His first task should be to block supply so Hockey cant run up 1/2 a trillion in debt.

Is he a man of the people, or a right wing lacky ?

Didn't the Greens support the lift in the debt ceiling.

So Greens are right wing lackeys.

OK......

You want the GG to block supply to Hockey.

OK......

Well that covers the retarded sections of your post.

The greens are fringe dwellers like the far right. You dont want either running up 1/2 trillion dollar debt.

Not suprisingly the sensible centre (labor right, and the silenced liberal left) are not in favor.

No they helped to abolish it completely.

I didn't really understand them doing this, seems to be incredibly stupid it's like giving the vampires the keys to the blood bank.

We have already seen how much the Libs or the others for that matter can be trusted with no checks balances or accountability.

In an earlier Thread....some weeks ago, this was flagged, and I posted my opposition to the idea. It has me stuffed why he would want to accept this, unless the man is driven by sheer ego which has to be a serious flaw. He does not need the money, he has plenty to do already, and an ongoing military 'pension' we'd all kill for. He has zero experience or exposure to this sort of role, having no legal or other relevant administrative back-ground, in fact none of the skills and experience he has will be of assistance to him. He is not known as ceremonially inclined, or driven. He is a 'good bloke' but, the bloke is a soldier.....nah.

It will be interesting to see how many of his old military cronies ride in on his coat-tails.

Someone's been double dipping in the stupid bucket haven't they.

Not enough center ground in Australian politics.

Good choice tony.

Good to see the back of that old bag bryce.

The hiener affair anyone.

I think you mean ‘the Heiner Affair” the thing old Akerman drags out occasionally to cheers from the fanbois.

Re Cosgrove— an attention seeker appointed by a weak, populist PM.

Rudd is no longer PM, so don't know who you're referring to.

He will do, but won’t be a patch on some of the great GGs we have had.

At least Abbott didn’t appoint John Uterus Howard, our worst Treasurer

(Wayne Swan)

and second worst PM!

It's far better than the succession of minor members of the English aristocracy we had in the first 30 years since federation.

Hah!

Keating had to fix up the mess Treas. Howard left. Swan had to cope with the aftermath of boom and bust and Howard’s reckless spending. A lot of that is still left, BTW.

Not old, I just know history. I prefer to have an Australian as GG rather than someone who owes this country no allegiance.
