Albo's sheep lie, page-116

"it's called diplomacy. The LNP are just bloody useless at the art.". .. its worth remembering that before Abbott damaged the Lib candidature selections the Libs did fairly well in diplomacy.

the problem is the current membership and particularly leadership. Howard allowed his little mate into federal politics and the rest followed. now we have a Liberal Party that merely destroys the economy (9 years of deflation of wages and the economy dangling on a string just above the recession line) and doesn't give a tinker's dam (spit) about the social conditions, cost of living (it was tougher under falling real wages Morrison than it is now) and the conditions for grossly rorting businesses (such as the so-called private "colleges" to rip off the immigration sector and criminal gangs to rip off the NDIS).

and yep Morrison cost the Aus economy many $Bns by deliberately ***king up the Aus/China trade.
