What would a Dutton Liberal leadership mean for the Liberals and the country?

Speaking of Linda Reynolds, is anyone remotely surprised at this?

Corrupt bitch!

Now come at me ya suing piece of s**t.

Let’s wait and see where Reynolds ends up when she leaves the Senate.

Just a hunch but I reckon the odds of her ending up in a lucrative job as an adviser/lobbyist to a prime defence contractor would be very skinny.

Doesn't matter where she ends up, watch where the defence contracts land.

Then let's take a look at all politicians and ses whee the public $$$ are going.

Yes, all the higher-up defence officials who owe their appointment to her know how to return the favour. Personal interest over national interest in the high $$ Defence portfolio, every time!

Most of the major problems Australia is currently facing can all be put down to small government.

Mental heath - government services decimated
Housing crisis - no significant new public housing investment for 40/50 years
Education - public education system neglected
Health - Medicare and other health programs progressively eroded or privatised
Energy - no major public investment since privatisation

Small government is going beautifully for Australians

The "magic of the marketplace" is a myth perpetuated by those who profit from it. While they keep us arguing over cultural wars or footy games they keep hoovering up the wealth and we suffer. You'd think people would catch on at some point, the system is working exactly how it is intended to.

Even middle class aspirationals who were swinging voters are being sucked into the sewer…or more like thir kids are

I bought it - not sure if they publish it online. The Monthly and Saturday Paper are a good news orgs to support

Dutton caught out on national TV this morning telling an outright lie and look how easily David Speers just let it slide and allows him to continue with his pre-prepared political talking point. Happened several times during his interview across several issues, including the Brittany Higgins rape settlement.

Insiders sure ain't what it used to be. The ABC not holding politicians of all persuasions to account is a deceitful betrayal of their charter and the Australian public who fund them.

The ABC is a joke, as an institution it should be demolished and restarted. Too many agendas from some, too many low standards from others and it consistently fails the nation.
