SM,

"How you so easily forget the complete stuff up in every area that was the Labor government."

Au contraire.....

"The Abbott government has been in power 686 days and, in the wake of a turbulent half year capped off by the Bronwyn Bishop expense scandal, it is a valid time to ask a question that is often debated online and among political scientists. Is this the worst federal government ever?

I'm talking here about the effectiveness of the Abbott government. Can it pass legislation? Perform administration? Do Australians judge it to be effective?...."

"On this criterion, the Abbott government is the least efficient government of the past 44 years. Even William McMahon's government of 1971-72 passed more legislation – and McMahon is often dubbed Australia's worst prime minister.

To date, the Abbott government has passed just 0.372 acts per day since it came to office, compared to 0.438 for the Rudd/Gillard/Rudd governments (and Gillard had to contend with minority government), 0.452 during John Howard's tenure, 0.476 for Paul Keating, 0.491 for Bob Hawke's governments, 0.481 for Malcolm Fraser, 0.472 for Gough Whitlam, and 0.436 for McMahon. Barring some unexpected burst of productivity in the latter half of this year, the Abbott government is on track to have the worst record for passing legislation since the late 1960s."

But of course we shouldn't overlook Abbott's monumental achievement of shifting QandA between ABC departments.

Stunning ability to get things done!

Who in the Labor Party assigned the "attack dog' roll to Burke The Jerk on the 'Get Bronnie' project? If it was Shorten, which I can only assume it was, he needs his head read and committing to an institution, Callan Park springs to mind, obviously a sandwich short of a picnic. Bouke's best mate at the moment is none other than another first class fraudster from the Liberal Party Chris Pyne.
I'm fully expecting any day now to hear of some Liberal or Labor poly who commandeered Cinderella's gold carriage at great taxpayers expense to take them and a bunch of freeloaders to meet Alice in Wonderland.

The latest "entitlements" rorts are beginning to surface.
Goodness me - how depressing it's all getting.
No wonder people are becoming disgusted with the current
mob we have in Canberra - (on all sides of politics).
What else is going to be disclosed?
People now have to be very careful as to who they condemn -
you never know what (or who) else is going to be put
under the microscope.

Makes you wonder if any of them don't have their noses
in the trough?

Now that Labor is also proved to have entitlements use that doesn't pass the 'sniff test', Fox is all for putting everyone into the same bag to diminish the arrogance, deceit and hypocrisy of Shorten and his frontbenchers.

Why weren't you told eh, Fox? But you were and you were in that river in Egypt, denial, as per usual.

What punishment should the Kangaroo Court that was in session for Bronwyn Bishop mete out for Labor's entitlement abusers?

Now for the endless rationalisations and excuses. What frauds.

Poirot,

This gov has stopped the boats, emptied most detention centers, Signed 3 FTAs and reduced government spending.

I still cannot recall any serious achievement by Krudd or Juliar.
I look forward to you refreshing my memory on any promise they kept either.
