At least it meant he wasn't spending it on private schools in depressed areas. You know the poor ones. Kings, Geelong Grammar.

A bit like Pinks supporters v Lib supporters.
Except a "debate" is usually a bit more involved than "your mob is farked - no, yours is more farked".

Phurt....in h world there would only be government schools...the wealthy would be taxed at fairer rates (there would be no deductions...
if parents wished to infect their offspring with religion they can do that in non school hours and at the their own expense - inc at temple, mosque or sunday school...similarly if they wish to invest class superiority they can enrol them in young libs

phurt...the frogs have got it right on this...personally I also support the French effort to stop people wearing religious advertising in public schools - ie veils, crosses and yamukas

correct
disappointed about the medicare co payment
disappointed about the changes to uni fees
because they were unannounced changes when the mantra had been no changes to health , no changes to education etc etc
need to take something from the middle to high earners first ...and then clamp down on welfare
cgaf about knighthoods ...oz is no different if PtG is Sir PtG or just a plain old ordinary Duke
annoyed about Palmer and Lambie being pains in the Senate ....they lack consistency and deal making ability ...
Happy with Morrison stopping the boats ...no one mentions they upped the reffo intake (non illegal entry) in conjunction with the appalling but effective deterrent treatment
Happy with scrapping the Mining and Carbon tax
They need to push on with their alternative Climate Change scheme ...(even though its a dud ) ...
They need to start acting like adults
..........
I reckon Morrison would be the best bet as PM if they replace Abbott
Hockey and Bishop arent up to it
Turnbull is too centrist ...too many think of him as a pinko
and the media has too many stupid statements from them to create the next feeding frenzy
...but it will be abbott or turnbull leading them by the end of Feb

Pretty fair assessment, A. You should be on Sky.
Only thing to add - no way Turnbull will be PM, as the Nats hate him. Personally, I wouldn't care if he took over. Don't think Julie is up to it. Morrison is too valuable doing the real work to be PM. If he does half as good a job in Social Services as he did in Immigration, there'll be a lot less Disability & Other bludgers suckling on the Govt teet thus slowing the massive hemorrhage created by the Pinks.

Looks like Turnbull might be angling for a possible spill next week.

The media, especially the ABC cheerleaders, have been utterly desperate to manufacture and then escalate this confected leadership natter ... but there is still no challenger. Jansen and Entsch are history, regardless of what happens.
Otherwise, nothing to see here.

aside from Abbott being a complete fool, what has got up the electorates nose is they understand perfectly the neocon agenda...and they do not like it....the rich get richer, the middle class get platitudes and the poor are punished

... as I said earlier, they're all qunts, but I just can't see any of the current qunt underlings lining up to depose the current qunt overlord any time soon; that'd be too much like turkeys voting for an early Thanksgiving and Christmas. IMO it probably won't happen until the proletariat execute a Total Qunt Exchange at the next Federal Election.

The fire is already a blazing inferno, no need for any stoking.

I disagree.
Whilst I think it would be crazy for the Libs to get rid of a sitting PM, I said the same in 2010 about Rudd and I was wrong then.
I really do think something will spill will happen.
But Abbott is just as likely to survive.

MT now odds on to be leader at the next election on Betfair. I might have to short him at those odds.
