Keep your tiara on runner,

The point being that the PMO has delivered nothing but debacle after debacle - and Abbott's latest contribution to the collective mirth of the nation is just one more blight on their house.

It was totally "unnecessary" - and because he possesses no real governing nous, he's in deep doo doo with the rank and file, ministers, backbenchers, you name it.

I'm quite happy for him to serve honours on the entire Royal family - and their corgis.

I'm equally happy for he and Credlin to stay where they are...all the way to the next election.

Why not:

Dame Faith Bandler, New South wales
Sir Wally Lewis, Queensland
Sir Noel Pearson, Queensland
Sir Ian Chappell, South Australia

and so on and so on. So many wonderful Australians. Brings tears to my eyes.

Dear Joe (Loudmouth),

You forgot to mention:

Sir Rubert Murdoch

Sir John Howard

Dame Gina Rhineheart

Just to name a few more - for "services" rendered. ;-)

OTB, I try not to read many of your posts, because they are ultimately the opposite of how I feel.
I don't need a chill pill at present, as I am too busy laughing at the current carry on about my fave PM!

I said well before the last election that I would be embarrassed to have Abbott as the PM, and I have been proved right unfortunately.

He said himself that this decision was made all by himself, so all the ranting about poor Credlin is just a smoke-screen by Libs that can't believe that they thought Abbott was the preferred leader at the last election....

Dear Suse,

I've just come across an interesting snippet
on the web with a writer suggesting that
Cardinal Pell would have been a much better
choice for the award then Prince Philip (for
services to religion and Royal Commissions).

We're reminded that Cardinal Pell is now in
charge of the Vatican finances and "giving him a
Knightly honour might help send some hard earned
Catholic cash our way - to help balance the
budget and help pay for the Royal Commission Pell's
church helped spark."

Suseonline, "I try not to read many of your posts, because they are ultimately the opposite of how I feel"

True, you often demonstrate only a vague awareness of the content of posts, my own included, before letting loose with your sarcasm - your trademark 'drive-bys'.

Tony Abbott, 'white' men, honours, UK, Royalty, 'MSM', etc., pressed so many of your red buttons it is no wonder you are struggling where to apply your whacking stick.

That is amusing to watch.
