The string across the ABC screen this morning read "Abbot claims Australians are sick of politicians and Government can do better". Well, duh! Does he think this is something we haven't realised? Is he now going to say that he, personally is almost the epitome of what we dislike about politicians or, as usual, is it all the fault of someone else?
What we don't like about politicians is that they say one thing and do another, they are driven by ideology rather than by the welfare of the people, their decisions benefit one group of people at the expense of the majority, and they manipulate their expenses to line their own pockets. Tony Abbott has been tagged our most successful Leader of the Opposition. He achieved that title by being negative, unco-operative, sexist, racist and by playing on the worst instincts of the voters.
Add to to that list disloyalty to his own leader and it's clear that the best gift Tony Abbott could present to the Australian people would be to resign.
