King Island brie, best thing to come out of Tassie since David Boon.
I've spent the last day reading through some transcripts of the grilling the government gave Professor Triggs and I can't for the life of me work out why they've done it. There is absolutely no political mileage in attacking her in this manner because it won't achieve a desirable outcome for the government, in fact it is safe to say it has completely backfired. With revelations that they offered her a different far more cushy job if she resigned from the HRC is a terrible look, what Abbott also fails to grasp is that people who will decide the next election don't like seeing children in detention centres. It is even fair to say that the more left wing Liberal voters (and even members of parliament) don't like it either.
Abbott is really scrounging around the bottom of the barrel to try and save himself, but he is yet to realise that people don't want an attack dog as their PM, the want a family friendly guard dog that doesn't bark at everyone walking by the front gate, but will come out if you try and step onto the property.
max the axe, but not az good az Chainsaw Al Dunlap or Dunlop of PBL and Sunbeam. that guy was a muppet, dont know much about MMW, apart from his hyphenated surname gives cause for breath cos he is prolly from some tosser tory alliterationz family in eastern suburbs on one capital.

Speers has just broken big story on Sky that it was Gillian herself who broached the possibility of her taking another job and leaving HRC back last year and talks went through January with govt coming up with some international "role"for her which she was going to accept but then her supporters got into her ear and talked her out of it.
If true, this means that Gillian has spouted big whoppers to the Senate Estimates Committee when claiming she was shocked at the Sec of the Dept coming to see, shocked that he äsking her to resign and shocked that he offered her another job.
It also means, if true, that our Malcolm has had another Gordon Grech moment.
Truly amazing.
I know what with all the lost notes and the like, memories are fading a little for the AG and staff, but you think that Brandis might have mentioned at estimates or in the chamber that Prof. Triggs approached him, not the other way around. It's those sort of details that stop your colleagues having to lie in Parliament to cover your arse.
The other is, perhaps even odder, that on this forum it's left leaning posters (like Gough) who are making suggestions that would probably see the LNP win another election ...

I was watching that on Sky and also recorded it.
The issue of the meeting Triggs and A/G secretary was run by Jacinta Collins and Penny Wong. Labor.
They clearly knew what Triggs was going to allege, whereas Brandis did not.
The odious Barry O"Sullivan who was the first interrogator kept his questions entirely on ascertaining the chronology of when Triggs made decision to hold inquiry not just a review.
Then on came Jacinta Collins.
Brandis and Moraitis would have had no idea what Triggs was going to say until she said it. Once Brandis realised the fantasy land she was inhabiting he would have been wary about challenging her on the spot.. there would have been concerns about health, Gough, imv.
btw there were two women supporting Triggs, one the executive director and the other the lawyer. Their body language during her evidence was grim and horrified and after that they made sure she didn't say a word until one of them had whispered to her.
I felt about Gillian Triggs back in November and more so after last week that she was extremely vulnerable and being pushed over the top by the heightened emotions of all prosecuting the children in detention issue.
Looks like it's back on.
HmmmHe's trying to draw out Turnbull and the ALP into being to the left of him so as to sure up the base of the party that support him.
Looks like it's back on.
Guess that answers my question.The way I see it is that for career politicians in one of the major parties, power within the party is more important than power for the party.
they might have numbers to armchair morrisson?Hmmm
Interesting.
I wonder if the right wing of the party would rather bring the party down than let it be run by the sensible centre.
Thank Christ for that.ABC are saying Turnbull has the numbers to force the spill. Abbott rein must be coming to an end.
And a lot of Labor supporters wanted him as leader. He would probably submit a 4 page document to Treasury for analysis if he was leader and running for PM at the next election. He could always copy Annastacia's in Qld.In ALP parlance this length of document usually is refereed to as a strategy document
Thank Christ for that.
What an utterly incompetent and stupid man.
Will probably leave a legacy as the hands down worst PM in our nation's history.
He should feel bad.
