Comments by "TJ Marx" (@tjmarx) on "The liveliest politics: Australia or UK? - BBC News" video.

  1. Let's not forget Hockey's antics. Like the time when in opposition he brought in the giant cardboard credit card and went off on Swan about the debt Labor were racking up. Or the time Hockey brought in a giant faux blank cheque from the treasury and asked Swan, if he's going on a spending spree anyway could Hockey get some extra money too? It's weird that this video started with one of the least rowdy interactions involving Keating or Howard. Let's not forget the one liners and quick wit Hawk and Keating were both know for. Also seems weird they compared 1994 Australia directly to Cameron in 2015. Would have been nice to have seen some John Major era British politics. If we want to go back a bit further Holt, Whitlam and Fraser all presided over very entertaining cabinets in Australia. Alas, these days of entertaining question time are no more. Instead we get scomo weeping and apologizing every 5 minutes, and Albanese scuttling around like the equally spineless crustacean he is.
