Im enjoying the stoush, Im not ever going to vote for either of them but it does take me back to the good old days when pollies on the same side had enough passion to give each other a good public flogging.

Howard and Coesllo were quite tame. Hawke and Keating were quite strident fights but NOTHING like this has happened in a very long time - not since the 1950s. Rudd and Gillard could literally destroy the party.

All good fun to sit back and watch.

Im talking more about the post Menzies stoushes in the Liberal Party that only came to an end with Howards secret deal with Costello.
The constant pre Hawke stoushes in the Labor Party post ww2 were lots of fun as well.

He did no more than Gillard did when she tapped him on the shoulder. And for those saying that she is being treated differently because she is a woman, it is absolutely true. If she was a man she never would have kept the leadership with the poll numbers she has been getting.

Yes, I suppose he could! That'll really do wonders for his little ambition to return to the leadership won't it?

I challenge the Government that they have no legal right to force unemployed or disabled Australians to work as casuals for Therese Rein-Rudd and Kevin Rudd. They have no legal right to engineer employment instability to make Kevin Rudd and Therese Rein richer.

Centrelink has no legal right to force unemployed and disabled people to work for Therese Rein and Kevin Rudd in Casual jobs, against their free sovereign will, when they require secure full time work either.
