Leaders on the extreme right of politics seem to have the same human
characteristics of nastiness, offensiveness, spite, resentment, malice,
contempt and bad manners. Abbott, like others on the conservative right,
seemed to fit into a slot in history. One that was utterly rejected by
his colleagues who, in due course, sacked him. He was subsequently

Rudd told Acma that claims broadcast on Sky included:
“Covid-19 is not a pandemic; the vaccinated are more likely to die than
the unvaccinated; hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin are proven, safe
treatments for Covid-19; the medical profession are concealing these
treatments from the public for political purposes and face masks do not
inhibit the spread of Covid-19.” “While it is unrealistic to believe
that we can ever stamp out misinformation, especially in the age of
