I saw a government TV ad tonight about protecting Australian jobs.
It didn’t say so but it seemed to be about protecting local jobs in preference to 457 visas, like the one Julia Gillard’s former communications director is on.
How this ad got to air is beyond reason. It’s not an ad of public importance. But it could be construed as blatant political promotion to benefit the government in the lead-up to an election. At taxpayers’ expense.
I went to bed last night and had a bad dream. Julia Gillard was the Prime Minister of Australia instead of Kevin Rudd. He was bad enough but she was a lot worse. A huge budget deficit, $250 billion in government debt, the unions in control, ‘all men are misogynists’, us versus them, a carbon tax.
I woke up in a sweat. Was it all real? Could it be possible? Phew! It was all a bad dream. Kevin was still PM.
And then he spoke. Maybe Julia wasn’t so bad after all?
Kevin Rudd has made his first speech as the new leader of the Labor Party.
Don’t assume Kevin Rudd will be Prime Minister of Australia tomorrow.
If the Governor General does her job correctly, she will ask him if he will have the confidence of the House of Representatives. That can only be done by a vote tomorrow.
If that doesn’t happen, the Governor General must commission the Leader of the Opposition, Tony Abbott, as Prime Minister.
Over to you Ms Bryce!
Kevin Rudd is back as leader of the Australian Labor Party. More big words, more blah, blah, blah.
God help us all!
The wise men and women who deposed Kevin Rudd now realise that putting Julia Gillard in as PM was a mistake.
Keep her! Please! We want to vote her out big time.
We need you to stay as Prime Minister so Labor is wiped from the political landscape on 14th September.
