Samuel’s Blog Weekly Poll: Westpac and St. George Bank Merging
December 2nd, 2008 at 11:19am
It’s all done and dusted, and I can even use Westpac ATMs without being charged an “other bank ATM” fee which saves me from navigating the maze of construction works in Cooleman Court, but I’m still not entirely sure what to make of the merger between Westpac Bank and St. George Bank. So, I’ll ask you:
- Good for customers
- Bad for customers
- Not going to make a difference

The results from last week’s poll were fairly split:
- The best government the country has ever had
- Great
- Good, but they’ve made a few mistakes along the way
- OK
- Bad, but no worse than anyone else
- Awful
- They’re destroying the country
Total Votes: 26

That said, if we treat “OK” as a neutral answer, then we have 16 people satisfied with the Rudd Government’s performance, and eight people unsatisfied. A 67%-33% split is pretty good in my books.
Davky also noted in the comments on last week’s poll that, for a first term government, they’re doing well on the “unity” front. I’d agree with that, although I probably do err on the side of “OK-Bad, but no worse than anyone else”, and I think I voted for the latter.
