I was going to ask Foxy for evidence that the Albanese and/or Gillard government passed more legislation that others, but realised the futility of that.

So I did it myself. Results:

Gillard - legislation passed per year - 24.3 bills
Albanese -legislation passed to date (10) annualised - 17.1 bills
Abbott - legislation passed per year - 25 bills

So clearly, using Foxy's claims, Abbott ran the best government.

Stand by for explanations that "the best way [to measure a government] is the ability of a government to pass legislation" except when it comes up with the wrong answer.

mhaze,

Are you serious?

How long has the Albanese government been in power compared
to the others, including Abbott's?

Your desperation to be right is looking silly.

mhaze,

Well said; although it will have little effect on Foxy, who seems to be departing from reality more and more lately. She makes claims that lots of legislation equals good government (totally daft, of course), then buzzes over your logic to say Ockernese has been in power as long as the others!

She's fond of regaling us with her health issues, but there might be one that she isn't aware of, and never will be.

Whoops. Who am I to talk. I left 'not' out.

ttbn,

More personal attacks?

Try a different tactic.

Foxy,

As I thought, the maths went over your head.

I took the number of bills and divided by the time in power to get a number per year. For Albo I took the number of bills passed in the first 7 months and annualised it (ie 10 bills / 7 months x 12 months).

Let me know if that's too complex for you.

You were the one swooning over how much Albo has done but now claim he hasn't had enough time to do much.

About what I expected.
