What a war cry from Bolt who lost his privileged status and with it became the rapidly shrinking man. Bolt MIA is sending messages of " keep up the good fight" to those already mortally wounded Eric being one of them.
Andrew Bolt amplifies the reason not only why we removed Tony Abbott but much more why so many of his Cabinet weren't really up to the mark. Eric Abetz a stand out with his abortion/ cancer link and his cover up of Damien Mantach's spending in Tas and not revealing it to his fellow Libs in the Vic branch. Tasmanian Senator Eric Abetz's power base eroded in ...
Eric has gone he might be back but only in Andrew Bolt's new Conservative Party if of course it ever becomes more than the Walter Mitty fantasy of a bleacher belcher.
What you won't hear from Bolt
What Abbott should do now show that " Charisma " that Bolt so often says is hidden.
"
Why is Scott Morrison saying one thing on penalty rates and everyone else the other?"
This seems a strange question coming from a non collectivist like Bolt who believes the Liberal Party is one of individuals. Morrison is the new Treasurer and what he has said no policy has been formulated as yet or even debated in Cabinet. Bolt might echo what Abbott preferred he might even insist it was a captain's call but as yet it's not government policy and all is under review. What a wise approach one often not seen conducted under the Abbott leadership and his PMO structure. Very ALP in approach hey Bolt.
Apart from that everyone is allowed to have an opinion but
"at the end of the day, it is the Government that does not set
penalty rates, the Fair Work Commission is not the Government, it’s an
independent tribunal"
Appropriately dubbed the “new Mr Coal” by an excited Andrew Bolt on
his weekly Channel Ten slot yesterday, the new Minister for Resources,
Energy and Northern Australia, Josh Frydenberg averaged a lie every 3.5
minutes as he raked over the Abbott Government’s legacy on climate
change and coal.
"
Ah, the politics of hurt feelings. Who can’t you silence on those grounds?" "censorship, at least for their critics. " Bolt's talking about the Greens. He might as well be talking about himself. Further down he literally demands Malcolm Turnbull to censor Tony Jones and the ABC for what "hurt feeling".
" Bolt's misguided complaint
against the ABC and Tony Jones sounds more like an order than just a
grievance an order by way of a threat to Malcolm Turnbull that if he
doesn't act Bolt will start his own party."
Link Mark Steyn Steyn on line. Bolt's ultra conservative soul brother no just someone's elses ideas to use. The Washington Post, USA today
Bolt seems to use the Goebellian rule repeat repeat repeat somebody might believe you. Bolt fails to say the number Germany is happy to take is 800,000 or 1% of their population. The 522,000 that have arrived so far in Europe amounts to 0.7% Not exactly the "invasion" Bolt likes to cry about. Rather than generalizing dwelling on the humanitarian positives of this mass migration and considering it's possible benefits for everybody Bolt selectively prefers to select individual problems that have occurred. He highlights the individual right wing protests rather than those welcoming the refugees, the fights rather than the helping hands and the despair rather than the relief.
Bolt and Steyn look for gang and criminal incidents to prove and generalize for 522,000 people. Bolt looks for clashes to justifying the need to stop the migration. It's a bit like pointing out that the AFL finals need to be stopped or at least the indigenous fans banned because one drunk hit an un-uniformed police woman in the face. Bolt Logic is fundamentally flawed. By the way yes the movement of such numbers does create problems but mass migration is occurring in many places other than Europe something Andrew Bolt ignores and which is a worldwide phenomenon no just EU .Stop Looking Just at Europe. There’s a Migration Crisis Everywhere.
Sorry it was Andrew Bolt whose claim to fame was he could start a neo Conservative Party for all those disaffected conservative Liberals the 1000's in fact he says he knows left the Liberal Party or want to leave it and have nowhere to go. He brought it up on The Project. He could have a new party in place with the snap of his fingers.
We to have in mind his party. It would indeed be anti the UN and the UNHCR. Also strictly against social welfare as those on welfare are by and large bludgers to be blamed for their condition. They need be forced to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. If one actually takes into account Bolt's anti Muslim, anti- indigenous sentiments and his approach to the Middle East an image emerges as very similar to Golden Dawn. After all would he stop members of the PDL and Reclaim Australia joining his party after all the championing he does for them?
Even Bolt's misguided complaint against the ABC and Tony Jones sounds more like an order than just a grievance an order by way of a threat to Malcolm Turnbull that if he doesn't act Bolt might just start his own party.
Bolt, Devine and ultra conservatives one and all believe in an outdated and outmoded sociological concept of "the culture of poverty" which excuses and isolates the poor from the rest of society abrogating the rich from any involvement in having created the condition and maintenance of that poverty. In simple terms it's blaming the victims. Not just as individuals but rather as a collective whose culture and beliefs are to blame. Bolt and Devine can then comfortably excuse themselves from any blame, responsibility or need to change their behaviours in order to solve the issue if it's regarded as a problem. They simply refuse their historic participation in the creation of poverty. It offers one way to explain why poverty exists despite the failings of anti-poverty programs.
Believing in the idea of a culture of poverty does not describe the poor so much as it serves the interests of the rich. It supports intervention and policies that are fundamentally political such as removal of children and the belief that raising the income of the poor would not change
their life styles choices or values, but merely funnel greater sums of money
into bottomless, self-destructing pits."
MYTH: Poor people are unmotivated and have weak work ethics.
The poor actually work harder and longer than the wealthy The shortage of jobs has them working 2-3 to survive and it's increasingly common to today's generation.
MYTH: Poor parents are uninvolved in their children's learning, largely because they do not value education.
Poor parents have the same attitude to education but are forced to work and can't participateas much as the wealthy.
MYTH: Poor people tend to abuse drugs and alcohol and are more domestically violent. The greatest of all myths posited by Devine and Bolt
The Reality: Poor people are no more likely than their wealthier
counterparts to abuse alcohol or drugs. Although drug sales are more
visible in poor neighbourhoods, drug use is equally distributed across poor, middle class, and wealthy communities. In other words, considering alcohol and illicit drugs together, wealthy people are more likely than poor people to be users and abusers. Just consider the economics.
This stereotypical thinking leads Bolt and Devine to have and promote low expectations of low income people. What people in poverty do have in common: inequitable access to basic human rights. They lack access to health care, living-wage jobs, safe and affordable
housing, clean air and water, and so on conditions that
limit their abilities to achieve to their full potential.
Listen to Devine My sin was to point out the incontrovertible truth about domestic violence, that it is overwhelmingly concentrated in dysfunctional remote indigenous communities and public housing estates.
All Devine is reinforcing the idea that the visibility of domestic abuse is proof that a culture exists and the reinforcement of the stereotyping the disadvantaged as undeserving.

Not only does Tony Abbott own the intellectual property over everything government but Andrew Bolt seems to believe any genuine change of government ought to be done from a clean slate if not the proof of treachery is self evident. However he also believes that if anything new does occur that also is evidence that treachery had occurred and disrespect shown Abbott. Frankly it's all yes but no logic and a Tony centric world Bolt lives in but Australians don't.
"Julie Bishop will today announce Australia’s candidacy for a seat on the UN Security Council."
This is Tony's cries Bolt but he was resistant to the idea when Rudd owned it. Bolt's not easy to follow that's for sure when the idea is put forward by Bishop she's declared a thief. Imagine what he said when he found out Gillian Triggs supports it as well.
" it is churlish for Bishop to announce this while denying Tony Abbott proper credit and apparently leaking yet again to his discredit:" Andrew Bolt
" Ms Bishop, who also recommended Australia declare its candidacy for a seat on the UN Human Rights Council from 2018-20."
" Wait! The Human Rights Council? Bishop plans to give that clown show credibility by adding Australia to its members?"Andrew Bolt
" The Human Rights Council should be opposed and shamed, not joined and legitimised." Andrew Bolt
It apparently needs destroying not improving
Rather than having a United Nations Andrew Bolt fervently believes in what might be regarded as the Council of Divided Nations very much a bunch that prefers the diplomacy of back turning, isolation and battle.
"What happens when you join this circus of hypocrites? You lower yourself to their standards and promote what you should oppose:
"Andrew Bolt
Does Andrew Bolt sound more facist or democratic? Does he sound more like an isolationist or internationalist? Does he sound more Nth Korean than he does Australian? It certainly makes Australia sound like a roaring mouse that needs a far far greater defence budget.

What you don't hear from Andrew Bolt when a 24 year old commits suicide
"We also deport people, but not in the way the Australians are talking about," John Keys NZ PM"Mr Key said some of them had spent almost their entire lives in Australia, having gone there when they were very young."
"Junior Togatuki in a high-security detention centre while he was awaiting deportation."
"The
23-year-old, who left New Zealand at age four, had served his sentence
for robbery and assault, and authorities say he took his own life."
Australia has been noted for deporting a man back to Serbia who had come here as a child and no longer had a family or knew anybody there. He was suspected of having a mental illness. How irresponsible is that of any government?Man to be deported after 40 years in Australia | Politics Forum .o
