Imagine a Campbell Newman style swing except its Federal and instead of Anna Bligh it's ScoMo.

Imagine that Channel 9 Shredder graphic just going down the loving list.

Hahahaha, a gotcha from Leigh Sales.

Dutton rushes on to spruik how good the government is and how they'll stop the boats, but just now Leigh has blindsided Dutton with Malcolm Turnbull questions as he hasn't been on 7:30 since the spill.

What? I want to see this.

An Air New Zealand plane on its way to Shanghai was forced to return to Auckland after several hours in the air on Saturday because paperwork for the flight included a reference to Taiwan.

Lid: Feb 18, 2005; And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

quote:

BRYAN DAWE: Mr Howard thanks for your time.

JOHN CLARKE: Well, good evening, Bryan, and thank you very much for your kind invitation.

BRYAN DAWE: Perhaps for the last time.

JOHN CLARKE: Are you leaving, Bryan? I'll be sorry to hear if you are.

BRYAN DAWE: It must be nearly time for bed, for you?

JOHN CLARKE: Well, it's a wearying time, Bryan, it's rather exhausting, but very stimulating and, of course, that's the nature of this job.

BRYAN DAWE: Do you think it will be close Saturday?

JOHN CLARKE: I do think it will be close, I think it will be very close indeed.

BRYAN DAWE: You've been running an enormous scare campaign this last week, haven't you?

JOHN CLARKE: No, we haven't, Bryan. What we've been doing is been running an information campaign, Bryan, getting our vital message out there. We've got policy initiatives, we want to put them in front of the Australian voters.

BRYAN DAWE: Prime Minister, you've been saying that if Kevin Rudd gets in the country will be run by unions. Who's it run by now?

JOHN CLARKE: That is a fact.

BRYAN DAWE: Who is it run by now?

JOHN CLARKE: The country?

BRYAN DAWE: Yes.

JOHN CLARKE: Big money and business and so on. You know where you are with them, Bryan. I mean that's why it's been going so well.

BRYAN DAWE: You've said it's not the time to entrust Kevin Rudd with the economy?

JOHN CLARKE: Very important point and thank you for raising it. This is not the time, Bryan, to try untested leadership with that vital element of the economy.

BRYAN DAWE: And you're tried and tested, are you?

JOHN CLARKE: Oh yes, you know where you are with us, Bryan.

BRYAN DAWE: Six interest rate rises in four years?

JOHN CLARKE: Bryan, it could only be worse under Labor, no matter how terrible we are, they will be worse.

BRYAN DAWE: You keep saying this.

JOHN CLARKE: This is the key point, this is not the time to take the risk.

BRYAN DAWE: You keep saying this, but what is the reason for that? I mean, you can't know this as a fact? When you were Treasurer, for example, interest rates were the highest...

JOHN CLARKE: Wooohhh, wooohhh, wooohhh (louder)

BRYAN DAWE: ... Mr Howard, what are you doing.

JOHN CLARKE: Boo! Boo!

BRYAN DAWE: Mr Hoard, on the question of policies, Mr Howard?

JOHN CLARKE: (makes strange noises and grunts)

BRYAN DAWE: Oh Mr Howard, stop it, this is just theatrics.

JOHN CLARKE: Julia Gillard, Julia Gillard, Julia Gillard, Julia Gillard, Julia Gillard, Julia Gillard, Julia Gillard, Julia Gillard, ...

BRYAN DAWE: What's your argument about Julia Gillard?

JOHN CLARKE: Julia Gillard.

BRYAN DAWE: Yes, I know. What's Julia Gillard?

JOHN CLARKE: She's got red hair. Have you ever seen her, Bryan, ever seen a photograph.

BRYAN DAWE: Yeah, she's got red hair. Have there been red haired people in Government before Mr Howard?

JOHN CLARKE: Wooohhh, wooohhh, wooohhh (louder)

BRYAN DAWE: Mr Howard, Mr Howard, if WorkChoices was any good, why would you promise not to keep bringing it in?

JOHN CLARKE: Look out, there's a man over there with a bolt through his head and his teeth are dripping blood and he's got an axe!

BRYAN DAWE: Mr Howard, it's Tony Abbott?

JOHN CLARKE: Get out of the way, Tony, behind Tony.

BRYAN DAWE: Where?

JOHN CLARKE: What's the theme music for 'Jaws'?

BRYAN DAWE: Oh. Da-dung, da-dung, da-dung... (theme music from the film 'Jaws')

JOHN CLARKE: Can I make a policy announcement?

BRYAN DAWE: No, no, we don't have time, Mr Howard. Shane, I don't think he's got anything to say.

JOHN CLARKE: Whoo!

BRYAN DAWE: Did you see the UN report on global warming? Mr Howard? What am I going to do?

JOHN CLARKE: I frightened myself then.

BRYAN DAWE: Thank you for joining us.

JOHN CLARKE: That's a quite a good policy.

The Morrison govt �no longer controls Parliament�: Bolt

quote:

Sky News host Andrew Bolt says the Liberal Party �no longer controls Parliament� after it suffered an historic defeat on the medivac bill in the House of Representatives on Tuesday. The Morrison Government has become the first government to lose a vote on legislation in the House of Representatives since 1929. Mr Bolt says the Liberal Party has had the loss 'rubbed in their face' by Labor.

All they can do is delay it, the optics of which will harm them far more than just quietly letting it through. Win/Win for Billy the Kid.

I think I've said something similar before but they're living in NewsCorp and 2GB land - everything they say or do makes perfect sense if you then go back to your office, flick on Sky and have Alan Jones verbally fellate you for an hour.

"Average Australians think..."

"Everyday Australians are angry at..."

These things are how all the papers and radio start their stories but they're not even close to true any more. And since paper and radio's influence has dropped so dramatically it makes the Libs look horrendously stupid and out of touch (they always were, but your average working class Aussie used to be much more easily conned into agreeing with them)
