Malcolm Turnbul is a beach fish

If he does one more flip flop someone's going to hit him over the head with a hammer.

eta: beach should read beached

He's not actually flip-flopping. The appearance of flip-flopping is caused by the whole world revolving around him.

Yes well that's probably true.

I'm just annoyed at his behaviour over the last week to be honest. I've been watching him and his front benchers basically try and slam the government over this rescue package they've put together after their initial response of "we support this package completely". I've watched question time a few days this week and really, I think the man is an idiot. In fact, he could be even worse than Dr Nelson.

This is exactly why I don't like Turnbull. He'll say whatever he thinks will advance his interest at any given moment, and if it contradicts what he said last week, no matter. Slippery, lacking integrity, untrustworthy. I mean, more so than an average politician. Not dissimilar to a high-functioning sociopath.

I totally agree with you on that Zen. He just doesn't seem to put a lot of thought into what an idiot he's coming across as.

On the other hand, I think Wayne Swann is handling himself beautifully over the last couple of months. Solid as a rock.
