    Watching the Malcom Turnbul doco on ABC and it’s a real bitchfest. Barnaby Joyce called Malcom a shithead, and Malcolm has called Dutton a thug.

      Nothing will top Jeff Kennett calling John Howard a cunt to his face

      I said, “Tomorrow John” and he said, “I know where your sympathies lie”, and I said, “I couldn’t give a fuck. I have no sympathies any more. You’re all a pack of shits and tomorrow I’m going berserk”. Well he went off his brain and in the end I said to him, I said, “Howard. You’re a cunt. You haven’t got my support, you never will have and I’m not going to rubbish you or the party tomorrow but I feel a lot better having told you you’re a cunt.”
