Loudmouth,

"And yes, Abbott will be gone by the end of the week. Who are you going to slag then ? Is that your concept of 'politics', Abbott or not-Abbott ? Oh dear, perhaps you need to enrol in Politics 1 as well"

Why should I not criticise Abbott?

The Likes of you wouldn't dream of critiquing his debacle of a tenure.

If you cared to troll though my old posts, you'd find a fair amount of critique of Gillard from me.

As I mentioned, regarding this crop of LNP pollies - campaigning as moderates and morphing into extremists upon taking govt, deserves some commentary.

Lol!...Freudian Slip...

"troll" should be "trawl".

I think the Queensland election results
were truly amazing. Who would have thought
that Labor would gain so many seats and that
the Premier would get booted out of his own
electorate.

I wonder if the Federal Liberal Party has learned
anything at all from this. It was obvious that Mr
Abbott hasn't from his speech to the National
Press Club. We were given the same old spiel -
"It's All Labor's Fault!"
And the same old rhetoric.
It's sad to have a PM so out of touch with Modern
Australia.

When are the real changes that so desperately need to be
made going to be seriously discussed and implemented.
You can bet it won't be with the current PM running the
show. That was so obvious from his same-old-spiel.

I hope we don't have to wait too long for the axe to fall on Abbott, as I am sick of the groveling tone in his voice now.

The trouble is the Libs don't seem to have anyone willing to accept the poison chalice of Liberal leadership.
I too was quite surprised with how bad they did in Queensland, but also shocked that some people in Queensland have allowed Pauline Hansen to have another go at being a politician.
At least Jacqui Lambie won't feel so alone now.....

Poirot, Abbott's got a new name it 'Termite' once he gets in you can't get him out. Yes the speech was nauseating at best, down right sicking at worse.

Joe, you don't need to enroll in some namby pamby political cause, just get yourself down to the nearest shopping centre street corner on a Saturday morning and listen to what real voters have to say. In NSW the people have the same message for Bugsy Baird and the North Shore Liberal Mafia (Abbott and Hockey are both members) as the voters of Queensland delivered to Hard Boiled Newman last weekend.
Labor may not win the state election here in March, they are just as corrupt as the Liberal's, but they will give it a shake.

One for the Green hating Beach, our chances in Newtown just skyrocketed as the out of touch Baird, posted 40 eviction letters to locals for his $20 billion 'Westconnex' project. There were about 2000 people protesting in King Street Sunday, telling Baird what they think of him, the Liberal candidate was nowhere to be seen! The Greens are strong supporters of the local community and its people power that we want, not political power as exercised rough shod by the likes of Abbott, Newman and Baird.

Paul,

You are so right, the voters don't really have a choice at all.
