Oconnem, when a politician betrays the trust they demanded of the public as Tony Abbott did; how on Earth can you expect people to respect them?

IMO Abbott held Australians in contempt for not giving him the nod in 2010. IMO this was demonstrated by his 2014 Budget and by the recent official report damning his decision to forward pay Denis Napthine's ill-conceived road tunnel under Melbourne's Cemetery; that just to make the Budget deficit appear to be larger than projected by the ALP for his own, self-serving political ends.

Australia provided Abbott with every possible opportunity. But after he made a complete mess of his shot at the top job he's on a mission to blame and shame everyone except himself.

IMO that describes Abbott the man to a tee!

You say Abbott made a complete mess of his shot at the top job........just tell me what was going bad apart from the polls.

Polls are no way to run a country, Lapdog
