A few short weeks ago, one Crikey commentator (I forget who) predicted that the new Government might find a budget “black hole” to excuse it from some of it’s more inconvenient promises. Problem solved eh? but who to blame ?

And you’ll probably talk about me talking about Malcolm Turnbull talking about Wayne Swan in comments! Can full economic meltdown be far away?
