Thank you Ronni for drawing these threads together & capturing exactly how I've been feeling these last few days. Once media had Howard on repeat had to avoid tv coverage for my mental health as I was yelling at the tv. The foundations for many of the issues facing Aus today were laid by Howard.

The Greens under Bob Brown enabled Tony Abbott and a decade of climate wars all because they insisted on their 'perfect' solution rather than compromise for incremental change. Never forget, never forgive.

Hi Van, electorate of BEAN (deep Sth of Canberra), but voted at MOAD for the fun & atmosphere, they provide info on democracy & a quiz to pass the time in the queue.

In 2022 Albo should have done 'night of the long knives' on most LNP's SES appointees, he left Pezullo & others in place too long. The SES Pezullo mentored in Home Affairs moved on & infiltrated (corrupted, destroyed) other agencies with same authoritarian methods & extreme right wing views.

Stick with Carmens and/or Red Tractor, both wholly Aussie owned.

Or "deputy sherriff" Howard who blindly followed George W into the Iraq war based on flimsy evidence of WMDs - just how far would Dutton go to emulate Howard?

Which Howard?
The Howard that created the long term housing affordability crisis with negative gearing & capital gains tax concessions,
The Howard that privatised aged care and child care leading to substandard services & bankruptcies, or
the Howard that proposed Workchoices & lost his own seat!
