Fortunately for the nation a clear majority of the voting public do not think about Tony Abbott and his party the way that you do and when you say He’s not a PM’s backside! I have to agree if only because the current resident of the lodge is a total PM’s backside!

“Safe pair of hands?”
“2010 policies?”

What’s safe about Abbott?

He is so dishonest that he and his cohorts contrived a lame excuse NOT to submit their policy costings to Treasury under THEIR OWN Charter of Budget Honesty.

And why? Because they contained an $11 billion black hole.

To make matters worse, he said they were audited by their “accountants” only for their “accountants” to issue a public statement that they DID NOT audit them.

So much for honesty!

Already he has an $11 billion black hole from his 2010 election costings, a $70 billion budget black hole, a $10 billion Direct Action black hole … Add to this the scrapping of the Carbon Tax, the Mining Tax, and this guy has well and truly proven he’s irresponsible and not fit to govern.

He’s also too much in the pockets of Big Tobacco, Big Mining, Big Gambling and Big Polluters!

He’s not a PM’s backside!

I really don’t know why you think that the coalition has to reinvent the political wheel before the coming election, must be the leftist mindset that is obsessed with eternal change. All Tony has to do apart from pointing out that he is not Labor is to assure the voters that he will be a “safe pair of hands”.
The 2010 polices almost won the election for Abbott and now as Labor’s soap opera is tanking why change a willing plan.

As Miss Eagle suggests, I think the idea is to have a policy of “Not what Labor would do”
Then if they win they can do what they like.

Completely fair comment.

Australian voters want to know, and have a right to know exactly what the Coalition stands for 365 days per year, not just the 33 days of the election period every 3 years.

Abbott and the Noalition are simply playing lazy politics, expecting to get into government simply by stating “Vote for us because we are not Labor”.

Abbott and Co would be far more devastating to this nation than any tax ever could.

You’ve put that together nicely. I think there are two ways we can look this policy thing – lack of policy thing.

1. Abbott & the LibNats aren’t expecting an election for quite a while…in spite of appearances.

2. Abbott & the LibNats figure there’s only one policy & it doesn’t need costing – it will be a GRJ campaign. Get Rid of Julia. And, should they win, as they believe they will, they will get a great reward from an eternally gratefully nation who won’t expect them to have policies as well.
