Thanks Rorschach ... now we need to put some faces to the names.

I was rather surprised to see Andrew Robb still there. I worked with him, very briefly, at the NFF (National Farmers Federation) back in the mid-80s. That was when Ian McLachlan was President and Rick Farley was there. A real bunch of uptight, extremely right-wing arseholes. :mrgreen:

Turnbull will be more popular, but his private agenda is 'Water Privatisation"

Turnbull will try to sell our rivers to foreign banks.
Turncoat is on shifting sands, right now. :mrgreen: He needs to appease the right side of the Coalition (by keeping Abbott's policies) and he has started spending OUR money ($2 billion) to calm down the Nats.

I await his "Cabinet" announcements. wink wink, nudge nudge. He's an arrogant prick. Smooth as ........

IF somebody breaks away from the COALITION and starts their own Conservative Party before the next Federal Election ... I am sure they will gain more power than the Greens. :rofl
Noticed the Nats demanded the Water portfolio. Probably the single most fragile factor holding the coalition together.
The Nats know the same as I do, that Turnbull covets our water catchments for foreign ownership.

Turnbull will keep Shorten out of the PM's chair, but I was surprised to see so many anti-Turnbull letters from Lib party supporters in the Australian.

Doesn't bother me either way.
My sentiments are with "Reclaim Australia"
If Donald Trump is so close to the Ruskis, why couldn't he get Vladimir Putin to put novichok in Xi Jjinping's lipstick?

I wouldn't be so sure about that. The so-called "anti-Turnbull" thing started when there was talk about him challenging PM Abbott the first time (earlier this year?). Masses of "rusted-on" Liberal voters threatened to abandon the Liberals if Turnbull won and became the "illegitimate" PM. It was in all the Blogs and newspapers, etc.

NOTHING has changed as far as we "rusted on" Liberals are concerned now that Turnbull has become the "illegitimate" Prime Minister. He will NEVER win in his own right. Seriously.

We all plan to either not vote (and pay the $20 fine), go along and get our name marked off the Rolls and submit an informal vote (blank ballot paper or write rude words on it) or vote for an Independent or some other Conservative candidate. NEVER will we vote Greens or Labor.

If it means that Billy Shortarse gets a go at playing PM, sobeit. Australia is already stuffed.

Should Turnbull actually become a "legitimate" PM through the Coalition winning the next Election (March 2016, I hear), we would have already voted in a pseudo Leftard. IF Turnbull loses, he will take his marbles and retire to Point Piper (minus the PM pension and extras).

Besides, I am so sick of it all, that I don't really care any more. I am OK, Jack!

The union corruption royal commission has all but finished Shorten off.
His denials have been proven false.

I used to do industrial cleaning on weekends at a macadamia nut processing plant,
and commercial cleaning at a supermarket and kindergartens at night.
Shorten is lucky I've never been in a union nor he a union official in Qld.
Because if he had negotiated a deal like that of 'Clean Event' on my behalf,
I would probably have hunted him down, stuffed a cleaning rag in his mouth and a mop handle up his arse.

Isn't the ALP stuck with Shortarse until the next Election? I thought KRudd did something along those lines to stop them changing leader?

It should be interesting at the next Federal Election ..... Shortarse -versus- Turdbull ... perhaps we will just write rude words on the ballot or pay the 20 bucks for not turning up. :rofl
