The dreaded Hansonite pauses long enough from his Green bashing to warn us "Whatever you do, don't mention ABBOTT." Throwing out one of his usual silly old lines about one of his favorite hates the so called "gravy train riders" who he liken to a baby attached to a teat, probably a long time recipient of government welfare himself, but he does have that spiteful perceptions of certain others.

In n leach like fashion the extremists Hansonite, who pretends to be a phony moderate, tries to attach himself to the views of a perceived moderate, the phony Liberal Democrat, the 'angry white man' himself Senator David Leyonhjelm,. After fooling enough voters that he was both liberal and democratic, which by actions shows he is clearly not, Leyonhjelm used his unrepresentative privileged position in Parliament to force the government to hand over prime public land, which had been previously promised as open space for the entire community to a minority, the extreme gun happy brigade.

One phony attached to another phony, not to be unexpected.

Abbott's home-coming to the shores of England, what does that tell you.
Abbott's huge majority was the result of untruths fed to the Au public.
I do not see any change in the two party politics. Liberal needs cleaning up their radical impostor status.
There will be a surge of splinter groups, but i see that as short lived.
The world is turning away from the radical side of politics.
Climate change will be the biggest item on the list. Pacific islands will be wiped out. Creating a population shift.

There's quite a few people that we don't need to
mention. People who have disgraced themselves
in the political arena. We all know who they are.
Some have been kicked out of politics, some are
still around. Reforms need to take place. We
need to look at the perks and entitlements that
politicians are currently getting. That would
be a good place to start in these tough economic
times. Salaries and benefits need to be more realistic.
And their retirement benefits need also to be examined
and brought into line.

Then why is it that 60% of islands are larger, 25% no change and the rest smaller ?

Hasbeen,

Now see what you have done. Just the merest mention of Tony Abbott and they are off, frothing at the mouth and lashing about.

So many seats on that Guvvy Gravy Train and always too many of the forever-entitled, 'What about Moi!', sucking greedily from the Guvvy boobs, along with the networking* professional advocates and public bureaucrats who are fattened fleas on the victim industry, that taxpayers have been bowed over double by the extra weight.

*networking, feminist Emily's Lister double speak, 'Nudge, nudge, wink, wink', for favouritism. There is another, far more apt word for this immoral and unethical behaviour.

Ghosts from the Past
Not being mentioned are the big spending inheritances from the long dark years that the International Socialist comrades, the self-titled 'Progressives' (Regressives), Rudd&Gillard and the perennially disloyal, back-stabbing Greens, were in government.

There's a very interesting article written by Peter
van Onselen on the Liberal Party that's worth a
read:
