CN is facing a shocking half yearly report , the state is now in worse shape than when labor left office. With 6+% unemployment looming his 4% unemployment is a dream.
His cost cutting have been nothing more than a exercise to pay for his election promises.
Citizens are paying more tax now than at anytime under labor. With a second wave of sackings yet to happen, and the states finances at an alltime low. The stage is set for asset sales.
QLD is in decline as revenue streams are drying up, and CN has done it all himself.

Dear Geoffrey,

No. You've got it wrong. I didn't know
who Sam was. As I stated previously - I
found the Sydney Morning Herald article on
the web - and thought it made sense.
It's that simple. If you choose not to believe
me - that's something over which I have no control.

You can make whatever assumptions you wish but
according to polls Mr Abbott is the least popular
Opposition leader in the history of this country.
And there must be a reason for it. Perhaps people
don't want a leader who's a throwback to the 1950s,
who puts his personal ambition ahead of everything else,
and who deals from base level tactics in politics.

Of the Liberal Party politicians, Mr Turnbull comes
across as a much fairer and better option.
As stated earlier - "Mr Turnbull has emerged as a
true statesman with real-world economic credentials,
setting him apart from the mass of political thugs
on both the Right and the Left who treat leadership
as just a numbers game."

We can argue this issue as much as we want, however,
despite what opinions each of us holds - its ultimately
the voters who will decide which party to vote for at
the next election. And it will be up to the party to
decide who they want as leader. If Mr Abbott continues
to slide in the polls - it will be interesting to see
if the party will keep him or replace him.

I wish you and yours a very Happy New Year, and may 2013
surpass all of our expectations.

Happy New Year and best wishes to all.
Here's hoping this year sees the demise of Mr.Abbott's political career

Australia deserves a modern leader.
Wh not Turnbull?

rechtub, not joking, your posts OFTEN look like you are.
In C N Queensland has the very type of leader that, in the long term damages his party.
He without reserve fits the shoes of old Joe very well.
Australia likes talking tough.
But too, a truth but for a rigged dury Joe would have spent time in prison.
I very firmly and honestly, think true Liberals are not looking for such men to lead.
The strongest Labor supporter could not, with any honesty, say Howard and Menzies fitted that mold, both however are unmatched for understanding what voters wanted.
A thought, one I hold to be truth.
Those folk who so readily buy the PURE CONSTRUCTED LIE that this country or any part of it is weighted down with debts of Labor.
Who forget the GFC and the pre Howard reforms that set us on this path.
Or the hight taxes of Howard.
Are ill equiped to comment on politics.
Now mate you will be enraged by that.
A truth can not be avoided, one of us is wrong, one under stands very little but falls with ease for every half truth thrown at them.
Politicians, each and every one from all sides love such people.

thinker 2,
that's an oxymoron.

He heatedly insults me, mostly because of his failure, to under stand.
Belly,
what a spot-on self assessment !

The denouncers of Abbott are hopelessly blinded by an academic led smear campaign of the vilest kind. I can not recall any conservatives ever having stooped so low !
Not in this country anyway.
To support the destruction of this country as is being done under Labor is nothing short of treason.

INDY UNFORTUNATELY you took satire as truth.
You as is the norm, went of early.
A look using mathematics at the true meaning of 63% of this country not liking Abbott,a child could understand, is that AT LEAST 20%
OF Liberals, do not like Abbott.
You may do what you wish with the thread.
I am no longer contributing to it.
