I've just looked up Dick Smith's biography
on the web.

It is impressive.

The man has achieved a lot in his lifetime
and would make a great Member of Parliament.
Reading about him - if I was in his electorate -
I'd vote for him.

Google it for yourself and take a look at what
this guy's done.

Impressive!

Foxy, compared to Dick's achievements all we can say about Bishops 27 years in parliament is that she has been totally self serving, with an overwhelming sense of entitlement, and that's being kind. Abbott once described himself as the political love child of John Howard and Bronwyn Bishop, I wounder what he though when "mum" sold him out in a sad attempt to save her own political skin.
I think there is every possibility Malcolm will give Bronny the tap on the shoulder before the next election as he tries to clean out more of the dead wood in the parliamentary Liberal Party.

I have to admit I am shocked she is even running for this seat at all.
I don't mind Dick Smith as a businessman, but one never knows how these sort of people would go in parliament.

I think even if Bronwyn was pitted against Jack the Ripper, he would win the seat.
She was a disgrace as a Speaker, and if Abbott had any b##ls at all he should have thrown her out of Parliament for good for her spendthrift ways.

It is a politically naive, shortsighted Fox and other lunar leftists who cannot see past their obsession with Tony Abbott and using BB to do that.

Dick Smith has been (rightly) critical of mass immigration and Big Australia, and of Labor and Greens stuff-ups that resulted in hundreds drowning at sea and porous borders.

If elected, Dick Smith would stand in the Parliament as a foil and an honest one to the double-talk, hypocrisy and shabby tricks of the treacherous Greens and Labor's 'Wolves in Sheep's Clothing', the Fabians aka International Socialists.

Be careful what you wish for Onthebeach.
Dick might not turn out to be the great white male Pollie you seek.
As I have said though, almost anyone could run against Bronwyn and romp it in.

Suseonline, "great white male Pollie"

"White"(sic) and "male" are irrelevant - outside of your obsessional bigotry that is.

You forgot to deride Christians. You were rushing your 'drive by' and forgot to load that bucket as well?
