Gotta love Keating's one liners.

By the way what has happened with Tony's hair lately?

Is it a brown hair piece?
Most mainstream media, and all social media, delight in swiping at Abbott, but he quite rightly doesn't give a stuff, it's just not that important.
He does a lot of good work with indigenous people, and he is introducing a visionary policy with the paid parental leave scheme.
He and Joe Hockey are getting the finances/economy back on track, and optimising national security.
The media can continue to disappear up its own backside, as it has done in recent years, for all he cares.
Abbott, just like many others, has seen a decline in Australia in recent times, and he's doing something about it.

Nevertheless, Joe Hockey will be the next Liberal leader midway through the second term of Liberal government.
He'll take over from Abbott in an amicable, pre-arranged succession. Hockey is growing in political stature with every speech & interview he makes.
This is now the natural order of things.
