Mega Thread All things Tony Abbott

[HairyO]

**** I'd love Abbott to be PM again just to see the Libs decimated in the next election.

Have you not seen the current polls?

I dare say a lot of Turnbull types would lose their seats (no need voting Labor Lite when you can vote Labor) but the Conservative ones in safer seats would be just fine.

Well the more conservative ones are in the high liberal/national held seats like Abbott, Dutton and co. The ones that will lose their seats are because they are not representing their constituency and having to bow down to the ultra conservative wing of the Liberal Party, which in turn will see them lose votes to Labor and the Greens.

There are plenty of seats with Conservative voters. A lot of the problems come from the fact that there is a heap of branch stacking going on (particularly in NSW) and small liberals are getting preselected.

Much like Labor have had similar issues with branch stacking where the views of the greater electorate are not like the views of the preselected member.

That said, you use the words "ultra conservative" which I assume is a label you apply to everyone who thinks differently to you.

America has ultra conservatives. We have conservatives. But its always good to get your hate on.

You have to admire the sheer front of Abbott banging on about how it's important to keep promises such as the plebiscite. As PM, there wasn't a single promise he wasn't comfortable in ripping up.

No, I was referring to people like Dutton and Abetz who are ultra conservative. Christensen too. It has nothing to do with my views, it's about their views and where they are on the political spectrum.

Tony Abbott may see his role as the upholder of conservative values in a Malcolm Turnbull-led Liberal party, but swing voters are not buying it.

In extensive focus group polling conducted last week by Ipsos Australia for Fairfax Media, the dominant reaction to Mr Abbott was that he was "a sook" who voters wished would go away.

 

[NSWCROW]

Lacking the convenience of his regular 2GB spot, with the locker room bonhomie and silky encouragements of Ray and Ben, Tony strode to the doors of Parliament House on Wednesday morning to say N-O to same-sex marriage.

Hardly a shock. For Abbott, holding back the scourge of progressivism is a vocation, a holy crusade, a righteous undertaking.

There's a conservative safe thread on BigFooty if you think you would feel more comfortable there.

Nah. I'd rather have a laugh at the conga line of Guardian devotees.

Assume you donated to their lost cause.

He certainly makes more sense. I prefer Tim Blair.

Wouldn't link to either.

All good, just trying to help out a newcomer.

At least you know it's there if you ever feel a pang of vulnerability and need to retreat to a comfort zone.

 

[RupieDupie]

Meanwhile in Australian politics a beast has awoken in Parliament House. "What's that I smell? Gay marriage". Immediately the beast rises and rips his shirt off revealing taut rippling muscles and a hairy chest, with budgie smugglers. "I'll save you Australia!"

 

[Pie eyed]

I honestly cannot wait until Abbott is finished and hope he lands violently.
He is a such a weak, smarmy cnt and an embarrassment to our country.

 

[Maggie5]

Nah

Hope it is a leaky boat.
Send me details when you have them, I want to donate too.

I still can't believe he became PM. That's got to be an all-time low for Australia.
