Aus PM best to worst, page-28

Fraser far above Abbott....

fair cop moonie, its your OP and your appreciation of each.

1. Hawke - Hawke and Gillard rank equal imo.... how much more she would have achieved had she been able to remain PM.
2. Gillard - Hawke had 10 years to achieve and results were mixed. Gillard had less than 3 years and achieved more important stuff
3. Howard - mixed but some really major achievements and paid down debt to set up Aus to manage GFC better.
4. Menzies - Big Picture economics, broadened social supports, enabled a greater Aus
5. Keating - very mixed successes and failures
6. Rudd - negatives, divisive, micro-managing, bullying, quit after CPRS failure. positives GFC management.
7. Turnbull - failed leadership 1.01
8. Holt - unfortunately too short to do much but held much promise
9. Gorton/McMahon - joint failures but did not do much harm
10. Abbott - seriously damaged our economy and international standing, especially in science and education
11. Morrison - abject failure at all levels,
