Rudd was previously Prime Minister from 2007-2010 and was pretty bad. But Gillard was worse.
He’s a less extreme socialist than her, but still a socialist.
The risk is that he may do better at the election later this year than she would. Labor is still very unlikely to win, but it may not be the massive landslide victory for conservatives the polls were indicating we were heading towards.
Tony Abbott (who was Health Minister in the Howard government) should become Prime Minister after the election in a few months - he’s a conservative in Howard’s mode - maybe even slightly more conservative. But I’m not convinced he has quite the leadership skills of Howard. Even so, a massive improvement on what we’ve had for the last six years since Howard.
I feel for ya, mate.
We re-elected Gov. Moonbeam...

This tends to be a ‘who makes me puke less’ competition.
Julia was out and out a leftie and really made no bones about it. Kevin is more a “I will sign all the UN treaties you want” leftie and smile like a smarmy git while doing it. “Fair suck of the sauce bottle” (puked again).
