We just need politicians who are leaders and who can see past their own self interests.
Even one or two would be a start.

Good analogy, this government could actually be a less than one term administration, should Abbott stand true to his word and go for the double dissolution option, over the carbon tax... One lives in hope.

Six years, & Labor did nothing about the high dollar, but now the clowns want to tell Abbott what he should do.

Six years & they did nothing to fix the excessive costs they had inflicted on industry.

Six years of huge mining income, but they continued to grow the debt.

Just what is it that these socialist fools don't understand about cutting spending to your income.

Must be hard for them. The had to watch socialist USSR fail & die. Now it must be dreadfully painful to see it coming back to life as a capitalist economy. Pity it's almost a dictatorship, but at least the Ruskies now have one thing right.

Now our lefties want the West to fail, so they aren't forced to see the truth.

TRISTAN, if as you say you're a 'qualified teacher' it is little wonder why our education system is slipping further and further behind many of a near Asian neighbours !

God help our children's future, when people of the 'socialist left' persuasion of the ALP, like you, inculcate some of the communist doctrine into our kids, that I and many other veterans fought against, over fifty years ago. You and your kind are a scourge and a menace upon our society.

Please return to North Korea as expeditiously as possible, I and many others, will gladly pay your one way fare!

No don't leave, Trisy.

Your comedy pieces lighten my life. Whenever I see one of your pieces I know I'm in fir a grand old belly laugh.

Kee p it up, Laddie. It is ensuring the Labor Party is a continuing irrelevance.

Wu have no fear we Australians see right through the leftie bs.

yea Tristan please supply us with another one of the Emiy's listers. They were such outstanding socialist that they turned a propserous nation into another socialist European diaster.
