Buzz by comparison supported the ousting of Rudd in 2010 and said a change of direction was needed.
He now supports the ousting of Gillard - I assume this is for another change in direction. Does it go against his morals?! Some may argue that his readiness to support a right wing policy of sending refugees to a third world nation with a record of human rights abuse - goes to suggest he has never had any morals to begin with..... Whatever it takes to win an election. What's a few lives ruined as a price.. |

One thing to note....
The LNP falls further behind in direct proportion to macca's panic posting. :) |

GILLARD is dead and buried and never to return. Kevin has put the fix in and ensured that won't happen again.
KEVIN Rudd's reforms to how Labor's leadership is elected have been overwhelmingly supported in a special caucus meeting. A number of senior speakers put debates for and against the reforms which would ensure it was harder for a leader to be rolled. Former Communications Minister Stephen Conroy and Defence Minister Stephen Smith were among those who spoke against the reform. Under the new rules an elected leader could not be removed from their position. In opposition a leader could only be removed in the circumstances of the incumbent's resignation or after a petition backed by at least 60 per cent of the caucus. Rank and file members would also get a vote in choosing a new leader. The ability of caucus to choose the ministry would also be restored under the plan. The initial proposal was for 75 per cent of the caucus to sign a petition for a leadership change. But it was watered down to 60 per cent. Sources said Mr Rudd recognised "in opposition it was a different circumstance" to change the leader. Mr Rudd said the party had "decided to democratise the party for the future". "Today the ALP has passed one of the most significant reforms in the party's recent history," Mr Rudd said. "Each of our members now gets to have a say, a real say in the leadership of the party. "The leadership of the party is now not in the hands of a factional few."

And has come back to support a hard line Right wing policy which shuts the door on refugees and dumps them on a third world nation. Playing politics with refugees supported by Buzz the "humanitarian". Meanwhile real humanitarian advocates and groups have slammed the ALPs policy as "shameful" and "disgusting". Not Buzz the humanitarian, whose morals are as weak as his socialism. It's all weak and without virtue clearly. No real humanitarian would support this. Have a read of what Amnesty thinks of Australia. |

When was the last time you voted labor at a Australian federal election? |

not too much 'fear' being felt in LNP ranks when Rudd has already started his predictable fall in the polls back to 52/48

Buzz is not exactly the sharpest tool in the box. I don't think he is able to cope with things when they don't go his way. Stick on some Kylie, put the pink apron on and dance around the caravan I think - forget the world exists. Which I think is kinda easy when you live in Nowhere-ville, Victoria. |
