A politician's promise......


Recommended Posts

OK elections are close, so I thought this might be a good thread maybe for the lighter side of politics.

 

We can all remember an election promise that we knew they couldn't keep or a quote that just made you laugh. This can be world wide, and please lets not concentrate on good old gordo, his had plenty of PIO space.

 

This is from Bob Hawke (an Australian prime minister)

 

no Australian child will be living in poverty

 

Opening Labor's election campaign on June 23, 1987, Mr Hawke said: "We set ourselves this first goal: by 1990 no Australian child will be living in poverty."

 

Something that has not happened and if anything has raised since 1987
