Has there ever been an Australian PM with a filthier mouth than TONY TURNBULL

I think OLD WILL is jealous of Turnballs home

@RandomUniverse: Hello there. I lean toward companies like Apple, Google and Microsoft when they made a strong public statement recently that Trump is bad for business. It is not just the political guerrilla tactics is it? Trump is a wealthy man in his own right with a worldwide spread of business interests of his own. Who can really know what motivates his unpredictable and extreme decisions in office? As you have already mentioned his political popularity is worrying as there is little effective political opposition. If I were comfortably insulated from the consequences of his extreme decisions I would sit back and laugh at the gorilla dancing. The political antics in my country (Australia) are just as disappointing. Australian Prime Minister Mongrel Turnbull has revealed a troubling propensity for malicious personal attack on his rivals in the House Of Representatives. We don't pay them to behave like miscreant schoolboys. Fortunately we still have a constitutional separation of powers which divides the institutions of government into three branches: legislative, executive and judicial. Trump's legal battles may not be won as easily as his political battles were.

Greetings,

My name is Mark. Can I move to your country? Please. Or would New Zealand take me?

Trump is out of his league. I predict he will self-destruct, and either resign or be impeached. I suspect that all but the most rabid of his supporters will see that he is truly unsuited for the position he was elected to.

He has some serious behavioral and psychological defects. I believe he is truly delusional. He lives in an alternate reality and feeds on 'alternate facts'. I read the news with wonder and amazement. His missteps are breathtaking.

To compound things, he doesn't realize the complexity and interconnectedness of the issues he has to deal with. He shoots from the hip, and doesn't acknowledge the consequences of what he has done.

I apologize to the entire world (except North Korea) for what this egomaniacal buffoon is doing. I know it has big ripples around the world. And tsunamis in some parts of the globe.

@RandomUniverse: Hello again. Mark is okay with me if you prefer to use that name. Australia and New Zealand are separate countries with close ties based on locality, history, trade, tradition and genuine mateship, something like the relationship that exists between the USA and Canada. The locals see the differences but everyone else sees the similarities. I meet a few Americans down under but not as many as one might think. My honest opinion is that very few Americans ever really want to leave the "Home Of The Brave". In fact I am sure there are more Australians who want to live in the US. I am not ready to give up yet on America just because it has appointed a silly leader. The American constitution contains checks and balances such as the Emoluments clause to affirm that no American president can serve two masters. If you choose to live below the equator remember that about 90% of the Australian mainland is permanently uninhabitable. Just this last week Australia experienced a heat wave with temperatures rising above all previous records and with catastrophic fire hazard indexes [i]that were off scale[/i]. At the same time, during this last week volunteers tried to rescue hundreds of pilot whales that beached themselves in New Zealand with questionable benefit to the surviving whales. Nobody seems to know for sure why whales do this. As far as I can see Americans who decide to live down under adapt better than the whales to our way and have no particular trouble finding and keeping work and friends once they adjust to driving on the left hand side of the road and using metric units of weights and measurement.
Australia has a large land area with a relatively small population. It is something like the total land area of the USA occupied by about half the population of California with about 80% of people living near the eastern seaboard where residential housing prices are second only to New York. If you live near one of Australia's big cities Google, Apple, Microsoft, phone- out pizza franchisers and Japanese cars are ubiquitous. The further you live from one of the big cities the lower the price of residential housing, but it takes a special type of character to endure the isolation of life in a remote area with few of the benefits of civilization. As you may have already guessed I like my internet and pizza. I agree Trump lacks political experience and diplomacy and I think he faces a serious risk of being impeached for conflict of interest between his personal business and the affairs of state. His handling of foreign affairs with Russia does not fill anyone with confidence either.
I may always call Australia home but it is not perfect. We have our problems too.

@will999: I agree I also hate the prick for being smug and out of touch, yes I know people are doing it tough living on the streets - I feel very sorry for them, before we continue to bring more refugees in to the country lets look after our people first

@nedkelly: Hi again. You're giving me ideas. I'm not sure how many of them will fly though. Negative gearing on investment property is a scheme that turns residential property into a tax haven for people on high incomes with the unfortunate consequence that it drives up housing prices and makes housing unaffordable for everyone else. It takes an essential commodity (housing) and turns it into something else (a scheme to make wealthy people even wealthier) by turning housing into a cash cow. I would like to [b]axe negative gearing on investment property[/b]. By driving away the speculators it would bring more residential housing into the market. Our [b]Federal Treasurer Scot Morrison[/b] admits, more available housing would bring the price of housing down making it more affordable for everyone else.

@nedkelly: Hi again. are you nedkelly1 from EP? I was on EP as well, same userid will999

You're right Alison. That will be a tough act for anyone to follow.

LOL

Hello Destiny . Malcolm Turnbull is the ridiculous Australian PM who put a smiley face on the very unpopular policies of the previous Liberal PM Tony Abbott. Because he has adopted the same policies he may as well adopt the same name (IMHO).
