Now The Federal Election Is Running And So Are The Politcians For Election on 2nd July 2016

Image result for cartoon horses images at the gatesNow that Malcolm Turnbull has got the election rolling (and a long one at that), the horses are now at the opening gates with Bill Shorten. All candidates are shining their shoes, doing up their ties, wearing their newest jackets.

Thence comes the shaking of hands, the talking, the personal negative comments to opposition candidates on policy or views. The pledges of promises that are yet be fulfilled. The comparison of  what they have done and what they want to do, to secure more votes for their electorate.

As each horse bolts from the gates, each wants to pull more strength against others and use up as much ammunition to throw dirt to other faces. Each prepared speech is a beautifully polished self-portriat wording that should glorify the work you have done and are about to do. People will say they vote for you and they won't and others will vote for you as they are satisfied with what you are doing.

Each opposition leader wants to stay close to the inner barrier and not slow down. They want to stay behind the leader and win from behind.

So how is this election looking, to me there is a few issues that will make the electorate decide which way they will vote. The issues that were at the last election may in the background. Here's what I think is  important when choosing candidates/governments:
  • A stable Government will a long serving Prime Ministers and Ministers of Cabinet
  • A strong surplus budget that can provide surpluses to the electorate by way of tax deductions for employees and also Employers, raise threshold for lower income earners, lower the income tax rate in general: Lower rate of Tax 20% raised to $25% for middle income earners and maximum 40% for high income earners. 
  • Retain Medicare yet provide affordable medical insurance  across  
  • Reduce  Duplicate Departments for State and Federal - for example Health - make Federal Government run Health or just have the State and Territories run health or make Austral Department Departments advisors for all State Health officials decisions
  • Get rid of Road Tolls - although it is a state issue
  •  Get involved in  State and Local Council  decisions that are community improvements and ensure Federal funding is provided.
  • The immigration boat issue - great there is no or little boats coming in - we do need to create  friendly village atmosphere immigration centres within Australia, providing the necessary education and support, so that if accepted as residents, are qualified to apply for jobs and obtain jobs, own houses and  grow with their families in our communities. Processing of applications should take  no longer then 6-8 months.
  • The same sex marriage laws need to be not placed  into government and not even passed by any vote. This is the government playing as God with lives.
  •   A federal ICAC so that  all Parliamentarians can come clean!


In close elections the voters will carry the member over the line!

In the Federal Seat of Chifley, so far we have 5 candidates running, current member Ed Husic, Australian Labor Party, Mohit Kumar candidate for the  Liberal Party, Eliza James candidate for the Greens, Ammar Khan candidate for the 21st Century Party and Joshua Green - Christian Democrat Party.

We will be asking each candidate in relation to 'whyilovemountdruitt' as part of Chifley Federal Electorate and get back to the community once they are received.
