What makes you smile?

The LNP hasn't outlined policy for it's next term should it get elected.
If you choose to vote for that then you forfeit the right to complain when they do something you don't like. Blind faith only goes so far.

Ok, I'll grant you that as long as you forfeit the right to complain when the ALP fail to deliver on any election promise and dump the sitting prime minister whenever it suits them.

Shit, I just realized how much I need to watch a good game of rugby right now!

The only reason they borught back Kevin 07pm is to save a few seats on election day and it won't be the blood bath that it would have been under Julia Gillard.

dump the sitting prime minister whenever it suits them.

Bill Shorten for PM?

This thread is in the Public Bar. Most people realise that a pub is no place to rave on about politics or religion. Except the drunken ballbags who think people are interested in their ravings. So; Time gentlemen please.

Or STFU!!!

Whichever one you please.

'I've had a few myself' he said
'But I never quit when I'm ahead
Too many rules and regulations
Stupid laws designed by fools behind closed doors
And another thing I won't discuss is religion
It always causes a fight
Vavoom!

Don't like it, don't read it

There is a saying that "You get the political leadership that you deserve"

Between Rudd, Gillard and Abbott, a trio that should be screaming unelectable. It makes me wonder how we have fallen to deserving such poor leadership.

It has come about after a generation of "Presidential style" elections, where people are too focused on "voting the leader" rather than paying attention to who the local muppet is who is actually getting your vote and blessing.
This works during an era of strong leaders (read Whitlam, Fraser, Hawke and Howard) but meanwhile there is 30 years of coat tail riding oxygen thieves being voted in or out on the strength of their respective party leader.
My advice, ignore the opinion polls and focus on the who is the best candidate to represent your values and priorities in your electorate.
Until we do we will never get genuine national leaders as there is no depth in the potential pool to draw on.

Thank you Burgs.
Vote for who is best for the people! Not just for yourself.

Must say sitting in a pub in the UK when Rudd was announced, the laugh about a "banana republic" and another life made me wonder about our party's.

What is surprising is that everyone is smiling about that topic...?

Yep. And I still think they should STFU about politics.
