Tony Abbott is ready to rule the Aussies

[Daltron]

Fantastic news that he has won. Now let's just hope he carries through everything he says he will.

He doesn't plan to do anything except cut funding wherever possible and privatise everything. Maybe you need to live here to understand how bad this is for us lol.

I don't think I've seen a single positive thing about Tony Abbott. He's essentially George Bush in a smaller country... the only good thing I can think of about him is that he isn't Julia Gillard

100% Correct.

Eugh, Australia is going to be the laughing stock of the world. The whole politics game is just embarrassing. Kicking out Gillard was a huge mistake IMO. He was voted in for, I don't even know how long, and then announces that he won't contest the labor leader position after loosing the election. What a waste of time lol.

Why is that bad? it'll do your economy good.

It'll also leave them in the stone age with 25mbit/s broadband MAX in 2020.

We have one of the best economies in the world and a AAA credit rating, there is no need to cut back. As @Chippiewill; pointed out it's a matter of keeping up in other areas which is going to become a huge set back. Oh well, differing views from both of us.
