It is wrong to think it, but the word schaedenfreude definately comes to mind. Take a little captain cook at the returns for the ACT in the last Federal Election36.6% for the Coalition to 63.4% for the ALP TPP. I think the obvious fact remains that the Federal Public Service, who comprise the vast majority of the ACT electorates, only have themselves to blame. Harsh maybe, but the facts remain that they had it so good under the coalition, but chose to support Dudd en masse. Do I feel sorry for them? Possibly in the same way that you feel sorry for somebody that goes street racing in their car and ends up becoming a paraplegic. You still reckon they are bloody stupid, but you feel a certain residual humanity for their plight.

The work ethic of this Government will not decrease, it will increase.

Does he mean the work ethic or does he mean the work LOAD.

Everyone knows the workload will increase. The public servants will have to keep stomping out fires… gathering the papers to be shuffled… etcetera.

Its classic Krudd – he picks a weak target (everyone thinks Public Servants are bludgers) and puts the boot in as a distraction from his own failings (the fuelwatch fiasco being the big one right now, but the hypocrisy of the “bad bosses benefit under workchoices, workers suffer” advertising when he IS one of the worst bosses on record seems to be upcoming too.
