'Strewth this is a bit of a shock,no wonder he hasn't been on the reporting frontline for a while. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-08-21/sean-dorney-makes-a-final-return-to-papua-new-guinea/10123072

Stupid,dumass Libs need bashing up the bum,they've just lost their jewel in the crown and probably the complete womens vote. Even Sh^thead Shorten could win the next election without opening his mouth......in fact that's probably what he's worked out on his lonesome.. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-08-26/julie-bishop-quits-cabinet/10166300
Don't get me started.....I feel embarrassed to be an Australian at the moment......We've totally lost the plot.....I might vote for Pauline next time....She would sort these pricks out.....
Well the cartoon said it best last week "and the next Prime Minister of Australia is.... Bill Shorten" and any Lib who wants to whine about it should have a chat with Abbott and his merry men.
Please don't do that - it's her kind of populist numbers policy that has got us to this point... the only thing PH sorts out is her own bank account.
...sad. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-08-27/neil-simon-broadways-master-of-comedy-dies-at-91/10167660
Populist? WTF is populist? She gets votes because the Libs have lost a great deal of their core base by trying to appease leftist minority groups. The libs need to move further to the right and give the voters a clear choice. Katter, Bernardi and Hanson voters will then largely come back. And then the Senate needs to be disbanded - I personally hated Paul Keating, but "unrepresentative swill" pretty much is right on.
Yep, the senate has been a stupid piece of the parliament forever, just getting in the way of the govt of the day
She will say anything on the day that she thinks will get her attention - do you remember how she started? First it was aboriginals , then the Chinese, most recently Muslims or just immigrants in general. Nothing but dog whistling for attention. She was thrown out after 1 term in Reps because she was never in her electorate. Fish and chip shop owner to multi millionaire all by the power of the media and public funding of election 'campaigns'. She doesn't give a rats if her people even win the election, as long as the vote scrapes over the 5% rules so she collects the cash. Inside dealings in the printing and publishing costs that the CANDIDATES pay. Crooked as a dog's hind leg...
You're right about Libs have moved too far left; Labour has moved right quite a bit as well somthere's barely a whisker between the 2 (policies? what policies?) hence the popularity contest between so called 'leaders'...
Bob has lost the plot recently... spouting about 640,000 immigrants last night when the actual number is 190,000 plus about 3,000'emergency refugees'. BTW did you know Aus took in 515 refugees from Bhutan last year? I didn't even know there WERE refugees from Bhutan... I was very impressed with the Townsville woman on Q&A last night (Cathy ?); she really seemed to have a handle on what her electorate was about. What does Shane have to say about Anning?
I’ve only just caught up on all these posts. Patrick is spot on - the Libs lost the plot when they decided to try to appeal to people who will never, ever vote for them anyway. Turnbull is and always was a lefty. And genuine conservatives couldn’t stand him, hence the scattering of the right wing vote. Hell, even I supported Bernardi’s party briefly (even though I can’t stand religion) mainly because I was so pissed off with where Turnbull was taking the Libs. Basically, they’re ****ed now no matter what - Shorten will be the next PM and it will be a disaster for this country - but when the Libs try to work out why, they need look no further than overthrowing a genuine conservative with a card carrying left wing wanker.
If Shorten gets in we are screwed......FFS he even looks like a village idiot......we need someone with balls to run this country.....Maybe Pauline will step up......
Am I missing something in Mark Knight's cartoon of Serena loosing the plot,apparently it's racist......all I saw,live,was a primadonna who lost both the match and her integrity. https://wwos.nine.com.au/tennis/tennis-serena-williams-cartoon-at-us-open-causes-controversy/3520616d-4d74-490e-9ae4-c3a9b61ccf63
