The "C-Bomb" Pyne launches a private book. He is obviously not busy enough in parliament.
So mean spirited. All sorts of busy high profile people write books; politicians of every colour, CEOs, sportsmen and women, housewives even. Dammit he has a right to some spare time and he has a right to write a book in it ffs!

There is no surprise the ABC News page has opened up yet another Bronwyn Bishop hate fest comments page .
However when the Socialist Uni hire a mob smash public property and create a public nuisance during Pyne's book launch the silence from the ABC is deafening .
Yep, seen it through a number of colleges, helps to get it off thier chest, but just rubbish at the opp shops in 12 months, better to lean against wisdom such as yours
The fact that Pyne's tome is unlikely to generate any lasting interest is irrelevant ( I won't be buying it, even at op shop prices).
The greater point is that in our liberal (in the true politico - ideological sense not in the Liberal political party sense) society, Pyne has a right to write a book, present the same for publication and for the publisher to exercise their mercantile judgement to publish it.
That supposedly liberal (in the true politico - ideological sense not in the Liberal political party sense) ideologues here would seek to construe that he has no right to do so as a/a sitting parliamentarian and b/as someone who disagrees with their personal ideology , exposes their totalitarian motive.
Plod, Quacker, it is against the likes of you I would readily take up arms....
a/ to preserve my right to an opinion, and
b/ ironically to preserve your right to an opinion.
I am truly astonished and appalled at the repugnancy of your views.
Do not deny his rights at all.
Just thinking of the hot air content.
Do you really believe the current pollies (all sides) are trying to keep us tracking. No ideas for productivity.

You are in the wrong country Wayne (we are not the USA), taking up arms to protect yourself from people with different views.
All I said was Pyne should write his book in his own time not at the taxpayer's expense.
Lighten up a bit.

You think the taxpayer owns 100% of his time. We don't.
And while the left (or the right) proposes drastic curtails on reasonable liberties, I will never "lighten up"
You need to get fired up about something with a bit more substance than protecting that weasel Pyne and his god given right to write a book on taxpayer time.
"Consistent with the past, Mr Rudd has no substantive comment to make on Ms Gillard's latest contribution to Australian fiction," Mr Rudd said through a spokesman.
It was Mr Swan, for example, who triggered a carpet bombing of Mr Rudd's reputation by senior ministers before the 2012 leadership challenge to Julia Gillard when he said the then-foreign minister ''does not hold any Labor values''.

We are told and witness very long sessions of parliament and extensive travel costs in between to attend call of duty meetings. Add in the spin doctoring + family time.... Chris Pyne would hardly have the"me time" to write a book.
Chris supported Workchoices so he could hardly excuse himself not working 24/7 for the man.
Interesting outcome to the audit of the ABC, by the ABC.

Very telling comments from the review:
* hosts allowing their apparent personal views to shine through in their journalism
* an over-emphasis on the politics of the issue rather than its policy implications
* exaggerated language, including of a government "crisis"
* a lack of scrutiny of Labor and the Greens' policy alternatives

At a local (WA) level, the comments about ABC radio 720 mornings host Geoff Hutchinson are unsurprising to me.Interesting outcome to the audit of the ABC, by the ABC.
