Listen to the interview between the ABC National Radio host and Greg Sheridan at the bottom of the page.

The host initially tried to paint David Patch as a witness to the alleged punching (the wall) incident.

Greg Sheridan: David Patch didn't..., and he said he witnessed nothing.
ABC host: No, no, that's not the case.
Greg Sheridan: No. It is the case, he witnessed nothing.

What is Cantax ?

It can't be the carbon tax.

That's a TWBNCTUAGIL-tax.

It's like everything Labor does. A complicated mess.

I think IFocus is having a swipe at Newman...

Probably trying to make him look worse than Gillard's carbon tax lie. Most thinking people probably realise that labor haven't done well in managing Qld and that superfluous positions need to be removed.

Maybe IFocus thinks that all unemployed people should be on public service wages while doodling or watching TV. That would help his unemployment figures...but hang on - isn't that what Bligh was doing? How come so many of her "friends have lost their jobs? Did she create jobs for her mates?
 
Interesting concept of a witness, especially from a barrister.

Both sides are being quite silly about this historical event.
Greg Sheridan, who is usually calm and sensible, was quite the opposite - almost hysterical - in his interview with ABC Radio (link above).

They should all move on. The only winner here is the odious David Marr who will be regarding the storm he has created with much pleasure.
 
If this Abbott issue back in his uni days is the best that the Labor 'dirt team' can come up with, they are getting payed too much money.
When you consider the Thomson and Gillard issues, labor must be wondering if their money was well spent, if all the can come up with is dubious allegations of a hissy fit.LOL
When he was still at school. LOL
They really need to get rid of that guy they brought in from the U.K, what a waste of money.LOL

Not sure about the Labor 'dirt team' on this, but after the Australia Day fiasco out of Gillard's office, it wouldn't suprise.

I do suspect though that for someone, it might be the last roll of the dice.

We now have this,


The witness wishes to remain anonymous but says he is willing to sign a statutory declaration about what he saw, if necessary.

How could you see a punch and not see it land? What fraction of a second would one have time to look away? And it would be strange not to follow a moving object to it's destination. These people must think Aussies are very stupid.

Agree that if this is the best labor can come up with, they are really clutching at straws. And labor can boast about their own Latham who broke a cab driver's arm and yet they still made him leader. Hypocritical?
 
I think that the Labor smears coupled with the sympathy vote on her father's death, will open up the gap between Abbott and Gillard in this week's polls as to which would be the worst PM.

We conservatives are stuck with Abbott. It would be stupidity to change horses this late in the piece, even if there was a likely contender...which there isn't.
 

Looks like the smears are lefty lies. Im surprised people think the left wont lie through their teeth to achieve their goal. Its red101, rabid right not much better.
 

It it hard to account for why Turnbull would be more popular than Abbott among coalition voters

I hope the libs hold all their ammo till closer to the election. Abbott just has to hold his nerve. Gillard banging on about Qld and Nsw cuts after labor sent both states broke is a laugh. But it does go to show labors true face, keep spending till the nations wallet runs dry.
 
Latest poll shows Turnball is the preferred opposition leader (63 per cent to Abbott's 30 per cent).

Even worse for Abbott, among Coalition voters he is losing also (53 per cent to 45 per cent). Can he hold on?

If Abbott can't hold on, I would hope they choose a leader who will not be pro carbon tax and who would be a better team player than Turnbull.

Julie Biship was articulate when answering questions of Grattan on Meet the Press over Grattan's recent relentless attacks on Abbott when he was a teenager. There is certainly more talent and politically experienced talent other than Turnbull IF a replacement is needed.

Here she takes questions on the punch that was likely never thrown:


 
Andrew Robb for PM. Barnaby Joyce for deputy. There's your winning ticket.
 
You know you suck when you can't win a popularity contest against this government and PM. They're all so boring to listen to. Abbott hasn't had anything useful to say in months. He's offered no reason to vote for him aside from not being the incumbent.
 


Don't forget this government has the ABC and Fairfax to promote them and to throw dirt and doubt on the coalition.
