Yep!...a 'stunt" COMMENT: I'm going to try to convince readers that Abbott's appearance at the NSW fires was no more than a stage-managed event and there has been a lot of BS proffered as to what happened. You see, when a person becomes a PM, his/her world changes and it's all got to do with security and ASIO and the Federal Police are in charge. The PM has to go along with the security protocol, no questions asked. I have had extensive discussions with a long term person in ASIO and he put it.."You don't drive. You don't go to the shops. You don't call tradesmen ... If you want to go watch your kid play football the (Australian Federal Police) have to sweep the oval. It's a massive change."......Abbott did not just waltz up to the fires and do a shift. He turned up, security detail in place, had some photos taken, talked to some people, had some more photos taken...and that was it. Now we are immensely thankful and proud of the RFS volunteers.....but we need to call a 'spade a spade' in exposing Abbott, once again, as the well seasoned 'stuntman' in action....and anyone who believes otherwise needs to replace their suppository.
