I really hope the Liberals win and we don't get Labour's Internet filter censoring content and spying on us.  I don't want more emtpy promises of GP superclinics and a policy on climate change to procrastinate with a citizen's assembly and an extra carbon tax.


If you had kept up you'd know that there isn't enough support for the internet filter. You'd also know that there wouldn't be 'spying' if it did get through.

WTF? It's a Labour policy - if re-elected and they win enough seats then yes they will implement it. 


Nope, there wouldn't be:

There is more to parliament than Labor and Liberal. Greens will have the power in the senate (that's why I voted for them in the senate) and the filter will not get through the senate.
