A shame the man had the guts to say the right thing. But in the current toxic climate within Abbott,s team was forced to deny it! I see in Turnbulls actions and increasing ability to tell it like it is, a threat to the future ALP and a bright and shining prospect in the dull night sky that is today,s Liberal Party.

Dear Belly,
The next two years should show us the difference between the sheep and the goats - and who's more qualified to lead. Interesting times ahead. Also who knows - Mr Murdoch does not like to lose, so it will be interesting to see how much longer Mr Abbott has Mr Murdoch's support. Posted by Foxy, Monday, 3 March 2014 9:23:25 AM

Abbott is no more or less than Murdock,s glove puppet now Foxy.
I am much more interested in reports of his failing health. And of the loss his newspaper arm is making. Posted by Belly, Monday, 3 March 2014 12:41:30 PM

Dear Belly,
I'm sure that Murdoch would love to add the ABC to his stable before he goes. We'll have to watch and wait and see what happens. Why do you suppose all this talk about "accountability" (not theirs - the ABC'S) and "value for money" - is really all about? Posted by Foxy, Monday, 3 March 2014 12:47:48 PM

I just know, every Australian should have the opotunity to read this link. Too to know every words is true. To know it is the tip of an ice berg. Then? think with me, try seeing why I just hate such acts from ANY UNION. I believe in unions, think they are the insurance we take out for our homes and cars, but in the workplace, for our health safety and wages/living conditions. I have been victim of these crimes, seen single mums living FOREVER in caravans, working to feed a child or more, being under paid because labour hire firms did under award deals with CFMEU filth, that both under paid and forced membership on workers! I am an ex union official. Too some, from within the very bowels, some further down than that, in my party condemn me, for saying ENOUGH! We drift from those brave men and women who forged both union and party, we seem, SOME OF US, unconcerned at filth joining us to make money from our weary and warn out members. Except the kick backs and you too are filth. Posted by Belly, Monday, 3 March 2014 1:03:27 PM

To the extent of us haveing by then seen one term Conservative governmentsgone.
We can never be sure of a balanced press/media.
I rather think Murdocks finger prints on American right wing Conservatives, his interventions in to Australian and British politics will be seen in plain sight by all.
And aging old right wing shock jock, he may be dead then,for sure public understanding of his true role and nature will have weaken his hold.
Along with the continuing English court case, but remember money buys justice often.
I think his sons think rather as he does but will they keep the loss making world wide papers/political tools.
Will, by then news papers fail to make the huge changes they need to stay alive?
