It is truly a depressing day. Who would ever predict our new Prime Minister would be him. A homophobic, sexist and arrogant man. Also someone who believes climate change is an illusion. He also believes even though a boss is bad, isn't it good that they give people jobs. He also believes the pay gap between men and women is because men are just ( Read more... )

I keep thinking, you guys put up with Bush for 8 years. I can put up with Abbott for 3 years. I do hope he proves me wrong and makes a good PM. Although his comment on Syria was ...it's baddies against baddies".
Really? He will make us look like idiots on the world stage.

Hope you had a lovely weekend <3

I think all governments have a level of corruptions. Someone in his party lead a false lawsuit against another politican to discredit them. I'm so sick of politics! I've been avoiding the news like you wouldn't believe. I just hope people who voted for him doesn't complain in 3 months time when he axes their jobs or raises taxes. Hey, you voted for him so live with the consequences!

yeah! i avoid news too. Ours is the famous Napoles scandal that is still on going right now. And the fact that nothing will change even though she has been caught is so annoying!

That guy won? Ouch. Media here did not portray him favorably, but in the end did not announce who won

Erm yes, maybe he'll just go and lose popularity fast? People do get disappointed quickly, and he sounds like the person to make unrealistic promises. Otherwise - I think you have some lovely white wines in AUS.
