others have pointed out, I am very curious to know who is paying for all this.

Probably a shelf company whose registered address is a post office box in a tax haven. Hopefully a judicial enquiry or royal commission could find out more.

That means the ALP backbench have an uncomfortable Xmas and New Year period coming up when they will be wondering whether they made the right decision earlier in the year!

No it doesn’t. If Rudd had been restored in February, he would by now be once again in full Captain Queeg mode and Labor would be back in the disaster zone. Plotting would be well advanced to depose him again in the new year. Whatever Labor’s troubles, the large majority of Caucus will not, under any circumstances, have Rudd back. If Gillard’s polling crashes and Caucus decides she has to go (which I don’t think will happen, but it might), they will turn to Shorten or Combet or Smith or Crean or Dick Adams or Beelzebub and all his hounds from Hell before they turn to Rudd. Rudd is finished. He is an ex-parrot. Can we get that through our heads?

New thread which it’s too hard for me to link to because I’m on a tablet.

The state breakdowns when next out will be interesting as to what role NSW is playing.

I can confirm that this is the last newspoll for the year.

Thanks.

Great result.

1 It ensures Abbott stays.

2 It’s a snapshot after a smear campaign.

3 There’s plenty to come to easily get back the last fortnight’s waverers.

4 It ensures Abbott stays:)
