Foxy,

Please read what I write before you write such nonsense. For the 3rd time I have never claimed he will reclaim the position of PM. Rather that he still exercises influence in the Liberal party amongst the conservative members, who may be in the minority, but have influence such as the ultra left whinge portion of the labor party from whence Juliar emerged.

Dear SM,

Keep your hair on. Of course Mr Abbott still exercises
influence on his hardcore supporters the point that
I've been making - and here's where your delusion
comes in is that - it's not enough - it's not large
enough to make any sort of impact where it counts.
He simply does not have the party support that's needed.
Simple as that.

It is crucial for the victim industries that were spawned by Whitlam and have sucked mightily from the taxpayer's udder ever since, to bury Tony Abbott.

Tony Abbott represents the reflective, reasonable challenge to assumed victimhood and eternal entitlement, and questions that need to be asked and answered. For example, what outcomes are there from the millions of taxpayers' money being poured into aboriginal housing? Where are the actual occupied houses and if they are not habitable, why not?

Another, what processes enable NGOs, consultants and various other fleas including public bureaucrats to be taking so many cookie-cutter mouthfuls out of allocated moneys that precious little ever reaches the intended recipients?
The greedy excesses of the lawyers and other professionals who made hay out of people trafficking were costing upwards of a $billion annually under the Labor governments of Rudd and Gillard with her treacherous Greens sidekicks.

There is not enough money to keep that gravy train running.

Shadow, as a disciple of the 'Anointed One' the bloke with the priestly experience, I can understand how you might believe in reincarnation and hope and pray that the Mad Monk will one day rise up and make a second coming. Do you believe he will come through Sydney Heads aboard a fiery chariot or something? Do you and the other hard core believers gather every morning on Middle Head and pray for the divine ones return?
You need a reality check, Tony Abbott is ancient history! Abbott was truly the biggest failure as Prime Minister since Billy NcMahon in 1972.

Beach where are the hundreds of millions Abbott poured down the throats of the greedy multi nationals that were once the Australian car industry, safely in the banks of Tokyo and Detroit. What about the millions Abbott wasted on advertising trying to convince voters he was doing a good job?

Paul1405,

You are making things up and trying to re-write history.

It was Greens Adam Bandt who demanded that the federal government commit and spend $900,000 million on the car makers despite the fact that they had already announced they were closing down operations.

Labor also demanded more money be gifted after bad, THEIR bad.

Intransigent unions helped to make car manufacturing uneconomic.

BTW, when will the Greens and their on again and off again mates, Labor and L'il Willie Shorten, put some distance between themselves and the CFMEU?

Foxy,

Most political commentators would disagree with you, even those in the left whinge Fairfax and ABC.

Otb,

Paul has delusions of relevance, I'm not his flaccid attempts at trolling with outlandish claims are trying to convince us that he is competent at writing prose, or that he has obtained some recreational herbs
