History will remember Julia Gillard as one of our best PM's

She achieved so much and even though wasn't the most eloquent speaker or a great seller of policies (in my opinion) she was one of the best. I'm sure there must be a tally somewhere comparing her achievements against Tony Abbott's fails somewhere?

History will remember Julia Gillard as one of our best PM's

Interesting post A3  : "TONY Abbott was one of the most unpopular political leaders ever to win an election, a new study shows. "
The Australian AAP FEBRUARY 21, 2014 2:56PM
"That was nearly 12 mths ago, nothing changed fir the better since.."


I expect a couple of others to C&P without checking,  but not so much yourself A3. However, from the same article:

Abbott least popular PM in 25 years: poll


For the first time since the study began in 1987, none of the nation's political leaders scored above an average of five on a scale of 0-10, with 0 for strongly dislike and 10 for strongly like.

Nationals leader Warren Truss was the most popular leader following the 2013 election with a score of 4.34, followed by Mr Abbott (4.29).
"Labor leaders Julia Gillard and Kevin Rudd scored 4.04 and 4.07 respectively, while Greens leader Christine Milne was the least popular on 3.81."


"Tony Abbott, on average, is less popular than any prime minister in the history of the study, which began in 1987," report co-author Sarah Cameron said."

 

A litle reflection:
Nationals leader Warren Truss has never been a PM!

 

Mr Abbott (4.29), Labor leaders Julia Gillard and Kevin Rudd scored 4.04 and 4.07 respectively.  I think that actually indicates Abbott has a better score and thus could not be "the most unpopular political leader ever to win an election"

 

Perhaps the authors were unsure at the time who actually was the leader of the Circus, Poor Me or Rudd!

 

It might also be that "co-author Sarah Cameron " could be a Cycloptic or even a "sister", but she certainly does not proof read, or even present any!

I think the result was in the minute Labor ditched her.

 

She "killed her own government" as her colleague's said, then she disappeared off the face of the earth for a year because she had no guts to face the country. 

 

History will not be kind to her, history is not kind to her,   don't count the old trouts, the wrinkled feminists who laud her just because she was a woman, hollow praise

 

The sisterhood will aways rally to her but they don't really know what she did to this country or her party or they don't care, all they care about was she was female and that in  itself says volumes of the many on here.

 

The social politic was poisoned by her vindictive rants, her nasty finger pointing and her pathetic attempt at relevance.

 

Who is the real Julia? the knitting Julia, the simpering Julia, the flirty Julia, all in the hope that that might do it for her, of being relevant.

 

As a PM  she failed utterly and as a person she hid herself behind the girlie giggles, the simpering smiles and the flirty mannerisms, the vanity shoots and staged photo shots.

 

We rarely saw the real Julia, that persona was for behind closed doors, like Dorian Gray, nobody wanted to look at the real Julia, nobody dared to.

Becoming a Top Rated Seller and qualifying for eBay Premium Service

Qualifying listings will display the eBay Premium Service badge to let buyers know that you offer high levels of customer service, and enjoy the greatest, on average, advantage in Best Match search results.

To qualify for eBay Premium Service, you must offer all of the following on each listing:
Free postage to AU buyers
Same business day or one business day handling
30+ day money back return policy
Express postage option - offering delivery within one day

 

 

That's what I said so what's the problem. It has nothing to do with your feedback at al as you said. so that was wrong too.

Did you not read the advisory notice to stay on topic?. As you assertions are incorrect again, I am compelled to address them.

am - Getting a good ranking in search has more to do with being a top rated seller etc than whether you list by auction or BIN.

 

iw - post 89 ***You cannot attain top rated seller status unless you offer bin, free postage and 30day return.

 

 

I never once mentioned feedback in relation to top rated sellers, in fact never mentioned it at all.

 

***Your assertion that you can't be a top rate seller unless you offer buy it nows (BIN) is incorrect.  Read the quoted info at the top of this post for requirements to become top rated seller.

 

eBay have not practically stopped auctions on ebay. Auction listings with Shill bidders are still rife also.

 

I have not posted any incorrect info, to the contrary actually.

But the sisterhood never let the facts get in the way of their Abbott hate. 

 

Abbott more popular than Rudd or Gillard  but for some reason she can't bring herself to say it.

 

It reminds me of the ballot for leader of the labor party, Albenese got over 60% of the votes but Shorten won??? 

 

It must be a leftist thing.

Well why didn't you C&P all that instead of nit picking parts and agreeing that shill bidding is the reason a poster has more than one ID.

Abbott is not more popular than Gillard. He isn't more popular than any recent PM. 

 

March 2014 - Tony Abbott has gone negative faster than any Prime Minister in more than 40 years of Nielsen polls, with the exception of Paul Keating..

 

On the downward slope since then.

I never said that either. Introducing the topic of BIN's re shill bidders was irrelevant.. which is what I pointed out. 

 

I have 4 ID's... I would never say having multiple ID's is a sign of shill bidding.

 

I am replying to your off topic posts which came after a advisory notice, because you are spreading incorrect information about eBay practices.
