The ScoMo Government

Jump to new

Yes it's quite funny that Abbott was given heaps in the press, for undermining Turnbull, it seems Turnbull is ten times worse.
At least Abbott stayed in politics, whereas Turnbull spat the dummy, causes a by election and starts snipping while on holidays in the U.S.
Talk about the pot calling the kettle, grimy ar$e.
As you say Logique, it just shows how little Turnbull cared about the Libs, good riddance I say.

As a Melburnian and someone who voted Liberal the last two elections but no more, I fully understand it.
Victoria has been ignored, we haven't been getting our share of infrastructure money despite growing the fastest of any area of Australia,

Welcome to what is like to be West Australian.
We haven't been getting our share for years, and until recently, it fell on deaf ears.
 
Knobby, Im sure you meant the Liberals got rid of Labors best asset?
 
"Abbott is Labor's best asset". Labor doesn't believe that, although they'd never admit it. He had Gillard's measure, and Rudd's, and well they knew it.
 
LOL > I think Labor are more than happy that it was Abbott winning that election and not Malcolm Bishop Morisson. It takes a special kind of incompetence to convert a landslide victory into a self induced defeat in half a term and only a few have managed it

That was then, this is now. He is now their best asset. He is a walking embarrassment. The barnacle they can't remove. Hopefully for Libs sake he will lose his seat. I think it is likely despite the large swing, remember Howard?
 
John Key and Malcolm Turnbull should never be said in the same sentence, in the same paragraph even.

There is absolutely no comparison between the two. John Key was a legend. Turnbull a bloody muppet at best, and I still Believe a Manchurian candidate.
 
Maybe Turnbull is not of the quality of Keys and has muppet qualities but let's face it, if Keys had of been in the same position, he would have been knifed also for being too moderate. What he achieved in NZ was amazing but he didn't have to deal with the Abbott Muppet within his own party.
 
Keys was a good conservative, Turnbull a social democrat.

No comparison
 
A lot of people writing ScoMo or SloMo off already?
I think he maybe "deadman walking" but I'm willing to give him a chance.

I think the Libs are dead in the water, the papers are full of it, they say it enough times people take it for granted.
Whether that means Morrison goes with the ship, is another thing, I think he is still their best option.
Shorten is still the only hope the Libs have and even his unpopularity, won't help much. IMO

Off and racing. SloMo no more. A Royal Commission into Aged Care.

Good distraction.
I remember when the Libs thought Royal Commissions were considered expensive and a last resort.
The good thing is that it means they don't have to do anything about the issue till after the election.

Yes Knobby, if Labor call it yippe yi yay, if Libs call it then it is just a good distraction.

You should send in a letter to the editor of the SMH, they would love that. Priceless.

Yesterday you were saying they were doing fluck all, today they announce a Royal Commission, and you say they are taking the pizz. lol

The Libs have had 5+ years to do something about the aged care sector. Calling a RC in their death throws is an admission of failure on their part.

It's good that they called it, but it's just a guilty man pleading guilty.

Let's not go there, or I will have to trawl back to what labor started bagging as soon as they lost office, yet had two terms to change the exact issues. We had a lot of tooing and throughing about it when Labor lost office.
I'm all for putting Labor in, a lot of nasty stuff needs to happen and Labor can do it.
But to put the boots into Scotty when he is curled up on the ground, trying to get up, is a bit uncalled for. lol
