Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Since i'm a young middle class single guy with no children this budget pretty much doesn't effect me. Some changes to HECS repayments for 2015-2016 but hopefully that'll all be paid off before the end of the decade and the effects will be minor.

This I like

MPs super freeze

The Government has made a submission to the independent Remuneration Tribunal proposing to freeze the salaries
and allowances of parliamentarians (MPs), departmental secretaries and all other public office holders at current
levels for 12 months, over the period 1 July 2014 to 30 June 2015.

The freeze will also apply to the pensions of
former parliamentarians received under the closed Parliamentary Contributory Superannuation Scheme.(Source:
Budget Paper No 2 [p 70].)

Now to introduce MP's salary caps

I got told off by a greens MP on Twitter. This makes me feel selfrighteous and confident that I'm doing the right thing. If you're pissing off the greens, you're on the right path. ;-)

Yeah for once I seem to be one of those who will be least screwed by the latest budget.

Can't say I'm that upset about most of it TBH. Welfare cuts have been needed for a long time.

Pension age of 70 is a bit rough but by the time I get to retire I expect there will be no pension at all, so meh.

What's magic mike going to be upset about? Rich b*stard have to pay the defecit levy?

    • Finally have an update on this  Rack came in this week so I did a test fit. You do need the S chassis bushings since the rack is 5mm thinner than the R33 rack. The main issue I foresaw and ran into was one of the hardlines not lining up properly with there it's meant to on the rack. After some gentle coercing and bending very slightly, I managed to get it to fit without any kinks and keeping the hardline pretty much in all of the factory mounting positions. I did have to unbolt all of the soft mounts to move the line around so I could snake it out and bend it safely but it looks good to me for now. I'll update when the rack is fully bolted in and functioning.  
    • I hear this thread needs an update following its adventures last Wednesday!
    • What are you thinking makes a sequential shit to drive on the street? About the ONLY thing I can think of, is if you're wanting to be able to roll up to lights in third or second and pop it straight into neutral, or you want to come down two or three gears, say out of 5th and back to second, but they shift quick enough it doesn't really matter
    • I'm not a drag racing guy, but that was a good watch. Didn't Ibrahim's car have some cooch! But the big question is....WTF is with so many of them running without seatbelts!
