When I was working on a cruise ship, a noticeboard poster said it all: “Please remember that Americans consider it acceptable to brag about their kids. Australians do not.”
He was a shit heap that ruined this country by introducing neoliberalism to our shores. He is directly responsible for the sad state of social affairs today.
I easily rank him worse than Howard, probably the most destructive PM ever imo.
He’s the guy that introduced Medicare, gave the federal government the ability to override states to protect World Heritage sites (and used those powers very prominently to protect the Franklin River—an event that notably can also be traced as the root of the Greens movement in this country, and while it would be giving him far to much credit to suggest he was responsible for that, it’s at least fair to say he was on the right side of history), and introduced workplace discrimination laws.
For sure he wasn’t perfect, and you can see where he introduced the same philosophy as British “new Labour”. But he didn’t embrace it as whole-heartedly as Keating, who I think really deserves the ire.
Are you 25? Hawke was a shit stain who drank beer and loved sport thus endearing him to many while he fucked over the rest while they were distracted with his circus act
He started the rot that got worse and worse from there with successive governments.
The only quasi “decent” PM we’ve had in my life was Gough Whitlam.
Oh I see. Thanks for the link! I didn’t realise that. I’ve not watched the show since I was a kid, and back then I don’t think I noticed people’s accents so much.
Australia had the original Orange man bad
We did have a bad orange man.
Sorry but isn’t that Bob Hawke? He was a great Prime Minister. Arguably our last great Prime Minister.

I’m confused. Isn’t Dragon Ball a Japanese franchise?
