    Paul Keating states bleeding obvious - All Australian news outlets!

    Speaking on ABC Radio National today, the former Labor prime minister gave a scathing assessment of Mr Abbott's performance, saying he had consolidated the right-wing "nutters" behind him.

    And he took exception to Mr Abbott's criticism of Indigenous acknowledgment and welcome to country ceremonies at official functions by calling him a "little John Howard".

    via abc.net.au

    I have to say its all a bit silly really. We have now seen, not only the electorate, but now former politicians, forget about left and right.

    I do it all the time, remind people that is, no, you're other left! For too long the media outlets in this country have pandered to the left of politics and this has resulted in a false sense of what is truly 'left' and what is truly 'conservative' politics.

    Abbott is a conservative. Well duh! Thanks Paul for sharing!

    And being called a 'little John Howard' - well apart from the irony - I think its probably a good thing, after-all, Howard did lead this country for a long time Paul, remember? And he did develop our nation into a competitive and profitable place, remember?

    Onya Keating, you never fail to amuse me, still.

    As a qualified educator, and educator of the educators, I am a communications expert; understanding how and why information delivery works and doesn't work. I have experience with technology and consider myself an information-futurist. I am a dreamer!

    My experience in commercial enterprise has helped me take a leap from the structure and politic of government back into the real world. I am a thinker!

    But I am a teacher; was a teacher of skills and knowledge, and now, like most of us, just a teacher.
