The Windsor knot : Comments

By Everald Compton, published 14/3/2016

There is a rapidly growing legion of angry voters out there and they are spread right across Australia. They are utterly disenchanted with politics and the political establishment and want to 'shaft them mightily' in Donald Trump style.

Well, he has a very real chance of making Barnaby, the first deputy dawg to possibly lose office after having just being promoted to the position?

Why?

Well look to the way education has been funded in New England, with five of its schools in the top bracket, as the most disadvantaged!

And as usual, just not an actual issue with those crippled cretins, not assisted by the self imposed ideological straitjackets, who chose to support, out of obtuse habit, a basically useless National party, only able to actually survive, thanks to channeled liberal (master/obedience trainer) preferences; even though the policies they've supported over the decades, have literally decimated the bush!

And they have been party to ripping up what might have transfused life life back into it, by basically dismantling a vastly superior fibre to the home or office NBN!

Agriculture should trump mining. Always.

As should fair discourse in politics

The last thing we need is a self centred fool like Windsor pushing Barnaby out.

Barnaby will be critical to keeping an LNP government from the more stupid ideas of Turnbull, should we be silly enough to re-elect them with Turnbull their leader. Windsor on the other hand will be nothing but a self aggrandising bit player, regardless of who wins.

He had his chance to do something useful by stopping his backing of Gillard, before she set in place her time bombs of Gonski & the NDIS. Hell all he had to do was cross the floor on those 2 bills, & he could have saved us, or at least dramatically reduced, our huge & growing deficit problem.

The fact that he did neither proves either, he is too dumb to understand what was happening, or simply did not care about the millions of Ozzies effected now & into the future.

That more than a handful could even consider voting for him shows how little thought goes into so many voting decisions.

Tony Windsor, that perverse, grumpy old curmudgeon to beat the straight talking, sunny, genuine Barnaby Joyce? Just how much of this Windsor Knot is a desire to "serve the country" ? Sure it's not really about pay-backs for perceived slights? As for Tony Abbott...it's because he was so bad is it that the Party faithful roared their approval recently... and clapped listlessly, albeit politely, when Malcolm Turnbull turned up at the recent Liberal Party function in Canberra's Parliament House?

Barnaby should go back to Queensland where his head in the sand view of climate change and gay marriage are more acceptable. He might represent the bush very well, but the rest of his views are out of step with the electorate.

The oracle has spoken! He is a 'friend' of Joyce, too. I wonder what Joyce thinks of him. All I can say about this bloke is I'm glad he is not a friend of mine if he is barracking for for the snake Windsor. That man is no Australian Trump. He is a silly old dinosaur who was part of the problem with Australian politics in the first place, with a double dose of nastiness coming from his co-support with the idiot, Oakeshotte, helping out the dud, Gillard to continue her socialist rampage. However, I do hope that the 'oracle' is right about that screeching girl, Pyne, being deposed.
