He said it was a better idea relative to an ETS, of the choices available, if for some reason you wanted a price on carbon. Not that he supported one.

Labor "achieved" their lowest vote since WWII.

No. It's over for Kev and the ALP for 2 or 3 elections. :D

I disagree. Submitting yourself to the Australian people is the most open, revealing thing one could ever possibly do. Adding Q and A to the list adds little to the debate. Regardless, senior coalition shadow ministers are on there weekly. I would submit to you that viewers of the show are...

He has nothing to gain by going on QandA, just as Julia had nothing to gain by going on Bolt. May be they aren't great politicians then, but it is sensible from both of them.

Sounds like Peter Slipper who is using posters from the 80s. Says he is saving the environment by recycling!

Do you see the irony of that comment. When presented with the facts or a left wing newspaper articles interpretation, you align with the latter. The Guardian is the self appointed "liberal" voice, funded by Graeme Wood.

The only people who have ever believed it are the uncritical cheerleaders of the left.

You understand people's thought process? Man you are more powerful than Rupert. I love this meme of the left. Talk about transparent. The right are so dumb, if only they could understand and if only they didn't have the master puppeteer Rupert controlling them. Much simpler to create a...

Probably reasonable to make an excuse for this behaviour if it were unusual or out of character......

I disagree with this policy as much as anyone, but there is zero risk of the outcome you are talking here. Where is the line up of childless women demanding the baby bonus over the last 10 years. Where is the line up of childless women demanding paid maternity leave already on offer by business...

Most lib voters I know oppose the coalition paid parental leave proposal. It is ridiculously generous IMO.

What is an obscene profit? What is a decent percentage in tax? Give us specifics.

I was referring to her as an electoral disaster. She was toast, rightly or wrongly she was leading Labor to oblivion. It won't be as bad with Rudd.

Gillard was a disaster, Kevin is not at her standing yet........

This one is particularly weird. Proposing a northern economic zone that labor described as wacky a while back when the opposition proposed it. Completely uncosted with a comment that there will be plenty of time for that, a behaviour that is their primary attack on the opposition. And now the...

It is about the current PrimeMinister and hypocrisy, not the nobody.

No, that's what they said they were doing, but what they were actually doing was criticising him at every single opportunity. They have always spoken more about him because they perceived its their best opportunity. Their current approach is a continuation of their long term approach...

That's probably true, but it seems the supposedly detached commentators have mostly concluded that Abbott came out better. The people that matter, the undecided, probably weren't watching anyway.

Of course there has never been any reluctance to debate from Abbott. As he said, There was always going to be 3 as is the recent convention. However it now appears it is Kevin who is ill prepared to debate. Reading from a prepared script is hardly a debate and is against the rules he agreed...
