I listened to Rudd's departure speech. He was determined to punish us with a long boring speech on all the things he has done for us. But like Hawke and Fraser he ended up blubbering.
 
She is well practiced in the art of back stabbing. Her great great ancestor was commonly known as Uncle Brutus.

I'm listening to PM Gillards acceptance speech. The following are relevant to the proposed new mining tax:

- She has committed to the budget being in surplus by 2013 (see note below)

- She re-affirms that the Australian people are entitled to a fairer share of mining profits

- She has said to the mining industry: that the goverment will cancel it's mining tax advertising if the mining industry will cancel it's ads.

- she has said that the government will afterwards negotiate again with the mining industry about the proposed tax

If people will recall, the return to budget surplus by 2013 was on the assumption of a mining tax (RSPT, or "future tax" spin term) in the recent Rudd govt budget. So there's the new message to the miners - the Gillard govt will negotiate, but they firmly intend to have the mining tax, and indeed it is already in the budget!
 
Last month Julia Gillard said there was more chance she would line up at full forward for the Western Bulldogs than topple Kevin Rudd. Wonder how many goals she is going to kick next week? Is Jason Akermanis safe in his job as the goal sneak?

I agree. I thought it was pathetic and self-serving.

Instead of the epitaph he dreamed up that he would like us to remember him by, I think the four word sentence "coward to the end" would have been more apt.

He was a coward by his own definition when dealing with the ETS. His last statement as prime minister was to say he would stand for re-election as PM in spite of not having factional support and within 12 hours he changes his mind and doesn't even contest.
 
Now we know. Julia has made our decision at the next election very easy. She told us that the Labor party stands for everything that is fair and good and caring.

And she told us that an evil Abbott government will reimpose work choices, and cut education and health services.
 

I am far from a Rudd supporter, but disagree with you.

To fight in the face of obvious defeat would have been more stupid and self-serving than cowardly.

In the interests of the Labor party, he resigned. His last act was a noble one.
 
Yikes!!

So I suppose you are perfect trainspotter.

Some of the sexist, homophobe and hate posts I find very interesting. Disgusting no, it is what we are coming to expect from the intelligencia for the self.

Gillard though is above that.
 

Julia's rewritten one of the words.

"We just have to face it, this time we're through.
Breaking up is never easy I know,
But you have to go, knowing me knowing you it's the best we can do."

I don't see his decision not to contest by a vote as being in the interests of the Labor Party at all. Rather, I think it would have been made clear to him that the numbers supporting him were so pathetically small that it would have simply increased his humiliation to have this exposed publicly.

For all that I totally loathed the man, I had a few moments of feeling sorry for him. To be so publicly smashed by the Labor Party Machine, and for someone of such excessive pride and hubris, his swift downfall must be a horrific experience.
 

Abbott has questioned her on this in Question Time (3 times) & basically her replies are about the same as what you'd expect from Rudd .... no direct answer ... just an opportunity for spin.......yawnn....

Just repeating what the media said this morning about the barren fruit bowl jibe. It was in reference to the barren fruit bowl on her kitchen table in her flat. She said she was not there long enough to have fruit in it. Hard nosed when it comes to negotiations as well I believe. Just ask the Unions. Calling it like it is.

And yes I am perfect in every way ... thank you for asking ! You on the other hand are special.
 
Well there you have it.... Federal labor has more or less copied state and done a Keneally. Will be interesting to see how things will go.
