ABBOTT VS TURNBULL: THE FIGHT FOR VALUES

My editorial on The Bolt Report - Malcolm Turnbull struggles to tidy up the mess caused by Christopher Pyne, but his leadership slides deeper into the mud. Then up jumps Tony Abbott to explain exactly how the Liberals could win.

As I said  and have been saying time has been running out and News Corp was about to drag  Tony Abbott out from the slime of his past and Andrew Bolt is about to tell us he's a changed and renewed man. He's repentant and time has come again to be winners and Caesar Tony needs to be shouldered once again. Thproblem is Abbott hasn't changed. Bolt Hasn't changed and more to the point Rupert Murdoch the USA and UK booster hasn't changed. In other words Australia has stood still because Abbott was gone and we stopped going backwards. We stood still for some time until Turnbull won the election in the meantime the Conservatives in the media didn't. It's been a serial howl and whine ever scince. However we have begun to progress. We know the NBN is a fuck up, We Know the debt  ceiling created by Abbott has been blown, We know the Abbott's cuts to Education has now placed us 39th in the world of 40 OECD counties, We know Abbott banned and tried to cut funds to and information from the ABC,  He ravaged Science in AustraliaHe savaged the unions and encouraged the casualisation of Labor He deregulated business controls and criminalized the opportunities of corporations while removing the privacy we once had. We had a paranoid Captain secluded in his own PMO because he was a reflection of what he was and believed every body was the same as he was.

What a relief when Turnbull turned up not a success but a relief and that's the begginning of opportunity ignored. But despite Abbott telling us he was only a loyal backbencher representing Warringa he was nothing but another Rudd. No he was even more he was the tail trying to wag the dog. Rudd was carried on the electorates shoulders. Abbott never will be because he 's always been seen as the snake. Destroy the Liberals he will. Bernardi realised and that the was a liar without ethics. Pauline Hanson was thrown in jail by a determined Abbott wanting her votes. He publicly kissed her and said sorry he'd changed. Andrew Bolt used to echo that promise until he's repeated it so often he stopped and spent a 3month silence on Tony until he was voted out democratically by his own party. Fuck who'd have tought it Rupert's man in the top job was dumped. What we see know is not Bolt's inner knowledge of what Abbott was about to do but what Murdoch had told his organization what they had to do. Yes and Abbott the marionette has always maintained his readiness.

This isn't a fight for values this is a dirty battle for power within a team that for the moment hasn't any value for values because Abbott's greed has always been Satan among their midst. Bob Santa Maria is laughing.

 

PYNE'S BOAST: THE PLAN REVEALED

Christopher Pyne bragged to his Left-wing faction that we might get same-sex marriage "sooner than everyone thinks". Sure enough: "Two Liberal MPs have been secretly working on a plan to legalise same-sex marriage in Australia as soon as August, with a draft copy of the laws well advanced." Never mind that this breaks an election promise.

Bolt it seems is forced to read the opposition papers to get the news of the day that a Private Members Bill was to be put forward. What an embarrassment for Bolt he and Abbott had tried to make out it was a double cross by Turnbull. Well, let's call that for what it is WRONG!!

The Liberal Party is a Broad Church or is it an extremely narrow one as Abbott and Bolt would have that the TEAM is everything and screw Individual Conscience, Screw Principles, and Screw your Electorate. For heaven sake, politicians aren't representatives they are front runners the electorate has chosen to follow like sheep. Well, Bolt what can I say but WRONG again.

 

 

 

CAN PYNE PLEASE DEFINE "WINNER"?

Turnbull loyalist Christopher Pyne gloats to his faction: "We are in the winner's circle, friends." Can Pyne define "winner"?: "The Coalition would lose 20 seats ... if the election matched the state-by-state swings shown in the quarterly Newspoll survey published this week." 

 Anti- Populist Poll lover Andrew Bolt bets his Y-fronts on Newspoll owned and bought exclusively by the News Corp for the Australian. When Ipsos says the gap between parties is 4 points it's almost guaranteed Newspoll is reporting 6. Hello, we are more than 18 months out from an election since when have the parties shown all their cards.

What Andrew Bolt is really doing is covering for Abbott's bullshit on 2GB yesterday when the pre-election "No Cuts" Abbott declared it a fundamental breach of faith to break a pre-election commitment. When Abbott new Pyne was a Turnbull man but was required to reward him for the singular effort Pyne did to help Abbott become PM. You see Bolt believes if you ever worked for Labor and then said you were a conservative you could never ever be trusted again. Well, folks lets remind ourselves that that's exactly what Bolt did. Bolt with his own words has hung himself on his own petard and I believe him in this case.

    Is same-sex marriage actually good policy? According to the people for whom Conservatives like any other politician works  the polls to which Bolt is so attentive say a resounding YES

    Is breaking an election promise good policy? The question is irrelevant Turnbull isn't breaking a promise it's a Private Bill

    Is risking a split in the party a good policy? Yes because the disloyalty is that the tail is trying to wag the dog and the tail needs to be docked

    Is denying the public a vote on such a big issue good policy? The question is insane the Polls say Yes and the Public are represented by their Members

    Is copying Labor a good policy? It's not a Labor Policy it's Human Rights Issue. What a stupid question

    Is devoting so much time and energy on this issue good policy? No, it should have been put to a conscience vote long ago. Why is Australia such a global backwater when it comes to Human Rights?

    Will this actually help the Government win the next election?Absolutely not.  However, it's why the Conservatives have picked the wrong battle and the moderates will be rewarded either way on this issue. One should as how this is an issue at all? We are reminded of Mr. Nope Nope Nope  Tony Abbott. Hardly a positive memory for someone who wants to come back. Will we here Bolt's mantra "but he's changed really changed"?

CAN PYNE PLEASE DEFINE "WINNER"?

Turnbull loyalist Christopher Pyne gloats to his faction: "We are in the winner's circle, friends." Can Pyne define "winner"?: "The Coalition would lose 20 seats ... if the election matched the state-by-state swings shown in the quarterly Newspoll survey published this week." UPDATE: Pyne is actually losing in South Australia.

Bolt the anti-populist political crusader turns to Newspoll and polls to show what how unpopular Turnbull is? We already know that!! However Tony Abbott is even less popular so according to Bolt, we should bring him back. However, Bolt uses the Popularity poll to prove his point which seems a total contradiction to his anti-populist stance. It's a mind-blowing carousel of contradictions particularly when the is no election in the foreseeable future only a traitorous coup where the tail is running short of time to be the dog.

 

COAL UP, GREENS DOWN

The Greens predicted: "The world is moving away from coal." The reality: "The world's biggest coal users — China, the United States and India — have boosted coal mining in 2017... Production through May is up by at least 121 million tons, or 6 percent."

What Bolt didn't tell you India and China have reduced Coal Imports and of course the major change is the USA as Trump is in power and the Koch Bros are celebrating. However what Bolt doesn't tell you is there is no rapid growth in investment in coal and the stock prices aren't soaring. This celebration is Bolt's stiff upper lip believe me if he were a coal investor he's limp everywhere else. The transition away from coal remains a world target it's FAILING.

As I said earlier bumper harvest in South Africa doesn't explain the worst droughts experienced in other parts of Africa resulting in catastrophic famine. What we see here is Bolt's privileged media platform space in operation only reporting what's favorable to his argument leaving out the numbers in refugee camps worldwide due largely to Climate Change. The civil war in Syria began due to Climate triggers and camps in Africa are due to famine. I'm sure Bolt's garden is in good shape and so the world has nothing to be concerned about.


 

CHRISTIANITY FALLS AS IMMIGRATION CHANGES US

The latest Census shows we have as many Buddhists as Muslims. So why do we never worry about Buddhist terrorists, extremist, hate preachers and bikie gangs? Meanwhile Christianity falls as rival faiths soar, largely through immigration. Is this healthy?

 So the massive drop in Christianity has absolutely nothing to do with the 2% of those practicing Islam or Buddhism. The question remains if the 54% of Australians do identify with Christianity and actually practice it or did they just tick the census box simply because of the way the question was framed.? So much for Bolt's certainty that we are a Christian Nation with Christian values or that immigration is the reason for the lapse in Christianity. He is the example of a generation that turned it's back on the church it's beliefs and values. The single Australian values as supported by our Constitution one is the freedom of faith something Andrew Bolt rails against every day. So immigration and religion should be of no consequence and our institutions are meant to support and reflect that freedom.
 Australia a Secular Parliamentary Democracy and is the only one in the world that doesn't have a Bill of Human Rights enshrined in it's Constitution. It's why we as a country should be ashamed of ourselves at the proliferation of laws that don't guarantee the equal rights of our citizens. If we did there wouldn't be the overkill on terror laws and surveillance of some citizens. Same sex marriage, equal pay for women would have been passed long ago and the long-term detention of children and asylum seekers not allowed. The ultra- conservatives wouldn't have the desperate want to throw out the AHRC which is, in fact, an independent statutory body that protects us.
Bolt talks of the Magna Carta as the foundation of our freedoms but doesn't support the separation of Church and State nor the Law and State fundamentals. That demand protection. Conservatives, in fact, want to change our electoral system. Bolt certainly doesn't believe in the privacy of the ballot box naming and shaming those he chooses to call left-wingers and Islamists in denial of their right to be whatever they want. He prefers the government have far more sway on what religions are represented foremost in our schools and that even Maths and science be regarded as little more than Humanities and Arts subjects rather than given special place. Bi-lingual education is dangerous yet no doubt he's bi-lingual. Strange all these demands fro someone who holds 2 passports yet claims to be a staunch Nationalist.

Politicians you can't be proud of, Except Morrison who looks utterly embarassed
