No, I won’t be watching it. The Treasurer’s Budget speech, that is.
Firstly, because I’m sick as a dog, and find it hard to stomach listening to Wayne speak even when at my best.
Secondly, because I already know what’s in it.
So without further ado, here is my very brief non-viewers guide to tonight’s Budget speech:
casuistry
cas·u·ist·ry [kazh-oo-uh-stree]
noun, plural cas·u·ist·ries.
1. specious, deceptive, or oversubtle reasoning, especially in questions of morality; fallacious or dishonest application of general principles; sophistry.
That’s all there is to it.
Wayne’s budget speech … in a word.
