I worked in the department that included planning when Matthew Guy was planning minister and it would be disrespectful to sh1thouse rats to say that he was as shifty as those creatures.
He was always going to struggle as leader and particularly with Kroger as a millstone around his neck.
It’s a pity that John Pesutto lost his seat. He is positively statesmanlike in comparison.

Matt Guy has zero personality and the Libs went the crime/policing route.....Andrews went with the things he has done and has a better persona..not a fan of either party by the way and the same for Fed election.....cant stand that dummy Bill Shorten and ditto for ScoMo or his buffoon mate Matthias Cormann.....

)Have you seen the Cormann/Arnie character on Micallef?

DJC - I'm reading this and my experiences are the same. I think Andrews is doing a lot of things right but the internal functioning of some departments, such as DEDJTRXYZ (or whatever it called this week) is diabolically bad. In fact, I'd call some departments in the old Primary Industries sphere such as ESR non-functional. Whomever was the last minister overseeing that mess should be held to task.

No...but I see the similarities.....
hopefully Cormann wont be back next election.....you see him in question time and he is a master deflector, answers nothing and has this smirk on his face the whole time.None of them are any good, Shorten wants to steal my franking credits just as I am about to retire, the Greens just annoy me and Pauline has teamed up with Mark Latham???..
Think the animal welfare party might be my only option......

Share your concerns EB. Shorten always reminds me of the classic serpent - maybe it's those shifty eyes!

Shorten is clueless, just going to send more self funded retiree's to the pension or sending their money overseas to invest, while the real tax cheats at the top of the tree continue to
prosper.

More and more people now qualifying for the pension. I know a couple who retired a few years ago with what I thought was a LOT of money. Don't know what they've been doing but they recently confided in me that they are now getting a part pension. I retired with a lump sum super a number of years ago and I know it has been a stressful task looking after it and trying to get a decent return to live on.

100%, but the other peanut shouldn't have signed the contract 3 months from an election.
