Public considering change of govt: Howard<\/a><\/em><\/h3>\n

Prime Minister John Howard has admitted that the public is contemplating a change of government, in the wake of the latest poll figures.<\/em><\/p>\n

Today’s Fairfax AC Nielsen poll puts Labor ahead of the Coalition by 58 per cent to 42 per cent on a two-party preferred basis.<\/em><\/p>\n

But the Government’s primary vote has edged up for the second consecutive month, rising two points to 39 per cent compared to Labor’s 48 per cent.<\/em><\/p>\n

And the poll showed that most voters back the Coalition as the best economic manager, but the Opposition is seen as the best option for industrial relations (IR).<\/em><\/p>\n

Mr Howard says the Government is facing a tough battle to win the next Federal Election.<\/em><\/p>\n

“It’s quite clear that the public, after 11 years of this Government, is contemplating a change, I understand that,” he said.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Nice try, Johnny.<\/p>\n

Even YOU know you screwed yourself<\/strong><\/em> by screwing Australian workers with WorkChoices <\/strike>.<\/p>\n

-weez<\/p>\n

MORE:<\/strong> No Shit, Sherlock- part 72; Joe Hockey says “We got it wrong on WorkChoices <\/strike> industrial relations fairness<\/strong><\/a>”<\/p>\n

EVEN MORE:<\/strong> HoWARd reckons the Liberals are “facing annihilation.”<\/a> I could have told you that when Labor was returned to NSW government despite being some of the most corrupt and inept managers the state has ever known- and when Pru Goward very nearly wasn’t elected to the seat of Goulburn. Iemma publicly credited WorkChoices <\/strike><\/a> for Labor’s landslide victory- Goward also admitted that WorkChoices <\/strike> had very nearly cost her the election<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
