Turnbull will be more in touch with the people and tonight was the first example of that

Apparently you will believe any old crap. He told her he didn't want to be married at a football match.

we strongly supported the Data Retention laws vote, only 2 members opposed it

Poor Tone. Only $300k per year.

Tony Abbott is set to go off into the sunset with an annual pension of $307,542 per year.

Aslo an alleged rapist. which is apparently not as newsworthy as punching a wall according to the abc fairfax love in

That's what it said in the Herald Sun, yes. Is that your source? Unless my memory is far worse than I imagined, my aunt told us he split up with her by txt message. I'm more inclined to believe somebody who actually knows Deborah Beale over what the Herald Sun suggests.

PS- not that I expect (or want) you to believe me. It's utter hearsay for you to believe me. Whereas, from my perspective, it's at least educated hearsay.

Ex-high ranking politicians tend to make more money from sitting on boards of companies, speaking tours, etc. than from their pensions.

Easier in the UK than here, where they have far more clout globally than some former colonial PM. Nevertheless, they can still do fairly well here. I gather Alexander Downer has done just that (in addition to being High Commissioner to the UK).

Turnbull, who's immensely wealthy already from investment banking, very shrewd investments and a rich wife, will probably clean up from his sundries.

Yeah? Well my aunt knows Tony personally and he admitted that he is just Adolf Hitler, shaved off the mo and nobody noticed. Raw onions offset the effects of ageing, other than that his policies that he could get away with have been the same.

Hardy ha ha. I don't expect a soul on an internet football forum to accept thirdhand hearsay. I wouldn't accept it as gospel if somebody else wrote it (even now I don't accept it as gospel with a family member having said it). But it's not that funny. A family member is a friend of one of the parties involved. I'm more inclined to believe her than I am the Herald Sun. That's hardly hilarious.

Shorten's ethics with respect to his family members are somewhat dubious (although in this day and age, that's more common than not). Whether he broke up with his former wife by text message or at the footy, it doesn't make a huge deal of difference. But, as long as he hasn't done anything outrageous in that respect, it doesn't have any bearing on whether or not he's fit to be PM.

Tony Abbott mightn't believe himself to be Hitler, but he's staunchly devoted to the ideology of Santamaria. That's only a couple of degrees better.

Andrew bolt :lol: god bless him.

Now what do all the useless bloody socialists in our society blame their shit lives on? Dammit Tone.

socialism and communism don't work, been adequately proven for a long time, but hey knock yourselves out ........

Shorten?

So Hockey will be gone, most likely Morrison in, but fuck me dead they're talking about putting Pyne into the Defense role.

Geezuz fawk.

He's not a leader. It's usually the governments fault for everything. I guess it won't take long for Labour to take the piss out of Malcolm.

It's all part of the deal so he can announce the subs will be built in SA and save him at the next election. I had such high hopes too :(

thought you would be happy to see that???

Brutal but honest :lol:

How come Tone hasn't fronted the media yet?

In political death just as in his political life, he is a coward.

Also no more speech writers.

Sad thing here is that even tough Abbott is a schmuck he has performed better than Gillard and Krudd......

really tells the state of affairs in Australian politics

The latter being the case haha.

Thank fuck Peta Credlin is gone too, hopefully she never resurfaces.

-PB

No he hasn't :lol:

You keep rehashing that horseshit like Tone rehashed his tired old dot points and look where that got him :lol:

-PB

as you do, failing to see how bad Gillard and Krudd were.............

anyway another day another PM.....

I know it's too much to ask but please explain how he was better than those 2.

Tony must think that Malcolm has a speech impediment. He doesn't repeat anything......

Really !!!!???? seriously!!!!?????
you really are fucking stupid

Struggling to think of anything semi-Tone did that wasn't widely hated.
