FED: Rudd's report card gets "F" by Nats leader

Prime Minister KEVIN RUDD's report card has been given an "F" by the Nationals .. for
failing to deliver on several election commitments since he came to office.

Federal party leader WARREN TRUSS has told delegates at their annual council meeting
in Canberra today Mr RUDD has failed to reduce petrol and grocery prices .. cut bank fees
.. take over the health system .. and put a computer on the desk of every school child.

However he says the prime minister and Labor do deserve an A for spending other people's
money and clocking up 315 billion dollars in debt.

As expected .. Mr TRUSS has also attacked the government over its emissions trading
scheme legislation which the council unanimously rejected earlier today.
