2007 Federal Election - Coalition or Labor/Howard or Rudd? (1 Viewer)

Bishop is a talentless hack, much like the rest of the female Liberal Party members.

 

[jb_nc]

But she's not particularly talented is she? Ive always seen her as a bit of a joke, with the "naughty boy" quip to Rudd and stunned mullet response to Chaser

What is "talent" in politics?

She made it to Education Minister under John Howard who had an eye for a good MP, so I think that's enough. But Bishop > Robb > Pyne.

 

[Iron]

I did enjoy Pyne's self-proclaimed status of political animal, with a political instinct his collegues lack; "I tend to go for the juggular whereas others dont".

So gay.

Liberal president calls on Flegg to step down

sigh. I do hope the state liberals can get their houses in order before the next round of state elections from 2009.

Mal Brough would be good as QLD Liberal Leader. Doubt he'd want the job though.

Why aren't you contesting the Liberal leadership? I think you'd make a great PM

 

[Lindsay Tanner]

You beauty!

If your last name ends in a vowel, fuck off.

Rudd's success depends on who he sets as what, whatever he does; dont make him set Albanese for anything, hes a lemma in disguise

far out Iemma looks evil in your sig. i think it's the teeth...

 

[Kevin Rudd]

ruddles announces ministry

Gillard takes over education and keeps IR
Crean gets trade
Smith gets foreign affairs
Swan remains treasurer
Garrett retains environment; Penny Wong picks up Climate Change and Water portfolio
Tanner retains finance

To his credit, he didn't elevate the Labor celebrities (McKew, Shorten, Combet), to the ministry straight away.

The old treasurer took your advice, it seems.

John Howard and his wife Janette have handed over the Lodge in Canberra to Prime Minister-elect, Kevin Rudd and his wife Therese Rein.

The two couples sat together and chatted in the Lodge this afternoon.

That sounds incredibly awkward.

 

[katie_tully]

That sounds incredibly awkward.

Howard: So Kevin... do you like stuff?
Rudd: Yeah, I like stuff... Do you like stuff?
Howard: I like stuff
Janette: So Therese, do you like stuff?
Therese: I like stuff.

 

[withoutaface]

Howard: So Kevin... do you like stuff?
Rudd: Yeah, I like stuff... Do you like stuff?
Howard: I like stuff
Janette: So Therese, do you like stuff?
Therese: I like stuff.

Stuff: it's what the unions will do to our economy.

 

[Nebuchanezzar]

Oh come now Justin Simon, my union candidate. That mantra is old now. No-one believed you in the runup to the election, no-one believes you now. Turn your stale lines around to create a viable opposition. Please!

 

[townie]

why is union such a dirty word, unions are not the problem, some people in the unions may be a problem, but unions, as a whole, are not. and god help the workers of this country if the unions dissapear

 

[katie_tully]

loal, speaking of unions although separate from this one...

CSU SRC has banned clubs from promoting themselves during O week, coz the poor first years get overloaded with information.

the punishment if you're warned more than twice? disbandment and pulling of funds. not a popular move damn facists.

 

[Captain Gh3y]

coz the poor first years get overloaded with information.

CSU students a bit slow?

 

[mohamed100]

When is the next question time scheduled? I wouldn't want to miss that.

 

[Rafy]

Parliament is unlikely to sit untill next February.
