section 474.17 of the Criminal Code Act 1995 (Cwth) ... broken by Tony Abbott maximum penalty of 3 years imprisonment. section 13 of the Crimes (Domestic and Personal Violence) Act 2007 (NSW) ... broken by Tony Abbott maximum penalty of 5 years imprisonment and/or $5,500. Tony, if you truly love Australia (the place you and your family came to to get a better life, hmm a little like the refugees you hate), if you really want to make Australia a better place, it is easy ..... RESIGN IMMEDIATELY so we can start to repair the damage already done by you.
I must be an idiot, of course Abbott didn't ACTUALLY mean he was going to "Assault" Putin, so what he said was " false or misleading" and he knew it was " false or misleading". OK then it's alright ..... not section 93Q of the Crimes Act 1900 (NSW) maximum penalty of 5 years imprisonment of course Putin would not have been fearful ... Now if he didn't mean to cause fear in Putin, why did he say such a statement. To suck up to the rednecks that support him. Most Liberal supporters are criminals and thugs so I suppose they got a kick out of our leader offering to do something that is illegal. He's one of the boys ... RESIGN ABBOTT for AUSTRALIA'S SAKE
Its a football term, and not violent or even physical. People might have different definitions of it perhaps, but some might choose to use certain ones to suit their political agenda He said that so people didn't put up an anti-Putin fuss when all of a sudden Putin was driving around Brisbane in a limo....now all the good little muppets can hate on Abbott and support Putin for being 'bullied' or something. Drones will be droned
WOW you know as much about football as you do politics ..... nothing It is illegal and highly dangerous. Like Abbott, highly dangerous. As for Putin, I think he is an (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*), but that does not excuse the Leader of Australia to break the law. He said it because he is a buffoon.
If you don't know what he meant by it, as you obviously don't, perhaps you should ask him. It might stop you looking like a bigger buffoon.
The prime minister of Australia saying he'll 'shirtfront' Putin or saying that he'd do it to any leader of any country... makes him totally inept and ludicrous and so (*)(*)(*)(*)ing foolish and dangerous and ridiculous and DUMB for office. What a freaking idiot!
I know exactly what he meant by it, it was to show he is a testosterone driven thug. I know Putin is a thug, but personally, I would like a leader who is a statesman, the world has enough thugs. It is you my friend who is looking like a buffoon. Nothing he does could be wrong in your eyes ... isn't love sweet, especially man love .... snookins
I think there's something wrong with the man. I mean, seriously, not just political rhetoric from me (for once ). He doesn't seem to be in control of himself, perhaps the job has got to him, he knows he's incompetent and he's liable to panic every now and again.
Just what we need as a leader .... NOT RESIGN ABBOTT and HELP BUILD A BETTER AUSTRALIA ... move back to England
Big Tony and the team are doing a great job with the appalling mess they inherited from the Rudd/Gillard/Rudd circus. Unfortunately Abbott is not very good in front of a camera, he has work to do. So unlike Rudd or Gillard he does not seek out every oppotunity to waste time grandstanding in front of cameras. Oh, and Tony does not consider himself to be our 'leader', he is head of a TEAM. Unlike Rudd who thought he was some kind of all powerfull emporer of some sort! OUR GREAT LEADER is Laborite mentality.
Of course you will say .... He stopped the boats .... But I did say ONE GOOD thing so that doesn't count. (It may in your opinion, but not in most of the people I talk to, although I will admit, most I talk to are well educated thinking people). I mean one GOOD thing. ??????
Try school, education is a good thing, then you won't need to ask silly questions. Good for Australia.
Hmmm, after 12 months of Abbott and Co running down our country, politically , financially and more importent, stealing our core values it is hard to believe that someone would call Labor incompetent. That really is gross.... Regards
Mate, it has NOTHING to do with Labor's competency or the competency of it's leaders. It's about ideology pure and simple. A small percentage of voters vote absolutely and purely on the ideology, both Liberal and Labor. I would put in my opinion, Axial in this group. They have this intrinsic hatred of socialism. This is however based more on the fear instilled in them due to countries in the past that have had rouge governments that have coincidentally been socialists. Now most of this grew out of one person some 50 to 60 years ago. Senator Joseph McCarthy. http://www.biography.com/people/joseph-mccarthy-9390801#synopsis This man has done more harm to freedom then any man in our history. His unfounded claims, (he acused hundreds of people from the President (Eisenhower) of the United States down to most actors and actresses of being communist infiltrators. He could not however, substantiate any of his claims against a single member of any government department. McCarthy was the conservatives conservative. This crazy mentality and hatred of communism has transferred to socialism as the hard core conservatives need to restrict civil liberties (freedom inn other words) to make their Democratic Capitalism work. I know this sounds back to front, and McCarthyists like Axial will scream that it's the opposite, that it is communism and socialism that deny civil freedom. That's because they naively believe what they are instructed to believe. They will never admit that it is not ideology that creates bad government, but bad governments that pollute ideologies. Example of freedom. In Australia, a basically socialist country. Remember the Labor Party were there at Federation and the Liberals didn't arrive for another 43 years. The Liberals said they formed to be the government of the ordinary people, a government for people that were not looked after by Labor. Now "ordinary" people could not have been the workers, the working class, the majority of Australia. Ordinary people were the elite, the business owners, the farm owners, the aristocracy because to aristocrats other aristocrats are the norm (ordinary). Now I am using Aristocrats with slightly different meaning. Unlike Mother England we didn't have thousands of privileged Lords etc. Land was given away in huge packets creating a new and different form of aristocracy. Now a little aside here because it fits perfectly here. The indigenous peoples that had lived on this land for thousands of years had never put up any real challenge to this outright theft like the NZ Maori who unlike the relatively peaceful Aboriginal peoples were extremely war like. They were driven from their lands, their food supplies were destroyed and their lands were filled with hundreds of thousands of these tasty, docile animals. As we did nothing to compensate them for their land and the destruction of their food supply they felt entitled to remove a few of these tasty animals to feed their families. This was known to them as hunting, survival, normal and traditional. It was known to the settlers as theft. Now the mindset was if we allow them to steal the sheep they will survive and breed and could possibly want their country back. Starving them was cheaper than bullets and a lot less messier than poisoning their water supplies as some sheep may also drink the water and sheep were a more valuable animal then the Aboriginals were. Anyway I am getting off topic and I do not want to be reported AGAIN by some thin skinned reader who's only possibility of beating me is to have my post deleted. So there you really have it, it's ideology basically and freedom. Conservatives do not want us to have freedom, they want to sell it to us at a profit, after all, it's not about freedom, its about PROFIT.
So the question was very poorly worded. What you actually meant was, "Tell me on thing that Abbott, sorry Team Australia, has done that I think is good". So actually the question is non-sensical becuase you are the only one who can answert it!
What a silly response, I asked a 10 year old friends son, what was good about school. He told me what he thought was good about school. Seems he was smart enough to realise that I did not want to know what I thought was good about school, rather what he thought was good about school. Now I do not think that a 10 year old is smarter than you, I think, like in so many of your posts, you have no answer so you resort to school yard tactics. Reading the colonel's remarks in another thread, it seems I have company. If you have nothing, you divert, and by God you do a lot of diversion. Like... "look it up yourself" ... translates to "I can't find an answer". "So what you actually mean" or "So actually the question is" translates to "I don't know how to answer so I will change the question". "The facts are" translates to "I think it is" or "I wish it was" or "I hope it is" So once more for any dummies reading this. What things do YOU think Team Australia has done that improves Australia, as a nation, it's economy, it's security, it's image (this would be good lol) or it's people or ANYTHING that people would classify as "good".
You'd have to go right to the beginning and reference nearly every decision, takes too much time to point out the good. It might be easier to point out the bad, but given you hate Abbott so much, it might be a better exercise for you to genuinely go through and pick out the things you think were good. I mean, it seems logical people on the right will support those decisions by the right mostly, so its sort of a funny question if you expect us right leaning folk to answer when we'll probably just say 'everything'.
Well I am hoping that someone on the right actually looks at what is being done, not just blindly saying it's all good because it was done by a conservative government. We all know that the Liberals can do no wrong in your eyes, that's why I didn't ask you.
That's better DV. You ruined your previous question by immediately saying you would not accept 'stopping the boats' as a good thing so we could only infer from that that you were only interested in 'good things' that you agreed were were good. Now in answer to your more rational question above I have to say it is the governments job to do all those things so they cannot really be classified as 'good', doing those things, which they are, is just doing their job. If you want something they have done over and above their day to day job of being the government, there's of course stopping the boats and the deaths at sea, getting rid of the carbon tax and the mining tax but when you think about it, even these things are really just the government doing their job. The good thing they are doing, is their job.
