Don't give up on hope. Andrew Bolt is criticising Malcolm Turnbull for pursuing ALP over union corruption. That is not the problem that excusing it would be. The problem is doing it so badly. Why target only Shorten? It is the crime that needs to be addressed, not the person. Unless Turnbull is seeking to excuse the crime and catch Shorten on a technicality? Unions are too close to ALP, and they have unfair advantages over legitimate business, like being tax free, having control over industry super and control mechanisms within the ALP. How would the people, press and ALP feel if a business dominated the Libs that way? ALP needs to reform and they can only do it in opposition. And the furniture Rudd saved is preventing it.
We now know why police resourcing and Malcolm Turnbull was an issue last week. Because of the impending raids on the AWU. Somebody is keen to embarrass Turnbull. It might well be Turnbull himself. Turnbull is crazy like a fox, and is quite capable of awful political judgement. Turnbull sat on the issue of ALP corruption for years, probably not wanting to appear like Mr Abbott. So Turnbull hesitated and prevaricated and dithered. Then Turnbull sprang into decisive action which was a mistake. And he probably wanted everyone to know he was behind it. We do. Victims of formerly competent MP's who supported Turnbull and whose careers are now in tatters look like broadening to include Cash, Frydenberg and Wilson. The Libs cannot stop bleeding while they hold to Turnbull.
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell rock
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle...
