John Stanley on the future of the Liberals under Tony Abbott

Tony Abbott will be running for the position of Prime Minister in the next election. John Stanley looks at the issues where he is surprisingly open minded, but ponders on what most voters think of his extreme conservative views.

Is Tony Abbott too conservative in his views to be Prime Minister?


Blog comments Your Say

  • Tony Abbott didn't say that he finds homosexuality "challenging". He said that he feels "threatened" by it. There's a huge difference. That such blatant homophobia is a laughing matter on the radio is disgusting.

  • It is fine to have personal views of any discription but it is not fine when you are a public figure as large as Tony abbot to indicate that homosexuality is not the right order. What right order are you refering to? nature? there are gay and lesbian animals aswell take the whiptail lizard for example they are a lesbian species. Words like this alienate young GLBTQI individuals and propels them to suicide. These children are 7 times more likely to suicide. Well dont Tony i hope one of your daughters turns out to be a lesbian and escapes your biggoted, sexist lifetstyle.
