Gillard lost the confidence of the Australian people long ago when Abbott and his shock jock mates began their campaign of "search and destroy."


Abbott and his "shock jock mates" hated Kevin Rudd with as much passion and are as anti-Rudd.

Yet -

1) Kevin Rudd remains the number 1 choice of the Australian people for Prime Minister

2) Julia Gillard has led Labor to its worst polling in opinion poll history and trailed the Coalition for its entire term.


Therefore, is Gillard not the issue??

This quote proves Andrei as unable to come to grips with what Government is: a social institution!

Markets- regulated markets as there is no such thing as a free market anywhere except in your head- provide goods and services for the people but Governments provide goods and services for the markets to even exist via taxes.

Andrei is just one those hotshots who can't accept that a bloke named Anthrax dropped the mighty american ego on the casino floor and forgot to yawn!

Exactly. It doesn't matter what this government is achieving now, even if it's good. We just don't care anymore.

After 2.5 years of bad polls, nobody cares enough to vote for Julia anymore. She's gone.

I am not impressed, especially when I hear about (1) removal of discounts for upfront payment of HECS fees, (2) cutting support for single mothers, (3) still giving too much funding to private schools and (4) having your treasurer say it's no longer worthwhile to get a budget surplus and then continuing to cut costs anyway!!!!

You're playing a game of tennis. It's 2 sets to Love and you're not doing anything to win this one. You continue to double-fault and lose points. Hardly a way to win the match is it?

good post mnemonic.
short of tony tearing an achilles or a hammie, he just needs to play out the match.
still he is a doofus so anything is possible.
i find no difference between julia and tony on where they want to take the country and i find her voice annoying and he is an orator of very low quality.
it amazes me that 2 such low quality people are fighting out the final at wimbleton.
how did this happen. Wink Wink

its very rare that i am vexxed , but i truly find this a vexxing question.

whitlam,hayden, fraser, hawke, keating, howard, costello. these people were at least seeded in the top 100. one could enjoy watching a tennis match between a keating and a hewson.

but abbott v gillard  on centre court.  OMFG Wink
no one would turn up for that.

they shouldnt have even got a wild card entry into the tournament

Are you seriously asking  this question of a union planted stooge who has done more damage to the ALP brand that anyone else I can recall and has produced the worse polling figures I can recall against an apparently unelectable Abbott ?

Let me ask a question of you...... if I said 10 years ago that Abbott will be walking into the job of PM with polling figures opposition leaders only dream of what would you think ?

That has to be mostly credited to Gillard, but to be fair Swan and rest played their part in destroying the ALP brand.

Gillard and the ALP ..... including Rudd ..... have behaved like an opposition party in government, in no way has the ALP looked comfortable in government, most of the damage has been self inflicted.

And what a joke that turned out to be. She could have taken the time to go with local ALP stooge Ed Husic and talk with the hospital manager at MT Druitt. The hospital is in need of an MRI machine. Instead she left her Rooty Hill bunker and a few weeks later announced a $21 million gift to the Disney company to shoot a movie in Oz. So much for her caring attitude towards the people of the West.

Excellent point, I agree a certain latitude should e given to a new PM but given the back stabbing way she stole the job, then made unpublished dirty deals  with people most don't care for ...... and we are expected to feel the need to let her have another term because she is getting better ? ..... if she wanted the job so badly then she gets no latitude, in fact from the start she will be judged more harshly..... and not because she is female but because she is an incompetent lying idiot.

I do think that history will shine a different colour on this government and it's achievements but in present day this lot couldn't sell an Anzac badge on Anzac day.  The problem is they have had very very stupid advice and on some level have made some terrible policy decisions. 


Let's look at a few examples:

1. Tony and turnbull announce an nbn alternative policy.  It's crap.  The business groups say its crap and the independent experts say it's crap. But what does the government do?  Try release their attack dog conroy, who is a wanker and despised in the electorate.  Gillard, not really a mention.  This is the first fully funded policy announced by the coalition, announced by tony, and instead  of all the ministers beginning a campaign against it they let conroy, a man who is dull and noone listens to, do all the talking.  Then, the next day they decide it's more important to talk about a fast rail link between Melbourne and Brisbane; something that will cost billions as will never happen.  Sorry... But WTF???????  Where's the political sense? Where is it, to realize the last thing you want to talk about is a futuristic project that will cost billions? Why not attack a stupid policy by a self confessed "non tech-head?"

2.  Media reforms.  Good idea in principle yet no consultation at all and a measure included in the policy that can only send warning bells: a ministe appointed individual to oversee the regulation.  Not only does it play towards liberals campaign that labor are full of bureaucratic union officials embroiled in corruption, but in general it's a very very bad idea.  WTF??????

3. Gonski.  Experts claiming the policy had very poor consultation and even Gonski himself rejected their policy.  WTF????? How can they lose on education to a barking chihuahua screaming Conski and that's it????

4. Asylum seekers.  Enaging in The fight to the bottom of the barrel, to capture the hopes and dreams of xenophobics around the country. WTF??????

5.  Mining tax.  Poor design because of "negotiations" that turned a good policy into a WTF????

6. Calling a fixed price on carbon a carbon tax.  It's like they wanted to lose a fight against the nutjobs like Allen and tony. 

7. Allowing tony to go on tv and say, "I'm sorry but we will all have to share the pain and lose some benefits we've all grown accustomed to." yet, superannuation changes to the top 1% is bad bad bad and superannuation tax changes to 3.4 million of the lowest paid is good good good.  WTF??? Where are you labor???? If a person is going to vote tony who is in the 3.4 million then you know you've lost.  Especially of they agree they should burden the pain, but the wealthiest should still get a benefit.  WTF???????????????????

It's almost like we agree with tony that poor people existed in Jesus's time so it's only normal. Seriously...WTF?????

Labor lost the plot not just because of some poor policies.  They just can't sell anything and aren't politically astute enough to realize when to capitalise.  Howard was a magician at it.  Gillard is woeful.


a great number of analysts say the policy is good - not crap. There are some who hate it but also some who think it is great. It is just wrong to say that the majority say it is crap. But it sounds a lot like the argument for the carbon tax. 'experts' love it but everyone else hates it so we conclude that 'the carbon tax is loved'.

Hmmmm I tried googling your claim and yet can't seem to locate much "good" analysis.  Perhaps you can substantiate your claim with more than your word?  Especially since we know your a prone to stretching the truth.

it is a labor thing to keep on the right side of so called celebrities who will forget rudds fawning over Cate Blanchett. it was nauseating...and gillard all but dips a curtsy to Obama..

its labors way of saying they are creating jobs.. even though they may only last 3 months.its all illusion... pity about the DEBT.

You don't have to like it or agree with it but you don't get to make the claim that experts believe it to be crap. An AMG Mercedes is better than my car. it doesn't therefore make my car crap. It does however make it affordable.


I don't know what your car is. I hope it isn't crap.

Once again, perhaps you can substantiate your claim with more than your word? I know I can. I'll go get all the good old opinions from those with a bit more knowledge then definitely you or I. Smiley

Longie:All it takes is a simple google search:
https://www.google.com.au/search?q=coalition+nbn+policy&aq=f&oq=coalition+nbn+po...

Obviously don't worry about the www.liberal.org.au links Wink  They aren't really "experts" or anyone to offer much credibility to.

Also, a very good read: http://theconversation.com/the-coalitions-nbn-policy-is-a-triumph-of-short-termi...
