"Barnaby Joyce won't rule out a comeback but says he won't undermine Michael McCormack."

He only been gone for one day and he's plotting his return already.

Probably been studying Tony Abbott's tactics.

I think Barnaby is so damaged that he won't come back, and I courageously predict that he will lose his seat in the next election. 8)

I hope that your prediction is correct.   :)

I'll back your prediction, Rumpy.  But I also predict that Tony Windsor won't get back either, I don't think he's come out that well in the wash after all his sniping in recent months.

I think you are right.


Windsor said he wouldn't run again so I think he was just firing a few last shots of revenge, and he hit the mark.

"Why do older men find it so hard to take young professional women seriously?"

Remember this guys:

The truth hurts but pain builds character.

I have watched Michaelia Cash since I observed her kissing Tony Abbott full on the mouth when congratulating him after he made a speech at a Liberal event while he was PM. The other members of the audience all shook his hand or gave him a quick hug of approval. I think yesterday we saw the real Michaelia Cash which she has until now been able to control to a degree but when she speaks there is, to me, an underlying arrogance. She would make a serious enemy of anyone who crossed her.

A bungle by Barnaby Joyce's former department results in a hundred priceless plant specimens being destroyed.

There is something very unlikeable about Michaelia Cash.

She is living proof that women can be loud-mouthed bullies too.   :(

The Federal government will buy Snowy Hydro from NSW and Victoria.


And then what ?


Sell it off to their mates in business to make even more profit and push our power prices up even more ?

He's probably setting himself up to walk away from the relationship. 


"The baby is not mine, so there's no need for me to stay around.  I did not want to admit to not being the biological father earlier because it would lead to questions about my manhood. I wish Vikki Campion and her child all the best for the future."
