Australian Federal Election 2013: National Rural Health Alliance gives Coalition fail mark on health policies

About Us - National Rural Health Alliance

Moggy Musings (Archived material from Boy the Wonder Cat)


A Hogan's no hero musing:
Word round the traps is that when North Coast Nationals candidate in Page for September's federal election, Kevin Hogan, held a meet the locals at Nymboida in June 2013 only one person turned up. Hope I get to see the September 7 poll returns for booths in that area. :-)

An no prize for guessing musing:
Which Northern Rivers local government mandarin has been referred to by a frequenter of Gov. Macquarie Towers as having a personality disorder?

An anticipated political deathbed musing:
Which unsuccessful 2012 Clarence Valley Council election candidate is rumoured to be positioning herself for a by-election tilt, on the basis of a belief that one of the successful candidates may come a cropper and be forced to resign?

A not allowed any guns musing:

A horsey musing:
As a moggy who has always successfully managed to get a fair share of any pizza (minus onion) which enters my domain, I have to ask - has anyone else noticed how horse meat sweet Eagle Boys generic ground beef tastes?

A she almost died laffing musing:
I thought my hoomin was in serious danger of a laughter overdose tonight when she went to The Queensland Times and read this: It is hard not to feel just a little sorry for Tony Abbott, wherever your political allegiances lie. In a few short weeks the Opposition Leader's world has been turned on its head.
Even I would like to know how much catnip juice that journo had imbibed before he hit the keyboard! Sorry for Tony? Not this moggy.

A rumour musing:
Seems rumours persist that a certain Northern Rivers local government general manager still spits the dummy whenever he doesn't like local media coverage. If every time he talked of suing for defamation actually resulted in a court action he wouldn't have any time left for his day job.People are beginning to laugh quietly at the spectacle.

Abbott and the Coalition refuse to release Parliamentary Budget Office advice on the limited number of policy commitments it submitted for costing


Australian Opposition Leader Tony Abbott and the Coalition released unsubstantiated policy commitment costing figures on the afternoon of 5 September 2013 which was less than two days before the federal election polling booths open.

Abbott refuses to release Parliamentary Budget Office advice on the limited number of policy commitments actually submitted for independent assessment.

The following document produced by Abbott, Hockey, Robb et al would be a rollicking eight-page farce or fractured fairy tale if the implications were not so serious for the country.

Seems Rev Fred is moving


According to documents lodged with the AEC the registered office of the the Fred Nile Group (aka the CDP) is 1 Hamer Street Kogarah Bay and at that address one should expect to find Frederick John Nile.


A little bit of investigation revealed the property at 1 Hamer Street Kogarah Bay is set for auction at 4.00pm on Saturday 14th September. It's open for inspection on three occasions prior to auction time. Interestingly, one inspection time is this Saturday, election day, from 12 noon - 1.00pm.


Readers might recall the scorn heaped on Julia Gillard for the appearance of her kitchen. Well, take a gander at Fred's kitchen - there's not a tea towel in sight!




Agents describe the place as a "Light Filled Family Haven Of Space And Privacy" - seems an "e"was left out of the word beginning with "H"and ending with "n".








Could this be the room where the CDP power brokers assemble?
Fred's floor covering matches the colour of the NSW Upper House. Hmmmmm, perhaps his new bride isn't impressed with his choice of colours and seeks a new address.
