Me quoted in Fairfax papers on tax haven use
Me quoted by Georgia Wilkins in The Age (and other Fairfax publications) today. John Passant, from the school of political science and international relations, at the Australian National University, said the trend noted by Computershare was further evidence multinationals did not take global regulators seriously. ”US companies are doing this on the hard-nosed basis that any [regulatory] changes that will be made won’t have an impact on their ability to avoid tax,” he said. ”They think it is going to take a long time for the G20 to take action, or that they are just all talk.” (1)

At a time of hope Abbott gives us fear

Christmas and the New Year is a time of hope. Yet all this Abbott government and its media spruikers offers is fear – fear of terorism; fear of asylum seekers and fear of the unemployed are its current playthings. The best way to counter the ruling class climate of fear is to resist their attacks, not fall for their racist, xenophobic and anti-working class rantings and actions.

Labor Senator Sue Lines bagged for telling the truth about Abbott’s fear-mongering

Labor senator Sue Lines stated the obvious. Tony Abbott is using national security (Iraq, Australian jihadists, beefed up numbers of border guards, ‘Team Australia’) to detract attention away from the Government’s unfair pro-rich Budget.

The concentration camp of fear

We cannot escape, until we arm ourselves and stand against their might; in the one struggle, the one fight, against these enemies of light. The end of the numbered human and pink triangle, of the starving slave, is in sight. On the horizon, glimpsed and distant, but there in our here, we can end their dark night.
