By special request , I have been asked to put in a new pole - Best Prime Minister in Last 40 years ?
This is my opinion.
This is a bit tougher to me. Being a labour man at around the time of Hawke - I actually liked the guy. He had that charisma - who could ever forget his statement when Australia won the America's cup? - "Any boss who sacks anyone for not turning up today is a bum". However the major blunder was their stopping neg gearing , and starting it again after they realised their mistake.
Then you have John Howard , who inherited 96 Billion debt and piad it all off , leaving a 20 billion surplus.
So to me , its Howard - only just.
