Abbott to challenge ACT laws in High Court

[i-need-a-martini]

He couldn't let it go, could he?

If this gets through, it will be the lowest point of his government I believe.

Why on earth would they do this? Aren't there more important things to do?? Like, umm, stopping the boats? Fixing the economy??

Once again they are treating the residents of the A.C.T like second class citizens.

so typical, a diversion from the real work of a pm, like allowance rorting, stopping the boats, economic issues, employment etc, you know...real issues?

this guy is a joke, but the joke is on all of us, not just the lnp voters

It happened before with the euthanasia issue.  The democraticly elected LA passed a law and the feds recinded it.

Before the election TA pretty much indicated he is willing to change his mind on marriage equality.  Must have been one of his "in the heat of the moment" thing.
