What a ridiculous post Ben Bradley. Rudd's remark about MT being a lefty was his pathetic failed attempt at a joke on Q&A.
Rudd is a midget beside MT's towering intellect, energy and enterprise. Apart from the economically rational ETS (that even Howard supported) the only thing they have in common is support for a Republic,but only MT had the guts energy and enterprise to DO anything about it!
MT made his fortune from scratch in law and business. To describe him as a socialist is ridiculous. Therese Rein made her fortune by securing Govt. contracts from mainly friendly left-leaning Governments notably here in Australia and in the UK.
