Well, according to a yet to be named Federal Cabinet Minister he is. Texting NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian "(Morrison is) a complete psycho". GB had her own opinion of Morrison, saying he is; "a horrible, horrible man". This kind of talk could be expected from the Labor Party, but from senior Liberals. With senior Liberals describing Morrison in 'Norman Bates' terms, can Australia afford another three years of him?

I have no idea what Morrison’s mental state is. I just know he is not, and has never has been, the right PM for Australia. I wouldn’t put much store in what a catty, failed politician gossiping with another one says. I do wonder what we would hear about the opposition leader if the media mob treated him the same way they treat the PM.

Isn't psychosis determined by a competent medical practitioner rather than by a party enemy? I am no fan of Morrison and wish the Libs were out, but the fact he was called names by a party opponent is nothing against the man.

This is not a good look for the Liberal Party.
Voters hate internal bickering. They may not follow
all the ins and outs of factual wars, but voters know
they cause paralysis in governments, pollute who
gets pre-selected to represent them, and leads to
cronyism within a political party.

So if someone in NSW or in federal Liberals thought this
was a smart strategy, they should think again. These
are childish games as the PM stated and they will not do
anyone much good - least of all the party.

The Liberal Party is yet to finalise all its candidates
just months out from a federal election. The PM wants
Susan Ley and Alex Hawke pre-selected. But leaking
explosive text messages will not solve the Liberal
toxic internal dispute. This bickering needs to stop.

There is an old adage in politics:

"If you can't govern yourself,
you can't govern the country."

This current behaviour is not a good look.

A number of Federal Liberal MP's have called for the Cabinet Minister involved to fess up, and RESIGN. The speculation is one from NSW, and a close contact of GB. We know there is no love lost between GB and ScumO, and there may have been cheering in the PM's office when GB got the dreaded call from the NSW ICAC.

Laura Tingle, Malcolm Turnbull & that Ostelen chap from tonight's 7.0 Report tried their hardest to discredit Morrison whilst interviewing Peter Dutton.
Dutton overwhelmed Tingle with answers which literally left her speechless. She couldn't even get herself to disrupt him with the standard 7.30 interruption quibble !

Foxy,
There's another saying about "if you want loyalty in Canberra, get a dog". No doubt there are moves happening in the back rooms.

I remember how excited the Tories and media were about stoking negative Rudd personal gossip and how Gillard was asked during a radio interview if her partner was gay so there's nothing especially new about this incident except maybe the timing.
The ALP has only won government 3 times since WW2 and that's only because the media temporarily changed its allegiance.
However I think this may also have something to do with Morrison's interference with the NSW pre-selections.

Tingle had trouble interviewing Dutton because he wouldn't shut up. I heard some dodgy claims that really needed to be challenged but then they ran out of time. He's obviously learned the Morrison "word salad" technique.

In a disgraceful act of self indulgence Richard Colbeck, the Minister for Aged Care spent three days in Hobart watching the cricket, whilst old people in aged care were dying from Covid due to his incompetence. Colbeck with his inflated sense on entitlement thinks this is okay. The clown should RESIGN or be sacked.

All this party politics is doing my head in.
It's all a bit much for me and I just don't
get it.

Hi Foxy,

Scott Morrison has three very important objectives for Australia.

1 I Scott Morrison be the Prime Minister.
2 I Scott Morrison be the Prime Minister.
3 I Scott Morrison be the Prime Minister.

These are noble ambitions and Scotty thinks we should all respect them.

If things get any worse with Covid and nut calling names, Scotty is booking an extended holiday for Jan and the girls, plus himself, to tHawaii for 12 months. At the 10 star Entitlement Hotel.

ps please keep in mind the new Liberal Party grab for the next election: "ScoMo GOOD Albo BAD" very catchy with the voters, a true vision for Australia.

Hi Paul,

What a depressing picture you paint.

I prefer to think that there is someone out there with
leadership capabilities who can lead us out of this
mess. I don't think it's an easy job for anyone right
now.

I don't think we have had a leader since John Howard and Bob Hawke. We certainly don't have one now, and we don’t look like having one for the next three years if Albanese is to be PM.

Hi Foxy,

No need for depression at this time, ScoMo and Albo will inflict that on us soon enough.

There is such a person, FRED ZIFFEL, a noble gent with the political qualities of a Churchill and the leadership qualities of Julius Caesar. I am somewhat reserved in my description of the great immortal FRED ZIFFEL, but come election day I fully expect millions of write in votes; "I vote One FRED ZIFFEL.

THEY said; "Cheer up things could get worse, so I cheered up, and sure enough things got worse!"

That above encompasses the main thrust of FRED ZIFFEL policy for Australia.

Cheer up please, life is a ....

Hi Paul,

Fred Ziffel is certainly a lucky guy.
No question!

As for Scott Morrison? It's too early to tell.
He's an unfinished story. The COVID-19 pandemic
has ensured his incumbency will be a significant
one, either for good or bad.

Leaders can only ever please their supporters !

individual,

That's probably true to a certain extent. However,
there are swinging voters who need to be influenced.
And success or failure may also depend on them.
Especially in marginal seats.

Foxy,
yes, it's actually the swinging voters i.e. integrity-devoid opportunists who are the real power. They're not concerned about the state of the Nation, only what they can gain from it with the least effort & responsibility. Sad really !

It won't be just the pandemic performance that will define Morrison's performance.

There's also the endless scandals and mismanagement - Robodebt, submarines, corruption, waste, hypocrisy, trade and foreign relations bungles and so on. It's been a difficult few years regardless of COVID.

He has been more interested in self-promotion and marketing than providing some sort of positive legacy for the nation and the notion that he and his inept team should somehow be rewarded by being re-elected makes little sense.

individual,

There are swinging voters I'm sure who prefer to look
at policies and past performance. Most people's
views are not set in concrete. Unless of course they support
the party regardless of what it does - like a football club.
Staunch supporters no matter what. Football mentality.

In a democracy - it takes all kinds.

Dear rache,

Has Scott Morrison really been all that bad?
Could anyone have done any better? given the
circumstances?

Now Barnyard Joy is getting in on the act according to the Deputy PM the PM ScumO' ,Morrison is a "hypocrite and a liar" and he's put that in writing. Just imagine a party meeting of these clowns!

"Now we will hear from the hypocrite and liar".....23 voices go up together, "who, me". "Nah ScumO' lying Morrison". AND in the back ground Cry Baby Porter mumbles, "Thank God, I thought they were going to talk about raping young girls...lucky me"

Is anyone seriously going to vote for this bunch of self indulgent clowns.

The Nationals need to rid themselves of that idiot right now if they want to be seen as having the interest of the Nation at heart !
The Liberals need to refuse to associate with him.
Show the voters they're made of better than this spanner in the works !

Beetroot Face offered his resignation to Morrison, knowing full well he can't afford to take it this close to an election, political susiside. I'd vote for Cry Baby Porter, before I'd vote for that self-serving creep, and that's saying something.

"Is Scott Morrison Psychotic?"

I don't know, I don't know the man personally.

But I'll say this:

How many people have died, or had their lives changed forever or lost everything simply because the government failed in its responsibility to quarantine?

We live on an island continent.
We have internet, and can see and speak with anyone in the world from the comfort of our homes.
We can unload ships without anyone leaving the ship.

Everything that's happened in the last 18mths could've been prevented.

They're always shifting the goalposts so what comes next?
They'd never let a good crisis go to waste.
They'd manufacture a crisis to keep their agendas on schedule.
This is what comes next.
http://www.digitalidentity.gov.au/

They want access to every bit of data on the planet.
I told you all this a long time ago.

I'm very disappointed with Albo on the Barnaby Joyce issue.

Barnaby Joyce was one of the better MPs in the Howard era, as he dared to speak his mind. But when he took up the deputy position he became another lackey. His actions made me lose all political respect I had for him. Indeed most of that respect would be gone before his displaying poor understanding of the issues and his affair with a staffer.

Now at last he's regained the courage to speak the truth about our PM, who's pleasantly surprised me by demonstrating he's able to take criticism. Far from being a sign of weakness, it's the first sign of strength I've ever seen Scotty demonstrate!

I still think Albo would make a better PM, but on this issue he really should shut up!

Everything that's happened in the last 18mths could've been prevented.
Armchair critic,
Had the people co-operated then yes, much could have been avoided !

Foxy,
I assume you're only talking about Morrison's COVID response - his record in other areas has been abysmal.

As for COVID, his tardiness and obfuscation in obtaining vaccines is well documented and the bold announcements that we are "at the front of the queue" simply didn't line up with the facts. He was big on announcements but small on meaningful action, as usual.

Those were not matters of hindsight but deliberate and selective decisions to ignore expert advice given at the time.

Likewise his response to Federal aged care and quarantine responsibilities fell very short (tragically) and he was happy let the States to do the heavy lifting, criticise them when things went wrong but also tried to take credit when things seemed to improve.
He was always against lockdowns - especially those in Aged Care, which are standard procedures for all contagious disease outbreaks.

The Jobkeeper initiative was based on the UK response and done in conjunction with and advice from the ACTU.

The Federal Cabinet was a good initiative at the beginning but in the end simply elevated the status of Premiers and we are now seeing the result of the eagerness to "let it rip" for Christmas. In the end we've been sacrificing the sick, poor and elderly for the sake of the economy and the current supply and distribution problems have shown you can't have a healthy economy unless you also have a healthy society.
The question really should be about what leadership has he really displayed?

Paul1405,
Bananaby's offer to resign is just self-serving nonsense and intended to protect himself. The deputy PM role automatically goes to the leader of the Nationals and I doubt he would offer to resign from that role as well. His own track record is also one of lies and hypocrisy.

Compared to the fruity and mendacious Juliar, Morrison is stellar.

The complaints about Morrison's handling of the covid issue are almost exclusively left whingers with 20/20 hindsight nitpicking over every decision and have also praised Pandemic Dan in spite of his numerous cock ups.

The reality is that handling of covid in Aus has outperformed the rest of the world in respect to the number of deaths and the Aus economy is now performing well against nearly every metric.

The chief whinger is Ablo who has never managed anything in his life and aspires to take the top job.

Give me a break.

SM,

You have nothing to say about the claims of Beetroot Face, and as yet unnamed minister, there's a dozen to choose from, that Morrison is a liar and a hypocrite.

Even the French President called Morrison a liar. Morrison has the character of a cockroach, my apologies to the cockroach.

Pauliar,

Every Green has the character of cockroaches including you.

Gentlemen,

Instead of calling each other names and making
derogatory remarks - why not broaden the discussion
and talk about concrete examples of failed policies
and programs of the government. I personally think
that any Prime Minister during this difficult time
would have a difficult job to do - and yet somehow
they have managed to muddle through. I doubt if anyone
could have done any better.

In any case come election time - you shall have the
choice to vote for whoever you think will do a good
job.

I see a lot of use of the "L" word but no examples of such deliberate deceptions. It has more to do with the posters here than the subject.

"Had the people co-operated then yes, much could have been avoided !"

Its not the peoples job to co-operate.
It's the governments job to protect the nation
- especially from a foreign contagion.

I remember a few months back thousands of Afghani's landing in the country.
Are you telling me we stopped accepting immigrants as per UN agreements?

The planes and people never stopped coming, we never had a chance.

This is exactly what they wanted, obviously.
You think Scomo cares how many people died or lost everything?

JOSE'

Does the French President post on this Forum, does the DPM post on this Forum? They both say Scott Morrison is a liar. Morrison is now claiming Joyce has seen the error of his ways, and has a changed opinion of him, it's now all warm and fuzzy. Do you believe that, I don't, and the majority of Australians won't.

If the CEO of a top bank, said the Chairman of the Board was a hypocrite, a liar, a psycho and can't be trusted, should the shareholders have confidence the bank is being run in their best interests? Should both people keep their jobs? That's what Morrison wants the voters of Australia to swallow.

shadow minister,

Come on old boy. The Deputy Prime Minister said of the Prime Minister:

"He is a hypocrite and a liar from my observations and that is over a long time.

"I have never trusted him and I dislike how he earnestly rearranges the truth to a lie.”

He should know.

No matter how much ink you squirt out of your wee appendage you are never hiding that utterly frank and accurate character assessment by his most senior colleague in the Coalition.

Live with it.

I'd rather vote informal than vote for the Coalition if Joyce stays !

Realise that Joyce was elected by 11 people out of 21 gathered in a room who in total represent about 4.5% of the national primary vote (about half of what the "dreaded" Greens managed). That's modern democracy at work and now his own party is trying to capture coal mining seats to stem the flow of rural votes decreasing under his leadership.

He once wrote-off a government 4WD by trying to cross a flooded creek and has never been known for his sound judgement.

I also remember the savage and highly personal media and political pile-on inflicted on Gillard so this current situation is just a bit of karma.

Pass the popcorn.

I think he'll be out long before the election, I just wished the PM would just say 'no comment' instead of 'forgiving' the mutt !

Whose fanning the flames, Dud Dutton?

Who on the Coalition side would have the most to gain by a Morrison defeat. Although Friedbrain thinks he's in with a big show.

Dud Dutton has been named as the one who thinks Morrison is a "PSYCHO". If true can he hold on, does he want to hold on. Time will tell.

Maybe he'll do a Barnyard and offer to resign. Then ScumO' can claim, Dud thought I was psycho, but now he just thinks I'm mad, we're just one big happy family here in Coalition Land.

Just read through the posts on this thread.
The greatest output of the most boring posts of all time.
All of it a pile of rubbish of which Twitter would be proud.

SR,

No matter how much you jerk off, every single PM is called a liar by someone.

Maybe you could point to a lie he's told if not then it is a simple epithet and you are the liar.

What did the French President say when asked; Do you THINK Scott Morrison is a liar? What did he say; I don't THINK he is a liar, I KNOW he is a liar!

If the Frogs know anything, they know a liar when they meet one. The French have a proud tradition of lying, starting with Napoleon.

Pauliar,

So as an accomplished liar yourself you should realise that the French were lying. Especially when SM produced the texts showing that Macron was lying.

I can't understand why people are taking a private
email of a member of parliament sent during a
difficult time in their life so seriously about our
current Prime Minster. The Prime Minister does not
govern on his own. He has a Cabinet and a Party that
guide him in the decisions that are made.

Finger-pointing and name calling is not very productive.
And actually smack of childish bully-tactics.

I saw this on a t-shirt recently:

YES I'm OLD SCHOOL
I show others respect
And I always help those who need me
It's not because I'm
OLD FASHIONED
It's because -
I WAS RAISED PROPERLY!

shonky, getting wound up there old son.

The name calling and lying is coming from the one side of politics, the government side. There are those in the government who want the Coalition to lose the election. This crap being dished out to the media is not by accident, but a well orchestrated attempt to bring down Morrison in the long term. All fingers are pointing at a Joyce/Dutton conspiracy. Dutton is on three stickers, one he thought he had the top job in the bag, but Morrison knifed Turnbull and got himself up, two he thought Morrison would lose the last election, but he got up, another loss for Dutton. Dutton's plast chance is for Morrison to lose in May.

When Joyce offered to resign, it was a test of Morrison's authority and Morrison failed, Joyce knows he has Morrison where he wants him.

The planes and people never stopped coming, we never had a chance.
Armchair Critic,
You would have been one of the most vocal screamers if the Nation had come to a full stop !

Pauliar,

What Bollocks, as you cannot actually name one of these lies, it is you once again that is the liar.

Dutton was asked yesterday if he plans to challenge Morrison, in a kiss of Judas, he declared his love and devotion for Morrison. Who can forget the Morrison arm of death around Turnbull when he to declared his love and devotion for his leader. A short while later Morrison stabbed Turnbull in the back. Will Dutton do the same?

Morrison stabbed Turnbull in the back

How so ? He got the numbers & Turnbull actually encouraged Morrison to put up his hand !

When Turnbull called a leadership spill it surprised most of his colleagues and Turnbull beats Duuton by 48 to 35 votes and Dutton and a few other Ministers resigned from cabinet.

"Plausible deniability was very important to Morrison," said a Liberal who supported Turnbull. He wanted to come to the prime ministership with clean hands so he could unite the party and avoid recriminations. "But he was in it right up to his neck."

And Morrison's acolytes within the Liberal caucus were very much part of the movement to get rid of Turnbull. They employed a devious tactic in the balloting for the leadership.

The first vote of the week, on August 21, was a two-man contest between Turnbull and Dutton. Morrison was not in the contest. His numbers men organised for five Morrison supporters to vote for Dutton in the first spill ballot.It was a ruse - those five were not aiming to install Dutton as leader. They were "parked" temporarily as votes for Dutton in a bid to slam Turnbull. Then, when Turnbull's position became hopeless, the way would be open for Morrison to enter the contest. The five would then switch support to Morrison. It worked.

On the next post-spill ballot, Dutton got 38 votes, Morrison 36 votes, and Bishop 11 votes so Bishop was out of the contest.

On the second ballot, Morrison got 45 votes and Dutton 40 votes and became PM.

It won't take many votes to reverse the situation next time if Dutton decides to make a move.

Some Morrison lies -

He lied about telling Albanese he was going to Hawaii on leave.
He lied about his stance against electric cars during the election campaign.
He lied about the EU blocking our supply of vaccines.
He lied about calling Sam Dastyari "Shangai Sam". (Of course, he did only use the term 17 times in public).
He lied about Government support for Clive Palmer's legal action against WA.
More info is still coming about about misleading the French about the submarine contract.

Of course all politicians tell lies but these have been very blatant and Trump-like, especially when they can be so easily disproven.

The Morrison governments incompetence has once more seen hundreds dying in aged care. Morrison's failures during the pandemic are legendary!

Lies are one thing, lives are another.

The incompetence of the Dan Andrews in Victoria has led to the deaths of well over 1000 people most of them in aged centres.

SM,

As you know, private aged care is a Morrison responsibility. In Victoria, by the time the State government took over, the damage had been done.

Good to see renegade Liberals crossing the floor and voting against Morrison and his religious fundos, and voting with Labor and the Greens.

Pauliar,

As you know, the Federal government funds aged care facilities but does not run them. The incompetent Victorian Labor government sent covid infected patients into the aged care system and bears full responsibility for all the deaths that resulted.

shonky,

Funding, accreditation, operation, of private aged care in Australia is a Federal government responsibility Hunt and Colbeck are the relevant ministers. You want to deflect away from Morrison's stuff up in Victoria which led to hundreds of deaths. Here in Queenland now two-thirds of deaths from Covid are in private aged care, because the Morrison government stuffed up on boosters and testing.

Morrison can run but he can't hide.

I watched Sixty Minutes last night and the interview
with Scott Morrison and his family. Wow! The PM made
curry (multi-cultural touch) for his family and
Karl Stepanovic. The PM even
got to play a ukeleli (shades of Hawaii) and sing.
His wife spoke about
hurt feelings, good manners, and how she felt when her
husband was so grossly insulted at the Press Club interview
and by the leaked emails. Tugged at our heart-strings.
Seriously - it did.

They even brought out the PM's wedding photos (he met his
wife when he was sixteen (she's older) and through their
church. What a wholesome caring family they are.

Antony Albanese is due to appear on Sixty Minutes next.
Poor Albo doesn't have a wife or family - how's he
going to compete with the PM? We'll have to wait and see
I guess.

Maybe he can give a dinner-party for his colleagues and
their families?

cont'd ...

Or maybe Albo can be interviewed in an aged care
facility or a homeless shelter and score brownie points
that way?

Hi Foxy,

Was there any apple pie in sight?

Me thinks Albo will be ordering in pizza, sitting alone in his bed/Sit in Marrakville, in front of the telly with a couple of warm tinnies on a Saturday night, watching re-runs of 'I Love Lucey' and repeating over and over to himself; "Wish I was Scotty, wish I was Scotty,
such a swell guy, and I'm Such a loser!"....can't get a gal like Jan, can't make curry...I'm such a lòoooooser!"

The 60 mins host cuts in; "That was Anthony Albonese, such a loser, our hearts go out to him."

Dear Paul,

It just may work after all!

Hi again Foxy,

Why does Jan remind me of Margaret Futon from the 1960's TV...."Now ladies this afternoon we will be cooking scones, a real treat to please hubby when he gets home from a hard days work" ......."tomorrow ladies we will be going all Continental, I will be showing you how to cook spaghetti with meat balls, won't that be a surprise for hubby when gets home from a hard days work."

Hi Paul,

Not sure about Jan being a Margaret Fulton type.
Fulton was too "homey." Jan strikes me more like
the Maggie Beer type. A good business-oriented,
manipulator. Who knows exactly what she's doing.
A good partner for Scotty.

Wow,

If I was Scotty I wouldn't be to worried about my curry burning and my terrible uke playing and singing, I'd be shocked by the NSW by-elections on the weekend. In the accused corrupter's old seat there was an 18% swing, and in the blue ribbon Liberal seat of Bega, a 13% swing seen them out on their ear. A bad result for the Coalition all round.

Morrison is about to sack his Education Minister Alan Tudge, he has no choice. Tudge has been found to be yet another Liberal Party woman abouser, that's 6 or 7 exposed so far, and still counting.

Pauliar,

So Tudge had an affair with his media adviser following in the footsteps of Hawke.

So far the Greens have two convicted paedophiles and one councillor charged with violent homophobic assault.

shadow minister,

It's not the Greens you should be worried about or
Labor. You support the Coalition and they're really
looking bad at the moment - they're even resorting to
accusing Labor of working for China, despite the fact
that Labor's not the ones in government. Things are
getting desperate for them if they have to resort
to tactics of disunity and play right into China's
hands. No wonder ASIO is concerned.

Foxy,

Labor has been brown-nosing the CCP big time, Sam Dastardly, Bob Carr and Albo have pretty much run up the white flag.

"The ringing endorsement of Anthony Albanese by the Chinese Communist Party propaganda sheet Global Times suggests that with friends like the CCP, the Opposition Leader does not need enemies. Labor’s deputy leader Richard Marles was busy on Wednesday claiming Labor and the Morrison government shared the same, bipartisan position on national security. That may appear to be the case in terms of Labor’s rhetoric, but not always in substance. Mr Marles and opposition foreign affairs spokeswoman Penny Wong are squealing that Scott Morrison and Defence Minister Peter Dutton are politicising national security in the context of the coming election. But during 3½ years of facing geo-strategic challenges unprecedented since World War II, the issue has emerged as one of the Morrison government’s strengths, alongside the economy. It is understandable that China wants the Prime Minister to lose. He has been effective and determined in resisting Beijing’s coercion. He also has been a key player in groupings that Beijing profoundly dislikes, such as AUKUS and the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue. In the national interest, Mr Morrison is right to dig down into his opponents’ positions on such profoundly important issues."

shadow minister,

You're really buying into all this misinformation
and supporting your team as always. What a pity.
I guess you're not about to change your tactics any
time soon. These tactics don't work any more.
And they will end up losing the election for you -
big time. Voters are not buying it. But sadly you
haven't learned a thing from what works and what doesn't.

Trying to smear your opponents makes your team neither
tough nor impressive. It makes you all look stupid,
desperate, and losers.

Your loss all round.

Your loss.

Hi Foxy,

As you know, I'm a member of the Greens, I make no secret of that here, so I won't push them your way, that would be insulting, as I'm biased. If its possible come election time, and if there is a decent Independent candidate in your electorate, you might want to check them out before making a decision. The Coalition is terrible, and Labor is lackluster in my opinion, but one or the other will be in government.

The problem for Independents is a lack of money to run a high profile campaign, unlike the big two who have plenty of cash.

Then there's the likes of the Treasurer, Friedbrain, with a personal honey pot of $2.5 million, not a cent of which is known from whom it came. Obviously from people who want access to government and the Treasurer in particular.

Hi Paul,

I am certainly weighing up all sorts of candidates.
And waiting to see how they shape up. However this
political game that's currently being played by both
sides of politics is not serving anyone well at all
and as ASIO is making quite clear - it's doing a great
deal of harm and should stop.

Dear Paul,

I watched a part of an interview with former PM
Kevin Rudd on these China accusations from the Libs
and the PM's speech. Mr Rudd certainly put things
into context - saying it was all political ploys
pre-election campaigns that are not doing either
side any good and need to stop. The only one who
benefits out of all this is China.

Paul, give us one person from the Greens currently in Parliament who you would support? From what I see they are a group of petulant uneducated school brats.

What about climate change proponent Zali Stegasaurus fraudulently trying to hide a $100 000 donation from a coal magnate?

Labor are weak on the economy, weak on security and fawning on china. Who can remember Juliar's glowing China white paper, Sam Darstardly's treachery and Bob Carr grovelling?

"Mr Albanese has a major task to convince the electorate that the opposition would be a “safe pair of hands” managing Australia’s dealings with China, defence and national security. His efforts will be impeded by several factors. First, others in his party such as Paul Keating and former foreign minister Bob Carr are intent on Australia cultivating closer ties with China. Victoria’s Andrews government signed on to the dubious Belt and Road Initiative, which Canberra tore up under its Foreign Arrangements Scheme. Second, when Labor was in office from 2007 to 2013, it cut the defence budget to 1.56 per cent of gross domestic product. In last year’s budget, defence spending reached 2.1 per cent."

shadow minister,

The Liberals record of "security" matters is rather
shabby. If I were you I would not bring it up.
Voters are not stupid. Just one example - In Oct. 2015
the Chinese owned Landbridge Group won the bid for a
lease of Port Darwin. The then Country Liberal-controlled
Northern Territory government granted the company a
99 year lease for A$506 million.

This will do for now.

Can't keep your money under the bed, THE REDS ARE UNDER THE BED.

Unfortunately the Coalition, time and again, resort to negativity at election time. Morrison will run an anti Labor scare campaign designed to frighten voters into voting LNP. They have done it that way since the days of Menzies. These morons want Australians to live a life of fear, it suits their political mantra to have Australians fearing for their future. Fear for your children, fear for your job, fear for your home and fear for your life.

I would expect after almost 10 years in office the Coalition could to point to some worth while achievements, progressive improvement in society and a plan for a better tomorrow for all. There is none of that just a whole lot of negativity, self praise and self indulgence.

PRPUD BOY JOSE'

Your question.

If I could find one GREENS MP that is bigoted, hateful and racists, therefore acceptable to you, I'd put their name up here, but there are none. I'm satisfied with the job being done by ALL GREENS MP's in the Federal Parliment.

"From what I (PBJ) see (and you see nothing), they (GREENS MP's) are a group of petulant school brats". An observation from a point of ignorance means nothing.

Kindly answer my question.

I've asked you several times to name your church. Then I can have a critical look at it. You have already said your church is populated by pedophiles, be it at a "community level". Obviously the word of God from the man up front is not doing much good if paedophilia is at a "community level" within your church. What has been done to remove paedophilia from your church? How about you throw a name in the ring, and I can discuss it with you. Better still you could start a new topic "Pedophiles in XYZ Church".

Pauliar,

Labor and the gangreens have been running a negative campaign for years, Albo has an almost zero policy platform and has simply been throwing stones.

Albo's past hard left whinge policies need to be highlighted given the tendency of labor leaders to promise one thing and then revert to type.

Krudd and Juliar are typical examples of Labor's bait and switch technique.

Pauliar,

You forgot the bigoted and violent gangreen councillor in Melbourne.

shonky,

I still recall your over the top boast about that reprobate Cry Baby Porter, accused of raping a 16 year old girl. What was it; Oh yes, that legal opinion of yours "Porter will be in for $10 million plus in compensation, a groveling apology from the ABC, 100 ABC employees sacked to pay for it all."

Cry Baby Porter had nothing to FEAR, but now Cry Baby is out on his EAR.

Pauliar,

Once again you are a LIAR and a FRAUD as I never said that.

shonky,

If I made such a ridiculous claim as you did, I'd like bury it as well. I put up the quote from you several times. It's buried in your history. Gone but not forgotten.

ps it was as bad as your Beat Up Bolt claim.

Pauliar,
