      Hopefully one day my prayers will be answered and a fight will erupt during question time, I’d love that smile I could imagine Joe Hockey would probably beat Wayne Swan when it comes to fisticuffs and would love to see Tony Abbott and Kevin Rudd duke it out.

      Woul dnot even be a contest between Rudd and Abbott. Wasn’t Abbott a talented boxer during his days at Oxford?

      Can’t wait for the day that the speaker is an independent ,and so stop all this BS wasting our taxpayers $‘s. At the moment I am ashamed that I am an Australian responsible for electing some of these idiots. A question asked is worthy of an honest answer.

      I loved Julias comment about the ‘same old deputy opposition leader’

      Ive always wanted to see the speaker get up out of his chair and grab that enormous, ornate mace he keeps at the end of the desk and rip into a few of the more idiotic members of the house.

      God, could you imagine Julie and Julia in a punch up? Christopher Pyne & Anthony Albanese as the under card. Now I’d pay to see that.

      How about tag teaming in a jelly pit!

      Was Julia Gillard being paid a word bonus each time the word “squealing” passed her lips ?  She came across as a proper nutter, bobbing up and down, shouting “squealing” !

      To top it all off, she didn’t answer the question re BER rorting !

      This is the alternative ALP leader ?  The next PM when Rudd is forced into retirement by his caucus ?  Bugger me !
