Just in case you thought Krudd was in touch with low income earners...

Krudd eyes $5M holiday house

He and his wife want to buy the holiday house that they rent for $10K a week.

Don't kid yourself that there is a difference between the Right and Left these days!

sorry i don't usually post in these political threads but isn't his wife loaded?

I think if he & his wife has the cash then why not?

It's a sad sad day in the Labor Party when the unions accuse the leader of having little in common with battlers.
But this will chalked up to being yet another Liberal smear campaign by the party faithful here I suppose.

I would never assume that a politician was in touch with low income earners

Especially the leader of the opposition.......

They might think they are, but they have no clue.

ETA: Just want to clarify what I mean.... I just mean any politician, from which ever party on that level earns too much money.

An election is just a matter of choosing the party you hate the least isn't it?

They're all still pollies, they all get the lurks and perks that we pay for.

I would never choose an allegiance to a party and stick up for them the way some of you do. I don't understand that at all. Its almost like worship or something.

ick.

yeah i didn't think any politictian was on a low income so how could they understand anyway, whether the have $10mill in there account or $500,000?

**chefalicious** · 08-10-2007 11:28

personally if they have the money to buy a house like that then good on them.

**Xistenze** · 08-10-2007 11:29

ofcourse they are not, but if that is the reason people are swayed from voting for the labor party that would be a disappointment, im a labor supporter but i wouldn't not vote liberal because the leader bought an expensive house

I wonder where they are meant to holiday or buy a house to be considered "in touch" with the working people

All politicians should holiday in a caravan park on the central coast of NSW and own houses that were originally owned by department of housing

Really I think we have always known that politicians in general are much wealthier than the average Joe Blow no matter what side of politics they come from.

Really Dean Mighell should be able to rise above these type of tactics. I mean where does he holiday??
