Belly,

All that came out on Slipper prior to 2011 were minor issues and rumors. They were enough for him to lose the position of parliamentary secretary, and in 2011 when more serious stuff came up for him to lose pre selection.

It was Juliar who even knowing this welcomed him to a top labor position with open arms. And everything that is before the court is from then. Seeing how Juliar protected a crook like Thomson, Slippery must have thought it was open season.

This link rebuts Shadow Minister.
It highlights a truth that should fill us all with fear.
Much of Slippers wrongs, are under heaps and years of cover ups put there by generations of Liberals.
A dreadful truth is emerging.
This country, fed by lies hate, constructed events, will vote not for policy's.
Not for our future, but against our two dysfunctional unloved leaders.
I firmly will be voting against Abbott's team who refuse to take control of this mans past, one they hid, but want his blood for ?
Any fleeing to the greens is unwise I will try every thing to sideline them but if given a choice would put Liberal lies before them in preferences.
SM?

Of cause we shouldn't have an election every time them polls are bad, but let's all be honest here, they are not just bad they are shocking and have been for months now.

Now, you combine this with the lies, and Labors track record of waste and mismanagement, combined with the CT cove up, and yes, we need to make an exception now and call an election.

A sitting government in the 20's to low 30's, for months on end, is grounds for an election.

Now it's not just the numbers, but the other numbers that also count, they being the smallest of majorities any government can have, essentially relying on the caretaker speaker for support.

If ever there were a period in our history where we have an unworkable government, it is right here and now.

This is why we need an election.

No if you Gillard supporters think she is so good, then why worry, or are you actually admitting to the fact that they are doomed.

Belly's video shows Abbott as a liar of the worst kind when it suites him.
The man is dangerous desperado, with little to no regard for the nation.
Those calling for an election, all based on unproven allegations, need to have a good look around, this sets the stage for untold challenges unlike never before.
Since 2003 the coalition have had a secret, and covered it up to their advantage, and now they still want the advantage even knowing they covered it up for 9 years. No doubt there is still plenty to come.
There is rumbling in the background with Turnbull Hockey and one other, at odds with Abbott.
Some see poll ratings as the everything of politics, when Labor are doing major reform, all Abbott can do is play the negative game.

So to some, those who are opposed to Tony Abbott amount to mindless idiots with no real reason for their beliefs, eh?

Well, here's a reason for you. This man has one of the most volatile mouths I have ever heard drivel come out of. He has the capacity to verbally insult many other nations and have them turn against us. He couldn't even resist making a joke out of a disaster (the Costa Condordia).

If this is your idea of a person suitable to lead this nation, then I think I should migrate elsewhere, because I definitely DO NOT AGREE.

Please, please, please, DON’T call an election!

Rehctub, if an election were to be held in the near future, we’d get an Abbott government, with a clear majority for three years, at least.

Now, do you really think the country would be better off with this??

Trouble is; the polls indicate who the preferred PM/government is out of two highly on-the-nose options. That doesn’t mean people support the Libs. Not by a long way.

What we need is a way of getting a realistic analysis of just what each party offers and the differences between them….and the Greens too…out to the people so that they have a reasonable basis on which to make their choice.

Currently it is all about personalities, who is the least dishonest leader, and for some people a very rough idea about one or policy positions.

That’s a HOPELESS basis on which to elect a government!
