Pints, history is beginning to acknowledge that John Howard squandered Australia's golden years and soiled future governments by embedding welfare for the wealthy in the budget, via lax corporate regulation and the trasnference of wealth from those with least of it to those who already had most of it.
IMO Tony Abbott's dreadful record speaks for itself and wherein he had to be sacked within two years of becoming PM; that after a warning and probation seven months earlier.
Is there a reason you glossed over Catherine King and Chris Bowen as possible future leaders on the Labor side of politics?
