Short-term Shorten

Anybody but shorten the blood of two prime ministers on his hands,  the union machine man,  the grubby social climber and worse.

They know shorten can't do it for them, Albo might, after all the work he put in on himself, new teeth, new clothes and diet, all for what? so the unions could roll him even though he got over 60% of the rank and file votes. Must have been a bitter pill to swallow, the divisions and hate is still there.

who cares who leads the labor party as long as they win the next election and start governing for the people of Australia instead of us having a govt that only cares about hanging onto power and will do absolutely anything, moral or not , to ensure that

Similar to the new man that became Premier Barry O'Farrell.  

Lost the beard, lost the weight.  

Many years later attained his goal. And quickly lost it due to a gift of Grange.

......................................

I believe tactics are in play. Again.  Leave Shorten there to fill a time-gap and for the public to pick apart. Thence shortly before an election, change the leadership to Albanese.

Abbott's love child turns into shaggy dog story

(March 22, 2005)

 

Mr Abbott had started a relationship with Ms Donnelly in 1975 while completing year 12 at St Ignatius College, Riverview. When the pair went to university, Ms Donnelly gave birth to a baby boy at Mater Hospital, Crows Nest, on July 26, 1977. Mr Abbott was under the impression that the baby was his son and he saw him briefly before Ms Donnelly relinquished the boy for adoption five days after the birth.

Who'd be game to vote Labor with the prospect of another round of back-stabbing and leadership challenges  from this dysfunctional party.

So an accused rapist, a union hack, a knifer of 2 sitting prime ministers and a nasty tempered bully is OK to lead the Labor party as long as they win?

This goes to show that politics in this country has been pollluted to the extreme, the "whatever it takes" mentality we saw in the 80's is still the go with labor and its adherents. Shame about that

anything would be better than what we've got atm

Is it only Labor who changes leaders?

I didn't know Labor was in power in NT, Victoria and NSW.
