How can Abbott be so lacking in class and so narrow in his thinking that he uses the world stage to whinge about Australians not wanting to pay the $7 GP tax? How can he be so childish and gormless?
Here he is on the biggest stage on earth and he comes up with a petty politics speech. This guy is seriously deluded.
Surely the Tories can find a statesman somewhere somehow. Someone with gravitas and intellect. Someone who cares about our nation and the future.
The. worst. PM. ever.
Mr Shorten said the address was at best "weird and graceless" but at worst a "disastrous missed opportunity for Australia".
"This was Tony Abbott's moment in front of the most important and influential leaders in the world and he's whingeing that Australians don't want his GP tax," he said.
Mr Shorten said Mr Abbott had had "months to prepare for this moment" but failed dismally.
"He boasted of taking Australia backwards on climate change action, making it harder for Australians to go to university and pricing sick people out of getting the healthcare they need," Mr Shorten said.
