Generally the conservatives get abit Mellow after politics.
But i think Hewson is a follower of the Malcom Fraser era of the Liberal Party. Ie. Strong conservative economic policies, centre-left wing social policies.

No need to pander to RWNJs in their âbroad churchâ anymore?
Makes me want to puke when I read any reference to Malcolm Fraser and Centre-LeftWing social policies. He was always a carnt who treated working people like dogs.

Rightie pollies etc who spend their entire public lives being reactionary power hungry â â â â â â then experience a blinding moment of reality and start playing the principled elder statesman when they retire can just get in the bin. Fraser ran a coup against whitlam. Turnbull governed with Abbottâs policies on the environment, refugees, NBN, and kept up the public service cuts. Even â â â â â â â Roman âI vill see your papers pliss, schweinhundâ Quadvlieg is about to release a book that paints himself as a lovely guy who was forced to be a monstrously callous â â â â â â â â against his will by political interests.
Get stuffed. You had your chance to govern with principle, and you didnât. These pathetic attempts to whitewash scummy legacies are just nauseating, as is the willingness of the media to take them seriously.

Labor also claims Ripon, by 31 votes, which is a little bit of a surprise, because they trailed even into yesterday.
Final state of the parties Labor 56, Libs/Nats 26, others 6 (3 greens, 3 independents).

Pleased to see ScoMo grant a conscience vote on some issue or other.
If only the RWNJs had a conscience.
