I believe she was Mr Cyclist.  And where does that take the discussion.  You must have some point in mind.

codsey wodesy......a bridge too far!  What lefties are you referring to?  Name these people whom you say would die laughing if she had broken her hip.


Would you try and control your propensity to refer to people by undermining a person on an Anonymous Forum, such as this, by giving them your own "special" nick name. It is NOT amusing.

I think if everyone here was in Barny's position they would have done the same and quickly gone to the lady's aid.



Barnaby Joyce Jumps In A Fountain To Help Elderly Woman. The deputy PM got his feet wet after she fell in.
Josh Butler Associate Editor, HuffPost Australia 24/05/2017 11:57 AM AEST | Updated 24/05/2017 12:30 PM AEST

CANBERRA -- Politicians are often accused of not getting their hands dirty, but deputy prime minister Barnaby Joyce at least got his feet wet on Wednesday when he helped fish a woman out of a Parliament House fountain.

Parliament House played host to a special morning of commemoration and reflection on the 50th anniversary of the 1967 referendum on Indigenous Australians. An Indigenous delegation gathered in the Member's Hall in the centre of the building for a cultural performance marking the occasion, but unfortunately one woman accidentally fell into the Pool of Reflection, a water feature in the centre of the hall.

The woman appeared not to notice the shallow and narrow groove between the white flooring and the large black granite square of the water feature, tumbling in. Nine News was on hand to capture the footage:

I've seen elderly people break their hip in less violent falls.

As opposed to the Coalition's usual tactic of waging of class warfare on the poor? Perhaps if they actually helped people all of the time, rather than punishing people not in their select group most of the time, it wouldn't be rare and newsworthy.

Yet you still vote for them even though they expect people to do physical work until they are 70. How many over-65s will suffer broken hips on building sites, I wonder?

Whine?

Just amazed a whole thread was needed for something so trivial.

Well Barnaby, you just cannot please them all. If you'd have walked on ignoring her after the woman fell you'd have been called a callous bastard, but you didn't and so you're still mocked for lending her a hand.  Roll Eyes

In no way am I  mocking him! He deserves  praise as this is without  doubt the first thing he has done as a pollie to actually   help a average citizen. 

Prehap the days and months wasted in his office while being paid by the taxpayer calculatoring where to buy cheap land and profit from  the Inland  rail for he and his family  has finally  looked to be about  to pay him off in millions?

Others may think that he felt by saving  the women  from the pond he had finally  accepted responsibility  for the disaster  that is our commercial  prawns ponds industry  that occurred  while he wasn't  doing his job?

Banaby Joyce. ...the maverick. . The  greatest failure to ever lead the national  party

Has this discussion still got legs?  I'm amazed that such a fundamental thing that anyone would do become s national headline, let alone is under discussion for days on end.

Now if he'd dived into a raging river to rescue a family of five trapped in a sinking car...

Ah, yes - the inland rail land buy - another clear case of using your elected position to further yourself out of government funds - plenty more where that came from.

No wonder politicians never retire poor... always as many rorts as possible developed from public policy.

That is not surprising if she was with Barnaby.




If she was "with Barnaby" - she'd have been red faced, sweaty, a touch of steam coming from the ears - and looked like she was ready to punch someone

Well, credit where it's due.  Good on him for doing what any decent human would do.
