I did think it was a bit disingenous of him to say hadn't heard of the rape allegations against Mr Shorten. It must have been common knowledge in his circles.
Centre right of what exactly would find such comments, plans funny? I suppose the 6 months with no income every year for people under 30 without a job is also hilarious?

I had a laugh too, Joono, during Chis Pynes interview where they showed a video of students trying to burn an effigy of him. Except it kept going out, and Mr Pyne kept coming up smiling, god that was funny!

Yep I agree
and what he said is true
The Education Minister criticised university student protesters – some of whom repeatedly tried and failed to burn an effigy of him last week – arguing the government simply wanted them to pay 50 per cent of their education costs. Students currently pay for 40 per cent of the cost of their course.
"We're hardly asking for the world," Mr Pyne said.
"They really don't have the kinds of problems that they are protesting about that deserve the burning of effigies. We're asking to pay 50 per cent of the cost of their education. We're not asking for their left kidney to be donated," he said.
