How come Tony Abbott is officially launching his campaign headquarters tonight?

Time expired today for calling a 11 May election. Election must be the Saturday before 23 May, which means only 18 May as the remaining date. The election is as good as called by not calling it today.
 
Conservatives are dumb not to out-flank Labor on the climate change issue.

It is an issue in Australian politics with no resolution, it is akin to saying you want "action on global peace".

No amount of policies or $ or blabbering from Aussie pollies will ever solve "global peace" so just smack on the virtue signalling heavily and hope all the snobby mums in Melbourne's east fall for the BS.

Conservatism naturally includes conserving the environment in which you live, without radical changes by socialists. They are doing this by having joined Paris. Now, the rhetoric in Australia must change too.

The conservatives have comprehensively outflanked themselves on the climate change issue to the point where they can't announce a policy they haven't already run a scare campaign against.
 
The good old Murdocracy. Pierced Wackerman in a Liberal T-shirt with Liberal propaganda leaflets. Two knuckle draggers in unison. And the Murdochracy, the dregs of journalism, run ads claiming to be fair and unbiased.

The guy's a duplicitous prick and some of his answers were very telling of his character and self-importsnce, but this headline is incredibly misleading. I actually think he answered that question as best as anyone could.

Then he went and said this -
“Instead I sat quietly on the backbench and campaigned for the re-election of the Turnbull government,”
 
Then he went and said this -
Yup, that's what I was referring to. The complete lack of self-awareness is quite stupendous really.
Yes points for being honest but really, he shouldn't even be approaching the topic of leadership. Silly.
I guess he could've just answered that he has no intentions to lead the party at all.

And now this arseclown:

So much factually wrong with his argument I scarcely know where to start.

Strange he's so perturbed by GetUp encouraging members of Abbott's electorate to vote for any candidate who holds less obnoxious views than Tony (ahem! democracy), but makes no mention of the Bennelong Society, the Lavoisier Group, the HR Nicholls Society, the Samuel Griffith Society and the IPA who have all been behind the scenes railroading the debate in the Libs' favour for yonks now. (Guess they don't take kindly to no blow-in upstarts.)
 
Also, after declaring the Victorian election a ‘referendum on the EW link’ once Andrews got elected premier, publicly invited him to abandon that very policy stance.
Apparently under Turnbull, and now Morrison, the $3b on offer is still locked up somewhere waiting for the nod

Truly the most expensive wedge in political history. Let’s hope it was the high point for such lazy politics.

This will never happen while you have people like Abbott around who cannot stick to a position.

I signed up to the Paris agreement, but I want Australia to pull out, but maybe not because it is too hard.

That opinion piece was absolutely appallingly Tone-Deaf, almost made me feel embarrassed for poor old George W Sheridan Junior.
Loon Ponds nickname for him " The Bromancer " is spot on
 
Uncle Rupert trying to help his man Tone and shift some useless murdered trees


The most mysterious event in the Sydney seat, where the former prime minister Tony Abbott is fighting a challenge from the independent Zali Steggall, is the arrival of unsolicited copies of the Telegraph, which began in late March.


Residents in Manly, Queenscliff, Curl Curl and Fairlight said they had begun intermittently receiving copies of the News Corp tabloid newspaper, despite not being subscribers.
The Telegraph has run a number of stories that would not have delighted Steggall’s campaign.
The free papers have caused both irritation and mirth. “Useful to have camping if you run out of toilet paper,” wrote one recipient on Facebook.

A spokeswoman for News Corp said a small number of homes had been involved in recent sampling activity in the Manly area, which had now ceased.


“Sampling activity is a standard marketing practice to introduce products to potential new customers,” she said. “All of our sampling activity is based on our market research.”

There's " hanging onto a cliff face by your fingernails " - desperation and then there's " being the last guy left who hasn't ridden the town bike yet and dropping to your knees begging and crying for a go while she walks off hand in hand with the bloke she's already ****ed 100+ times " - desperation


Think we know which one this is
