Yes because the video clearly proves that he is a crap PM.

:hmmm:

I know i know, it's meant to be a light-hearted video, and i'm being defensive.


I think the video producer should do a video about the Australian Public in relation to Politics. Now that would be actually funny.
Subject matter would be easy:
1) No idea about current Budget Deficit and what caused the deficit
2) No idea about past Budget Deficits and what caused them
3) Ohhh let's blame the Liberals for the Budget Deficit. How easy.
4) 'I vote for Labour ie i vote for Budget Deficits.'
5) 'I vote for Labour ie I vote for Unions, i'm awesome.'

That's of course just for the main points.
That...would be funny.

Pretty funny in places but an adult language warning for content @1:19 would have been fitting.

It's unbelievable he actually got voted in.

You're judging that on the contents of OP's video?
Or are you relatively familiar with Australian Politics?
If the it's the former, then it's a throw-away line.
If it's the latter, then we need to brush up some of your knowledge of Australian Political Parties, in particular the Labour Party and the Liberal Party. As it stands, in 2014.

He seems to have Duyba's talent for shooting from the lip. :)

From what I have read, Abbott has impressed me as another one of those politicians who discovers that being totally negative and critical while in the opposition doesn't magically work for you anymore, when you are the one with the power and having to make the big decisions. We have our share in the US.

At least you can laugh about your PM. Here we tend to cry about ours and all the rest...

I am relatively familiar with Tony Abbot and his party's policies. But if you're implying there is something different about their voting system... I was not aware of that.

I think he's implying that the previous Labor government's performance was the main factor in the election of the current LNP government. Anyone relatively familiar with recent political events in Australia would understand that and therefore not be amazed at their election,unless you were a die hard Labor party stooge with a poor grip on reality.

During the election it was clear to even the most senior Labor leadership who would form the next government.

Sounds fairly familiar, even down to the party names... :hmmm:

Our Labor dropped the "u" for some reason in its past. Our Liberal/National Party (LNP) is more like the Tory Party in the UK and the Republican Party in the US in a lot of ways but very different in a lot of ways also.

The LNP is a bit more centrist than both of those on some social issues but potentially further right on things like border protection and economic protection, historically.

He shouldn't have allowed that constituent to learn of his secret identity. Now everyone knows that Richard Cranium is Super Oz.:O:
