Bye, Bye, Tony Abbott!

Earlier this evening Australia’s worst performing PM in living memory was dumped by a party that clearly should have acted sooner; Abbott’s two years of non-government, characterised by short term tricks, slogans, outright lies and his pathetic attempts to mesmerise the public rather than perform all contributed to his demise. Abbott and his loyal stooges never ceased blaming the former government for THEIR woeful performance and it was revealing to note that his last statement before the spill also elicited another comparison with the former government. CLEARLY, Abbott’s mindset is locked in opposition mode not ruling mode, the reason was/is obvious, Abbott has no notion of how to govern in his own right, notwithstanding he is, as former PM Paul Keating put it, an ‘idiot and dunce.’

Malcolm Turnbull, full of shit and self love

The Australian people lost faith in Abbott when he lied through his teeth to gain office then turned on average citizens. How he hoped to take the people with him after that odorous treachery is beyond reason but Abbott is regressive, inept and grossly dishonest and hoped he could continue the con with facile and transparent lies and gimmicks; he expressed himself to the people as though he was talking to a backward child, rather than addressing a very aware and savvy modern Australian public that was willing to tolerate his treachery if he performed but he failed miserably at every level of leadership. His supporters including mentor, John Howard, are now able to crawl back in their holes after assessing the damage Abbott has inflicted on the nation – supporting a dunce and total incompetent whose mind was locked in opposition was sure to compromise any supporters. If new leader, Malcolm Turnbull, a sleazy, narcissist lawyer, imagines he is able to place any Abbott supporter, including Scott Morrison, in his ministry he would be begging for trouble.

New leader Turnbull is a lying, deceptive, self-centred, sleazebag, a no-account; former Victorian premier Jeff Kennett accurately compared him to ‘show pony’ Kevin Rudd, another narcissist, plutocrat-serving no account -- the Australian people would wait in vain if they expect Turnbull to reverse any of the harsh, UNFAIR policies Abbott inflicted on the people while giving corporates tax breaks and large tax-avoiding corporations/banks a free ride. The fact is, Turnbull is just another blue-tie-wearing conservative under the thumb of elite plutocrats and the big end of town, as time will undoubtedly confirm. However, vain Turnbull considers himself a more sophisticated, polished liar and deceiver and has promised a “new [leadership] style,” style ay, which simply reduces to ‘show!’ Conservatives would do well to REALISE that the Australian people, especially after enduring Abbott, want PERFORMANCE and SUBSTANCE not fucking ‘style;’ politicians are as transparent as glass today and reveal themselves at every turn, and yet Turnbull imagines he is a sophisticated deceiver, in contrast to Abbott’s schoolboy inept lying, sleazy lawyers should choose their words carefully!

I have nothing more to say except I would nail Turnbull’s every attempt to beguile and deceive the public. Nevertheless, it would be a simple matter to prove himself a man of INTEGRITY like Jeremy Corbyn of the UK, but we all know better, no reversals of harsh policies and no alleviation for long suffering average Australians but a smooth ride for wealthy elites.

Anyone that wears a blue tie, a lackey trademark to semioticians, is not to be trusted. But we shall ALL see soon enough – when will they ever learn?

Now a final note for Labor. Shorten is a dodgy, weak-kneed, corporate owned fake, proven, however, the right person of calibre and integrity in Labor ranks would trounce Turnbull and have the full support of the Australian public. Be told and look to the UK for proof.
