AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Semi-Tonie has a nice ring to it doesn't it boys?
Now let's see if there's any actual change. Also, LNP are now hypocrites.
Tone's gone and Turnbull is the new leader. It feels just like 2009/2010 all over again Where's Antdawg to defend the Libs when they're now the biggest political hypocrites in Australian political history
At least the producers of The Killing Season can make a new series. ^Turnbull is already solving unemployment.
Average of one new prime minister each year
Did he actually stop the boats?
Anyone got a run down on how he compares to Corporate boat stopper Tony.

Oh boy
You jumped the gun. He won't be the PM until tomorrow. Abbott still retains the executive power. Although, he'll be the shortest sitting PM since Harold Holt. lel

rip to a good man. now for an influx of muslims and illegals xd
It's only $4,000 for the pension anyway. And he will be eligible for the Life Gold Pass (for flight allowances), so he still gets many benefits.
Tony is a cunt. [editline]14th September 2015[/editline] Malcolm Turnbull seems like less of a cunt.
policies still roughly the same, this is bad if you're a labour voter still history though, very exciting
In one answer, Turnbull has impressed more than any politician in the last two years. I'm scared. :freakout:
when's the royal hanging for tony?
He's really pleasant with his speeches
Even though we're still stuck with the Liberal party till next August, I can't help but feel really, really happy.
[QUOTE=Zelpa;48680257]when's the royal hanging for tony?[/QUOTE] Speaking of royal, both the leader and deputy leader are now republicans. Both also support gay marriage, and both are small l liberals. [editline]14th September 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=mr apple;48680261]Even though we're still stuck with the Liberal party till next August, I can't help but feel really, really happy.[/QUOTE] If you're a supporter of the Labor party you should be extremely concerned rather than happy, because the electability of the Liberal party just skyrocketed with Abbott out of the job.
[QUOTE=download;48680128]Better hypocrites than a guaranteed loss next election. At least now they're actually at the starting gate.[/QUOTE] That's unfortunate. Was hopin Tony'd win so they'd get a guaranteed loss next election.
