a free ride for the wealthy tax-avoiding elites, which also entails tighter regulatory/police measures due to the extremely unfair nature of his elite serving policies. (full story)
