Tony Abbott's spin doctors have their work cut out for him as they try to defuse the damage done by his left eye.
Surprise! The budget is not only cruel and horrific, it's worse than you'd thought. The Coalition has broken so very many of its election promises, just to stick the boot into the poor, sick and old.
Yes, the Age of Entitlement is over, and yes, this is the Budget We Had to Have, but by god, isn't there anything else to talk about?
The federal government is telling everyone the newest budget is going to bring a lot of pain. It might not be as bad as you think -- and that's a smart strategy. Plus rape in the media and Tony's new toys ...
George Brandis is once again standing up for those who need it least. Plus whether we should get rid of private school funding and a political candidate with some horrific views on domestic violence.
Let's tackle the real bludgers in our society -- pensioners, young people trying to get an education and asylum seekers. Screw 'em!
Julia Gillard reviews Game of Thrones, Arthur Sinodinos can't recall much of anything, and the Greens are OK in WA.
Abbott's brought back knighthoods, which is apt given he has a very mediaeval attitude towards the climate, asylum seekers and education.
It's bigots, bigots, everywhere, and plenty of free speech. Plus: do teachers actually do any work?
Remember Julia Gillard's misogyny speech? Here is a version set to music that will bring tears to your eyes. Plus: are things ever going to get better?
