Before voting Labour
Kevin Rudd the Labour Australian Prime Minister has released his plans to introduce a 40 % tax on all mining companies. He never revealed his plans prior to the Australian national election.
If he had Labour would not have won the election.
It is effectively nationalisation of the mining industry.
Rudd and his ilk - Brown /NL lead parties that have an agenda that is kept secret from the public.
They cannot be trusted !

Wrong mate. Th UK and Australian governments work very closely together, especially the respective taxation departments.I know as I have been affected by their joint action.The philosophy of socialist politics world wide has a core agenda. I'm sure you would agree with that?

Krudd is implementing what has been mooted here in the UK with respect to the banking sector. I would expect the likes of BHP and Rio to expand their operations elsewhere like South America to reduce their tax footprint.

In fairness he only dreamt up the idea last week !!
Living in Oz at present I can see all too well the similarities between Rudds Labour govt and Blairs as well as the two men themselves.
2 years ago the Nation was $11 Billion Aud in the black today they are anywhere between $30 - 50 Biliion Aud in the red according to whatever outlets you read, and it could take anything up to 30 years to claw that back.
Just read up on the home insulation **** up the school buildings scheme which have both been a free for all. He gave everyone between $300 and $800 handouts on two ocassions to stave off the recession in the belief people would byAustralian made goods to boost the economy and create more jobs, the majority of people spunked it on Japanese electronics the pub and paying off credit cards, no new jobs created.
In the past two weeks they have announced electricity bills will increase by 64% over the next 3 years and they put **** up by 25% overnight, Australia welcome to the stealth tax !
I doubt he will serve another term.
Not too clever at holding on to his staff either
