Does he dye his hair? It goes from a ginger brown to a sprinkled grey and finally to a jet black ! Never trust a man who dyes their hair IMHO.
Mr Tanner... also says Ms Gillard has dyed her hair red for years to help build her personal brand.
“It makes her more noticeable. She has registered as an individual personality in the sideshow.”
=Julia;635229]Oh Lord, explod. I can't believe you're taken in by Bob Brown's smiling, oh so reasonable, unruffled countenance!
Does not add spin? He doesn't know anything other than spin?
How about just a few costings for your policies, Bob Brown?
He gets very rattled when any journalist actually dares to ask him to supply any economic basis for what he suggests.
If you're so fond of Bob Brown, hope you'll be equally thrilled when we get constant blackouts because the energy companies have closed down as a result of being unprofitable in a carbon tax environment.
Ditto hope you'll be delighted to contemplate your fellow Australians who are already in financial disadvantage who will be unable to afford their electricity in sufficient quantity to keep warm in winter etc etc.
Oh yes, the world of the Greens is just all supa dupa. Forget about any effects on irrelevant human beings. Just follow the religion of dubious climate change zealots.
He he, hadn't noticed. BTW, a toast to you, when up there at the Ross Island Hotel. But mind the company you keepDoes he dye his hair? It goes from a ginger brown to a sprinkled grey and finally to a jet black ! Never trust a man who dyes their hair IMHO.

'..We wrote a couple of days ago about the young versus old economy struggle over who will be the next leader of the IMF in the wake of Dominique Strauss-Kahn’s resignation. Ever since its inception, the IMF had had a European in charge. Christine Lagarde, the finance minister of France, is the favorite, and the US and Europe have enough votes to determine the outcome...'
Zackly.If you're genuine Mr Turnbull, turn up. Mr Hockey thinks so too. Marginal MPs got shafted - because you couldn't turn up, Mr Turnbull.

Abbott needs to bring this Turnbull thing to a head. Either he has the support of his Party or he doesn't. Sure he won the last ballot for the leadership by one vote, but after that was astute enough to have his Party vote on the ETS and gained a resounding majority that said "no" to Turnbull's support of Rudd's amended ETS. As a Leader he should face Turnbull's ambitions head on. Call another ballot. Frankly, imo, reading blogs, it is apparent that some won't vote Liberal if Turnbull is in charge and others won't vote Liberal if Abbott is in charge. Then, there are those who won't vote for Joe Hockey. How on earth the Coalition can win the next election with this sort of division amongst conservative voters, and within the Party, is beyond me. Get rid of all three and put Scott Morrison in charge. A fresh face is needed. As for the smoking thing, putting brands in brown paper bags won't stop the addicts from puffing away. Plainly, "Plain packaging" is a Labor wedge, and a stupid idea

Mr Turnbull is better suited to investment banking and entrepreneurship in business than parliamentary work. He is not suitable as Liberal leader, nor as PM. His presence in parliament is not constructive, not productive. Back to banking and business -where he could create new wealth and new jobs in strategic industries. He could work on environmental pollution matters as part of those activities, and pursue republican causes on the side. Mr Abbott and his supporters are capable of defeating the ALP, and of providing the right kinds of leadership and governance for Australia. Any Liberal, inside or outside the parliament, who disrupts Mr Abbott's and the Coalition's progress to government -as an expression of their personal hunger for public recognition and power- should find another playing field. For Australia's sake
according to some reports it appears that members were advised that these votes wer not critical and even Abbott didnt attend them.
According to today's "Weekend Australian" Mr Abbott had had a pair arranged for these votes because he had an appt to meet with some visiting personage or something.There are some reports floating around that Abbott missed the same votes as Turnbull. No doubt Labor will make something of that. Could it be a play by Hockey?
And Tony Abbott - who at the least sighted the email before it was distributed, at worst approved it - needs to understand he is fuelling instability by authorising public insults against colleagues.
Abbott may have implored his partyroom not to make itself the issue the day before the email was sent, but he needs to start taking his own advice.
A public insult is what Entsch's email was. By sending it out to the entire lower house team of the opposition, the email was always going to leak. Entsch would have known that, especially given that back in October 2000 he was on the other side of a similar exchange between recalcitrant MPs who missed votes and the then chief whip for the Howard government, Michael Ronaldson.
Apart from Entsch's sloppiness in not even getting the number of missed divisions by Turnbull and others right in his widely distributed email, he is something of a hypocrite for doing exactly what he found inappropriate more than a decade earlier. Not to mention untruthful.
At first, when asked, Entsch claimed he had acted independently of Abbott and the leader hadn't even seen the email. Later he admitted showing it to Abbott but not to seek approval, only as a courtesy.
Telling lies (or being misleading to be a little kinder) seems to be contagious in the Coalition at the moment. When I spoke to one of Abbott's senior media advisers on Thursday he told me Abbott had no knowledge of the email until after it went out. His office had been pushing that line all over the place. Thanks for the spin, but we now know that to be false.
Then there is Abbott's hypocrisy in authorising the Entsch email, remembering that when Turnbull was leader and the vote for or against the government's $42 billion stimulus package happened, Abbott slept through no fewer than five divisions.
For the record, sleeping through five ringings of the bell in Parliament House (he was on the couch in his office) is hard to do. They aren't exactly soft in tone. But Abbott had been at dinner earlier that night consuming copious amounts of alcohol (he said he lost count of the number of bottles of wine drunk when asked about the session by a journalist at the time) with Peter Costello, Peter Dutton and Kevin Andrews. They made it to the vote but Abbott didn't.
While Turnbull is no doubt happy for others to plumb for his return, or indeed for a promotion to the shadow treasury over his one-time mate Joe Hockey, Turnbull isn't engaging in the sort of backgrounding that he is being accused of. Far from it.
Who is the greatest liar of all time?
It's got a long nose and dyes her RED
You know the one who said " THERE WILL BE NO CARBON DIOXIDE TAX UNDER THE GOVERNMENT i LEAD ( July 2010)
Quoting The Australian is an interesting weapon of choice.I am quoting from today's Australian by Peter van Onselen the hot bed of lefty attack dog politics.
At first, when asked, Entsch claimed he had acted independently of Abbott and the leader hadn't even seen the email. Later he admitted showing it to Abbott but not to seek approval, only as a courtesy.
Oh dear the Abbottliar at work yet again tisk tisk
Why do you deduce it's Mr Abbott who is lying in this instance?
...
Julia, its' because that's what labor supporters are doing. They seem to mimic Ms Gillard (oops just typed villard by mistake...lol).
Labor seem to pefer having their noses in Abbott's business rather than fix up their own messes..lol Seems that anything snall thing about the coalition gets ramped way beyond all proportions whilst the labor messes out of all proportion are quietly left alone.
LEFTIES LIKE TO SEE A LIFT IN THE POLLS.
No need to yell, comrade.
Just remember the only poll that counts, is on election day.
