Well Done Conservatives

Good grief man - you are asking for strong government and leadership in one breath then proposing that they have no authority to decide.

 

Well hello sailor - we are never going to agree if you can for one solitary moment imagine that Rudd the megalomaniacal persecutor of colleagues and hairdressers has more class than Turnbull, you either are easily misinformed or have a very strange set of values when it comes to "class"

Your first sentence is akin to saying this Govt is weak because it doesn't decide who goes to the olympics, doesn't decide interest rates, doesn't decide IR laws.


Sounds to me like you're rooting for an authoritarian Govt.


Here's something to keep you busy for a while Aloysius. "Australia-UN relations in 2008"

In March 2008, senior United Nations officials travelled to Canberra to meet Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, elected three months earlier. According to The Age, the aim was to "repair relations". Hilde Johnson, deputy director of UNICEF, stated that Rudd was showing "stronger support" for the United Nations and multilateralism than his predecessor John Howard had During Howard's Prime Ministership, UN high commissioner for human rights Mary Robinson had criticised Australia's human rights record. Johnson stated that the new Australian government had "explicitly said there's going to be a change, that the government will engage strongly and pro-actively with the UN". For the Australian government, Bob McMullan said that his country's "relationship with the major multi-lateral organisations has deteriorated in a manner that is quite contrary to Australia's long-term interests and needs to be repaired"

So there you go. You can hate Kevin Rudd all you like. But you can't deny his record of international diplomacy. And that's what counts for suitability.


There is no point in saying that I'm "misinformed" when your own viewpoint is distorted by such hatred.

 

Behave! B)
