"I am not seeking the top UN Job....like he denied I am not undermining Gillard, I am happy as foreign minister , I have no intention of challenging for PM again" and on and on and on.
The ego has landed, the madman in charge of the world, world domination, look at me, see how clever I am, please forget I called the whole Chinese nation something to do with rats and I promise I won't meddle in everything, no really, I promise.
Does anybody seriously believe he went quietly into the good night? no, he's been furiously trying to elevate himself on the world stage again, why? because he feels, in his mind, he is all powerful, more clever than everybody and he really deserves to be in charge of the world.
His own former Party hates him but I wonder how long it will take to install him in the Pantheon of Labor heroes if he gets the UN role? Shorten will suddenly be his best mate and agree with everything he says, even if he doesn't hear it.
Of course he denies it, that's what he does.

True, but I can't think of one place the UN has really made safe, they are paper soldiers who are shackled by UN rules and regs and yet they get billions every year, what for?? that's the question.
As for a TEMPORARY seat that costs us millions in bribes to secure, well I'm against that under any govt.

The UN is a joke and should be disbanded. They are a total waste of money and anybody who disagrees with that should look back to the massacres in Rwanda.
Based on that logic - and given some of the videos that have popped up on social media recently - one could argue that America would be better off without any police force.

Someone here already does!
Mind you...they'd be in a far worse state in the hands of civilian militias!

It's called an analogy.
Anaology: a similarity between like features of two things, on which a comparison may be based.

What a 'hateful' opening post.
There are quite a few people who might be up for the top UN job, most of them are females... time a female got the position. One is Helen Clark ex PM of NZ.
