From that link, one would think the top three are going to be Rudd, Shorten and Cream.
I just wonder then what order.?
Well no doubt there will be some activity when the by - election is finalized.

I think it will be Rudd if the AFP find the leaked explicit video has come from Gillard's office. Her past history shows she is well and truly capable of it.

If she is found out, she may well finish up like 'humpty dumpty'.

The AFP state they are confident of tracking down the source of origin.

Mark Arbib has made a statement that Julia Gillard will cease to be the PM of Australia by the end
of September.

That is interesting coming from Arbib.

Do you think it will be as a result of the AFP probe?

Do you think she will be axed or resign?

I honestly cannot answer question 1.
I am pretty sure I heard it on the radio.
The radio announcer did not say what was behind it.
I was on a tractor hauling a bin of sugar cane at 37klm/hr, and I know when i heard it the tractor
got a bit of a wobble up.:D
I can answer question 2. She will be axed, or forced to resign. Basically the same thing. However with
a resignation she could explain why and where her future lies.(more honorable):rolleyes:

joea. when I heard it you could have knocked me over with a feather.
 
For this government, running the country comes a distant fourth.

But the caucus member said it was hard to see how a leadership transition would occur due to three factors.

The first was the Prime Minister had expended too much personal capital to stay in the post and would not voluntarily stand down.

The second, the source said, was many backbenchers knew a change of leadership would mean an early election and with it, unemployment.

Many would prefer to draw their salary for another 12 months before the inevitable loss of their seats, the MP said.

The third factor was that the protective “syndicate” Ms Gillard had built around her were unprepared to make a ruthless but necessary political decision.

Tragic (for the nation), but that article is on the mark Dr Zacchary.

This is what the party of Curtin, Chifley, Bowen and Hawke, and (once) a journalist called Bolt, and (once) a poster called Logique, has become. The plaything of the Crown St (Sydney)/Lygon St (Melb) young, tenured and white collared and (all too often) scatterbrained. And the Union bosses to keep them in line.

We can only hope that the increasing chaos within the Gillard government will soon bring it down.

Labor senator Mark Bishop's efforts today, first with The Australian and second with the shutters up (below) makes me think there's serious movement behind the scenes.

One by one, Kevin's supporters are clearly beating the war drums.

Geez Doc, we have all been saying it for months but Gillard just seems to be glued on and it must be bloody good glue at that.
I must confess though it has to be getting close by the day.
 
Her political corpse appears glued on because their only other option is the corpse they executed and have since buried.
 
noco said:
Doc, Gillard is a walking corpse that just will not lie down as Janet Alrechtsen writes.

They rarely do.

It's made worse this time beacuse Labor's alternative is limited to resurrecting Kev's charred remains from the grave.

If they can hang on, they'll replace Julia with a different face close to the election to salvage as much furniture as they can.
 
I was just thinking today how F**ked the labor party is as an organisation when you look back at recent history its obvious that their incestous relationship with the unions have made them yesterday's political party.
BTW I'm not unhappy about this situation however we do always need a competent opposition IMO.

When I think about it the rot started when they put up Latham as a leader ( I think we dodged a massive bullet there):eek::eek:
And look at their leaders since then................. say no more.

Although I don't agree with their politics I thought Crean and Beazley were at least "decent people":2twocents

Yes we certainly missed a bullet with Latham, luckily we got Rudd (the cannon ball) instead. :D

It looks like the truth about the Gillard/Wilson affair is about to be revealed if Ralph Blewitt is given immunity against criminal charges.

The problem may be the influence Gillard has on the AFP to squash the investigation.

This will be HUGE, a mate of mine has connections with first hand knowledge of what she was up to and it's devastating stuff.

The truth is in here somewhere -

Here lies more on the Gillard/ Wilson saga. It is obvious Blewitt has a wealth of information buried in his memory.

I hope he is now under police protection, if not I would have doubts about his safety.
