    2013 Federal election

    Re: 2013 Australian Federal election "Tony Abbott claimed that Julia Gillard has a big "target" on herself- inspiring evil people to assassinate the Prime Minister." Your words not mine mate. Thanks for playing.

    2013 Federal election

    Re: 2013 Australian Federal election If you were the leader of op, and it was inferred to you that you were being insensitive to the death of a solider and the war itself then what on would you do? I would want to scream and punch, personally. I believe Abbott was entitled to be physically and...

    2013 Federal election

    Re: 2013 Australian Federal election On this I agree. Leadership has swamped the political narrative of Labor, derailing their messages. Agreed the lack of trust is a major issue for Labor. What happend to the sole prism of leadership? Are your words failing you? Rudd is only popular because...

    2013 Federal election

    Re: 2013 Australian Federal election I have a certain degree of respect for Gillard, having to endure a minority parliament. If truth be told she will not live up to the Iron Lady status, tanks and nails are quite different. However, i'll hand it to her that she always does appear to be in...

    2013 Federal election

    Re: 2013 Australian Federal election I wonder what the direct action policy is? And their embrace of the reduction target? It is very possible that people can change their views, like your Banker friend. What Abbot said was disrespectful - he should of said behind closed doors. However, just...

    2013 Federal election

    Re: 2013 Australian Federal election Heaven forbid that you enter politics... To dismiss other influential factors (such as the Surplus lie) is foolish and immature. Politics is not just about leadership and backstairs intrigue. The popular notion that Rudds handling of the ets was...

    2013 Federal election

    Re: 2013 Australian Federal election Apologies... Typo. It should of read: "(or, sadly, it shouldn't)". Not to the extent that we see Liberal gains/Labor losses through the sole prism of some shoddy leadership mistakes. The current state of labor is blamed in part for many factors. For...

    2013 Federal election

    Re: 2013 Australian Federal election Yet won two elections? My point was that it matters little (or, sadly, it should) what popularity a leader cultivates, that counts for nothing in running the country, implementing successful policy, keeping check of the party room etc. Indeed, Abbott has...

    2013 Federal election

    Re: 2013 Australian Federal election By one vote. I doubt that bloc will be as powerful as it was given the fortunes of the party now. I ask of you what socially progessive polices this bloc wants? Well woopy-de-do. All Turnball has to do is appear at the right time, make a few comments and...

    Does HSC plus and EAS stack? (UNSW)
