Kevvy, Im always gonna love you, I lost my favourite P.M

He had the right ideas just bad execution. The king is dead long live the fab queen.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to what Julia Gillard will to as PH... and with Wayne Swan as her deputy, Labor will definitely give that flaming idiot, Tony Abbott a run for his money at the next election.  God help Australia if that imbecile ever got to be PM... He'd take us back to the Stone-Age with his Neanderthal thinking.

I also liked Kevvy as PM, but indications are that he had lost considerable ground and popularity and probably would not have led Labor to another election victory.  The alternative, half of the Abbott ans Costello comedy routine, is not what Australia needs at this time... ever, so go Julia Gillard, stick it to Tony Abbot at the ballot box.

We don't want to wake up the next morning and find that's another fine mess he's gotten us into, do we?

The Mad Monk in charge of OZ, we will be stuck in the 50's again. Lets just smash down the hospitals, burn all the school books and stop the greedy blue collar workers from making a living.

May we never go down that path Capt'n.

Vamps - Did you catch Kev's speech after he lost the PM. The first time I've seen some true passion from him for a long time. Now that's the guy we voted for in 2007. I am going to miss him.

yeah I watched his speech.... I truly wanted to cry, but just couldnt....

and yeah i wish tony would just put some bloody pants on or either just pose for playboy and be done with it.... richard chaimberlain he AINT...lol lol lol 

He became a legend in his own lunchtime.....believed his own spin.

When you're a one-man army it doesn't take much to bring you down.

Silly bugger can only blame himself.

Meanwhile, my sis is having fun....interviews on telly and such....and her portrait of Julia is in the spotlight once more...;)

   fair shake of the sauce bottle.....you can't be fair dinkum... 

What, you mean to say you'd vote for half a comedy duo? 

If Abbott ever got to be PM we'd be on a road to abject misery at warp speed.

For many it would be a quality of life nose-dive... and I sure as hell don't want to go back to the Dark-Ages

No thanks, give me Julia Gillard any day.

I see we are taking over...

Hell, ya can have Obama seeing ya love him.  He was probably born there also.

Um... we only slightly like him... a bit more than Bush, that is... so "love" is somewhat an exaggeration.  However, if you's Yanks don't want him... we Aussies wouldn't have a problem calling him Aborigine.

Wot 'r you talking about boyo?   She's a Welsh lass... not Pommie!

Anyway, we don't want your little dust bowl. If you had anything of value we would have invaded by now, you know, like Afghanistan and Iraq...

You did. There are more Englishmen down here than the natives. 

Its so bad you can't mention any cricket nowadays without copping an outpouring of laughter.... if you say anything about the Rugby!!

Now that's not nice!  We got some good stuff here.. like AC DC, Jimmy Barnes and John Farnham. 

Oh, that's right... they're from the UK as well.

Well we've got Kylie Minogue and Delta Goodrem!!!  

Oh, that's right... they're over there in the UK.

Never mind, we still got Dame Edna Everage. 

Actual natives make up less than 5% of the population... so the majority is made up of immmigrants or descendants of immigrants.

How fortunate for you ;p

Having just watched punter bat (for the couple of minutes he was at the crease) I can understand why...

Oz was the Pom's Bikini Atoll.....at least Chernobyl was an accident.

When you are five....and your old man is in charge of taking local atmospheric fall-out readings....yes, perhaps we'd have been better off paying them all 10 quid NOT to come here.

Considering past history the Irish are lucky their plot of land wasn't chosen instead....;p

Nah, not really!  That's one character anybody 'd be ashamed to admit to ownership of. 

If there's one thing I absolutely can't stand... it's a man trying to do a woman's voice.

... remembering that the truly 'natural' Australians are represented by less than 5% of the population.

Yes, Great Britain did some regrettable things in the past... like trying to solve its over-population crisis by sending its 'unwanted' to the colony of New South Wales, many of them innocent or barely guilty... but if it hadn't sent them....

Despite the mistakes, however, some good things came of them... like cricket in the sunshine and 365 days on the beach instead of 2... oh, and we have a Jafo.. who otherwise would be using the Oxford instead of the MacQuarie dictionary.

Cambridge.... JAFOCHECK

Same difference.
