Why is Abbott hurting Turnbull? Note his praise of Dutton

Many journalists claim Tony Abbott is just hurting himself by telling the LIberals to change policies or die. But they still don't get three things: the Liberals really are dying under Malcolm Turnbull; Abbott's plan is sound; and that in explaining that plan he praised ambitious Immigration Minister Peter Dutton, a fellow conservative. Listen.

Bolt's repeating himself as he has done for years. Repetitively supplying Abbott with a CV. The problem the CV is coming from the Australia's most renowned fake news provider little Andy Bolt Murdoch's tool and Tony's suck. Tony Abbott is the best sales person the Liberal's have according to Bolt. Cast your self back 3 years and listen to the echos of Bolt's apologies promising Abbott had changed. Every week another promise until it became so embarrassing Bolt shut up and began directing his attention elsewhere. You just can't keep promising Abbott had changed and have the public believe you. Apparently Bolt thinks he can. Here we see him going up and down like the Abbott of old the yo yo with little boy Bolt following close behind... it's pathetic and Liberals stood up and said so.

ABC admits: Castro not "romantic" and loved by all

It has taken three months, but the ABC finally admits that the communist dictator Fidel Castro was not a "romantic revolutionary" and a "moving speaker who had the affection of his people.” The Guardian detects my sinister hand in the rewriting of the ABC's hagiography.

  Nobody suggested that Castro was loved bu all but he was certainly loved by the majority of his people. To suggest otherwise is to show ignorance. Bolt really never mentions the fact that there's more homelessness in the US. Cuba has universal health and education all accomplished under a 52 year trade ban imposed by America. Given the conditions Cubans were forced to live under  no thanks to  the USA Cubans have a lot to be admired for.
"Why did it take the ABC three months to figure what should have taken three seconds to realise: that there's nothing romantic about a hardline dictator that has killed and jailed opponents, and driven his country almost into the ground?" Bolt Fake News absolutely The USA has the most jailed citizens in the world and its called a democracy. Israel has killed and jailed more of it's citizens and those in occupied territories since it's creation and it's regarded by Bolt as an outstanding Democracy. Fidel Castro didn't drive his country into the ground America's embargo did. Donald Trump's 3 bankruptcies however left a lot of workers and subcontractors seriously out of pocket. Do we here a peep from Bolt on that issue? When American Presidents die do citizens come out in the streets in the numbers that Cubans did to mourn. No they don't The Journalism of Terror Regarding Cuba - Havana Times.org

 

 

 

Wilders agent arrested. Moroccan "mole"

Was Geert Wilders set up by Holland's security service?: "A Moroccan-origin Dutch police officer working on Mr Wilder’s security detail was arrested ... for allegedly leaking police information about his assignment." The leaks were reportedly to Dutch-Moroccan criminals.  

Bolt's source Breitbart which has the lowest ranking reliability of truth of any news source. once run  and edited by Steve Bannon  and also the infamous Milo Yiannopoulos. One wonders why Bolt would favor Breitbart at all with it's track record for fake news.

"Part of the concern about the alleged “mole” in Mr Wilders’ security details may relate to the Moroccan origin of the detained officer. Wilders has been a particularly vocal critic of mass migration and of Moroccan immigrants in particular."

" As he kicked off his election campaign earlier this month, Mr Wilders called Moroccan migrant criminals “scum”."Breitbart

Given all is remains alleged and considering Wilders past record for self promotion one wonders whether this is simply an attention grabbing stunt to make Wilders appear a victim

"The justice minister, Stef Blok, insisted Dutch politicians could “campaign safely on Dutch streets” and said the alleged leak had endangered no one. The security officer, identified as Faris K, was released on Thursday but suspended pending the investigation."Guardian

 

Shorten whacked with penalty rates

Bill Shorten slips up badly: "Shorten’s assault on the Fair Work Commission’s historic decis­ion to cut the Sunday and public holiday penalty rates ... has been undermined by revelations that a worker he paraded as a victim of the far-reaching ruling would not be affected." Which highlights a sad truth: there is much less to this cut than claimed.  

  What can one say learn to spell Andrew Bolt learn to spell you are meant to be a professional.

" cutting Sunday penalties in must cases from 150 per cent to 125, and leaving Saturday penalties untouched." Bolt

 

 

 

Abbott issues manifesto, Turnbull lashes out

Tony Abbott issues his manifesto: "We’ll cut the RET, to help with your power bills; we’ll cut immigration to make housing more affordable; we’ll scrap the Human Rights Commission to stop official bullying; we’ll stop all new spending to end ripping off our grandkids; and we’ll reform the Senate ...” Malcolm Turnbull and the Greens are livid.

"I'm not going to be provoked... The fact is - my government has a record of achievement. Over the last six months or so, since the election, we have achieved more with fewer seats than we did in the previous three years." Turnbull

 

 

Peter Dutton surges after leadership pitch

I asked Immigration Minister Peter Dutton on The Bolt Report this week to explain his leadership appeal. He cited three things: he was loyal, plain-speaking and conservative, all things Julie Bishop is not. Bishop today denied that, but Dutton has since soared past her in Sportsbet as favorite to replace Turnbull.

 Did Bolt's ratings surge? We will never know I hardly think Bolt interested in promoting Peter Dutton. He remains intent however on boosting Abbott.

Warming fail: dud desal plant needs diesel

 Another farcical global warming fail. Victoria's then Labor Government claimed global warming would dry the rains and drain our dams. So it built a desalination plant that it said would be powered by wind farms. But the rains returned, the dams filled, the plant is mothballed and now 30 diesel generators have been ordered to power it.

Andrew Bolt has superannuation and invests in the future it seems if Labor does the same it's a 'farce'. Has Bolt invested his savings into fossil fuels? We will never know because like Trump and his tax return that's strictly private. The investment of desal plants isn't considered a farce by any of the worlds population centers given that water quality standards aren't a certainty. Water shortage isn't the only consideration to keep in mind pollution is just as great a concern.
 According to Bolt the dams aren't draining. Water storages for Australian cities: 69.5 per cent
Water storages for Melbourne: 67.8 per cent Nobody but Bolt laughs at god in a hospital and I'm sure back up systems there aren't to be laughed at. In fact backup systems in any sector private or state shouldn't be mocked. So why the chortle when a Labor government is concerned? Does Bolt laugh at the upgrading of the CFA? Investment in defense isn't a laughing matter for conservatives despite the fact that the liklihood of the hardware being used is remote. So it seems Bolt is stirring for stirring sake only. Nobody said transition to renewable meant switching off fossil fuels completely either. The do or don't approach being adopted by Bolt is what's ridiculous because should circumstances arise where a desal plant was necessary Bolt no doubt would be singing another tune. It's strange he seems focused only on Victoria and not the country

Abbott to Turnbull: move into Kirribilli, crack down on spending

Tony Abbott on The Bolt Report tonight gave Malcolm Turnbull very personal advice: move into Kirribilli House and save taxpayers $3 million a year, be tougher on public service pay, scrap your renewable energy target, ditch your irrational clean-coal plans, and stop this "drift to defeat". Watch, because the gloves are off.

 

Not a word about Australia only about winning and losing and the assumption the winner is the best . How Trump. America is asking just that question. Did we win? Seemingly grave doubts are springing up every where. Heaven help us all if Tony Abbott claws his way back which was always his ambition. Apparently his book of other peoples writings is a stepping stone.

 

 

Another Q&A stitch-up

 As I said: why would a conservative go on the ABC's Q&A to be stitched up - patronised by the host, sneered at by a stacked panel and jeered by a carefully curated audience? And then there's this: yet another political activist in the crowd presented as some battler just asking a question.

Remember when Andrew Bolt promised to have James Matheson back because they'd "run out of time" it never happened did it. Matheson was running rings about Bolt and the producers had Bolt shut him down. Now it appears you can't be on a pension and have a political point of view be found in an audience to ask a question of any kind without being called an anti- conservative stooge. The energy put into the production of the Bolt Report is essentially directed to ensure Andrew Bolt looks the part not is the part of a balanced and informative host of a what and advertorial. Thanks to the ABC.s Insiders, The Drum, Q&A, we are capable of seeing how panels might be structured to provide varying points of view and not just one. As for Brandis well George is like Dutton their own worst enemies.
