Re your post which included; "Fraser and Whitlam are disgraces. I wouldn't take notice of a thing either of them says. ..."
You are of course entitled to your opinion and I respect your right to express it.
However, your opinion does not rule invalid statements made about Tony Abbott by our past PMs and those who so aspired until they retract or amend them.
On that basis Abbott has just one eminent person unequivocally in his corner; our most profligate PM in history and his mentor no less!
Some people would take the comments of such eminent Austrlains on board as constructive criticism rather than hiding behind skirts, releasing speeches in London and engagin in denial. Of course that's not in Abbott's DNA.
