Bob...Bob....Bob.....

( you'll need sound )

Yeah, that was fantastic to watch.

Two things I love about this snippet of Bob Katter:

a) His voice sounds like he's hit puberty a second time (which is pretty most much of the time he speaks); and

b) How his voice switches from happy and positive to stern and angry in the blink of an eye.

And the fact that the presenters basically laugh in his face. Shows the level of respect our politicians deserve is at an all time low

And we can't laugh at America anymore.

We can still laugh at America. But not because our politicians are better than theirs

Just. People are voting for Katter, thus our general intellect is sliding, quickly....'Merica!

Northern Queensland, though...they're a bit different up there.

I've seen them, he's appealing to people who are watching TV in the middle of the day....as they have no job....or the prospect of getting one.

How low is this government prepared to go!!

Absolute distain for the parliament and the people that elect them to sit.

Turnbull agrees/has been dragged kicking and screaming by his own party into holding a banking royal commission that for the previous 18 months he didn't want to have.

Not sure of Malcolm's home address at Point Piper, but you can be sure it's not on Leadership Street.

[mighty_tiger_79]

What about Turnbulls spin during the announcement...nobody believes anything he says. And after today he has stooped to a new low.


God knows how Sam hasnt been sacked.....thats another shocking display of leadership from Billy

[Grenville]

Sam said he was "shocked". Yeah shocked you got caught ya dodgy prick.

This China thing is interesting. Both sides are flirting with China and that's been proven over and over again.
However, it seems that the Libs are more keen to make something of the ALP's connections than vice-versa.

The Chinese seem confused and perhaps angered about our position on their nation, including our contradictory stand on trade at arm's length.
My comments about the Libs' stance on China above are reflected in this piece about Australia's recently released foreign policy position.

I read an even more scathing review of the white paper from China's state-controlled media - which would, obviously, reflect where China's leaders see us. Sadly, I can't find it now. It made interesting reading.

Australia has always had a vexed relationship with China and its peoples. It's interesting to watch, particularly now as we rely on their trade now more than ever.

Barnaby is back

[Pistol Pete]

Barnaby is back

I dont think he was ever going to not get back in.

Was there a swing for or against him?

Probably shows that people don’t really care about the fact that he was a kiwi. I think the law needs to be changed

[Brodlach]

Big swing towards him, think he had something like 60.2% of the primary vote

[bennymacca]

Wonder if the other candidates even bothered campaigning

Biggest swing 'to' in a by-election.
