All I know about Abbott is from the John Oliver segment on him. But he reminded me of George W. Bush far more than Trump. He seemed kind of dimwitted and gaffe-prone than a egotistical douchebag.

Pauline Hanson. 20 years ago she wanted to stop the Asians from coming to Australia. Now she wants to stop the Muslims.






What a dumb bitch. And that fucking voice. :puke:

She's been defending Trump over the pussy grabbing stuff over the past few days.

Hanson came in at number 100. Caroline Wilson was at 97.

Makes sense. James Hird probably voted for Caro.

Sussan Ley resigns from Turnbull frontbench over expenses scandal
Mr Turnbull says the government will set up a new independent agency to administer and oversee the "work expenses" of all parliamentarians, modelled on a United Kingdom approach.

"It will monitor and adjudicate all claims by MPs, senators and ministers, ensuring that taxpayers' funds are spent appropriately and in compliance with the rules," he said.

The government will also introduce monthly disclosure of MPs' expenses. It currently only happens twice a year with a six-month delay.
Good. Hopefully they keep going after these arseholes.

Here's another one.



And in other news.

An Australian minister was left red-faced last night after tweeting about his meeting with Michael Fallon 10 minutes after the Defence Secretary sensationally resigned.

Christopher Pyne had been keen to highlight the defence ties between Australia and Britain following his talks in London.

The Defence Industry Minister posed for pictures with Sir Michael following their meeting yesterday and he said it was 'great to catch up' on 'many areas of collaboration'.
