  • Sky News host Peta Credlin has responded to the ABC’s Nemesis documentary from Monday and opened up after 10 years since the collapse of the Abbott prime ministership.
    Titled ‘The Abbott Years’ the documentary series explores Mr Abbott’s ‘thumping victory’ in 2013 before being removed as prime minister in less than two years later.
    “Like Abbott, I declined to appear on the program because I was certain of a selective and distorted version of my response to the usual crap that I was too tough; too tough on entitlements, they said.
    “I served as a political staffer for 16 years because I believe in the Liberal Party’s values - perfect? No one is, but I was loyal, absolutely loyal and always working for the government, not trying to undermine it.
    “That’s why it hurt so much to see the party used by carpet baggers and careerists who should never have been given the honour of Liberal Party pre-selection in the first place.”

      I loved that he didn't do stuff for the media. He'd go off fire fighting without telling the media he was going. He'd wear his budgie smugglers on the each like other blokes his age out for a morning swim, and not give a toss what the papers said.
      And boy did the media hate that he didn't dance for them.

      Howard was actually much more of a fiscal liberal than Abbott. The blowback of the 2014/2015 Abbott/Hockey budget also caused the Liberal's polling numbers to fall through the floor, which would have thrown a spanner in the works of any chances of reelection of Abbott and the Liberal parliament of the day, let alone 3 reelections like Howard, so I don't think the fantasy would have ever come to be.
