He once said to John Hewson, with words to the effect: 'You're just like those gentlemen at David Jones. All dressed smart, but nothing upstairs' I choked on my drink.
Yeah, he was great at hanging it on people but a terrible leader, ran the country into a recession that we had to have. Interest rates at 18 %. Cut tariffs which decimated our local manufacturing resulting in job losses, bought Italian suits while telling everyone to buy Australian, there was some rip off deal connected with a piggery he sold. Deregulated the banking industry - opening it to overseas banks. He was a comedian in an Armani suit. What a great man.
You gotta love how much Keating directly engaged with the opposition. Not just general political ideology, he would directly engage with them, especially the opposition front bench.
The official standing orders require all statements and answers to be directed through the speaker. Back then they weren’t so strict on it so he could get away with it, but now whenever you try this the other side of the house is quick to enforce the rules and shut it down.
Did something with his lips once made a noise like a small baby I cracked up that day. He completely controlled parliament before he was PM. After he won the 93 election he definitely lost his way which was a disaster for Australia, being lumped with Howard turning the clock back , and telling us how good that was for the country.

One would be surprised to find any honourable values present in any of the current parties. We find our political direction by keeping the compass firmly on Americas butt and send out the best grovelers money can buy to agree to whatever posture other countries would like us to take while hard working Australians go to work so they can afford to live in their cars. Todays political arena is nothing short of a circus with so called members that would be lucky to hit water if they fell out of a boat. Paul Keating knew Australia was great. He knew how to set things straight and put what was right for Australia in place. Thinking about who or what runs our country now just makes me tired and sad.
Still love the “the honorable member for Wentworth (Hewson) is like a lizard on a rock…. Alive. But looking dead.” 😂😂😂
He had the Libs terrified in parliament sittings. So strong and humorous. Thanks Paul for the tax amnesty you gave us all in 1988. You saved my bacon my friend and taught me a lot about doing the right thing for the country at the same time.
God bless the Australian Labor Party of Australia.
Unemployment was at 11% when Keating became PM. The man was an economic disaster
They both suck and thats why your race is being erased and your culture dies with your people.
I forgot to mention home loan interest rates were at 18% when Keating was PM. The man destroyed the lives of so many people like all Labor PMs do.
Australia needs another leader like this.
Brilliant .
I am not a Labour person but Keating is just awesome.
Obviously, labour is the noun for work and Labor the name of the party
Great compilation. I still love when he called Downer "Curly" the best 👌🏽
Very Intelligent.. charisma ! It’s what is missing in politics!
'More to be pitied than despised' classic!
So good to see a reunion of PK and Laura Tingle on the $360B submarine deal.
His wit and humour still intact, as he demolished Q&A posers
Good old ACME Fightback. PK kept it in his drawer. I love it!!!
Until it was stolen :(
*Slaps Fightback! paper*
I’ve come to love this thing…!
Prob my favourite PJK moment 😂
An Australian national treasure 😍
that should be buried and forgotten
He’s a real leader, strong yet charismatic, with the interests of his ppl in his heart
Paul Keating is a legend
"are your a member of the red shoes club too" wake up Australia, insanity is not an excuse.
He is on the list
No Pedo is a legend in my book.
Do your research.
Keating must have been an absolute nightmare to deal with if you were on the other side.
I loved Paul Keating ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Australia yearns for another Labor leader like him
@@CaptainStabbin1989 The worst debt in history is Abbott all the way up to Scomo pre bushfire.. 1500% increase!
@@CaptainStabbin1989 He took over a Prime Minister that maintained positive GDP growth throughout the GFC with Swann being award Finance Minister of the Year while every other first world Country went into recession.
Lol no it doesn’t
It would be great to have some charisma and personality on either side of the aisle
@@CaptainStabbin1989 actually, national debt skyrocketed under Abbott, then Turnbull then Morrison. Now at eye watering levels, combined with the first recession in 30 years. Liberal Party = economic frauds
He was the only prime minister that had any balls
Paul should have been on stage! He was a comical genius!!!
They did do a musical based on Keating's term in office.
Indeed Paul was Sir!
@@westnblu I saw Keating The Musical in 2008. It was brilliant!
@@madness8556 . Often the opposition from their expressions had front row seats to a show themselves when Keating was letting loose.. Haha.
@@westnblu I just love the fact that Keating was so politically incorrect when delivering his outbursts and one liners. Honestly I don't know any other notable politician from the past 40 years that had the whit to do what Keating could do like a stand up comedian. An interesting fact is that Jeff Kennett, former Victorian Liberal premier hated John Howard but got along famously with Paul Keating when they were both in office.
I adore Paul Keating, he was the best.
@Units Received - get rid off the Union Jack & have an Australian designed flag. Canada has its own flag - why not Australia?
The Greatest ....Paul Keating
Golden days in Australia. Finally returning with Albo
You're kidding aren't you?? Albo can't hold a candle to Keating
Hang on, let me go throw up, I won't be long.
@@bgl1082 "finally returning with Albo".… Christ I'd hate to think what this guy's "golden days" are. Ok he's not been in a couple of months but seriously???
Hardly
You got to be kidding Albo is as woke as you can get he's nothing compared to PK
You Don't know what you've got till it's Gone!
Watching footage of Keating in parliament is my new favourite hobby
I used to love Paul at parliament time
“Sit down and cop it...!”
Genius
