Was Tony Abbot Australia’s worst prime minister? : Comments

By Peter Bowden, published 5/11/2024

This article argues yes. The main reasons are his disastrous and uncaring budget of 2014.

I agree that Abbott, while an extremely effective leader of the opposition, was a very poor prime minister. But why is there no mention of Whitlam as one of Australia's worst ever PMs? I suspect the author chose his historians very carefully before asking them to nominate their choices of Australia's worst PMs!

There is no mention of Whitlam or the current dropkick, Albanese, because Mr. Bowden is a dead-set Leftist, with nothing better to do than vent his opinion, and taking three pages to do it.

No.

That title must go to Scum-Mo from marketing. The liar from the shire.

Who was the leader that won an election by telling lies. And was sacked by his voters in short time. His lies only lasted till the election. This is the man that said he would do anything to win an election, and went to England and said it felt like a homecoming. All sorts of grubs infiltrate Australia.

A better question would be which administration was the worst under which Prime Minister.
the Whitlam, Rudd & Albanese led would have to be the ones that caused most damage to this Nation mainly due their affiliation with Unions.
Coalition administrations fail because bureaucrats don't get changed with Govt as 95% of them are Labor orientated.
