The Liberal Party celebrate the Labor Party’s first year in government with a faux merch store and an attempt at a funny (yes, I subscribe to the Liberal Party newsletter):

Hello my loyal constituents,

Can I just say, thank you for celebrating with me the first anniversary of my Government.

And you know something? As I travel the world, I passionately believe you got it right when you voted for me, for an education revolution, for new directions, new leadership, fresh ideas, fresh thinking, and several of my other cliches.

What are some of my favourite achievements? The bottom line is this:

Hosting the 2020 Summit, starring Cate and 999 other “average” Australians – I found it so rewarding that I took decisive action and announced at least 168 more reviews, committees and inquiries.

On the question of taxpayer-funded travel, I’m lapping it up. In just 12 months I’ve spent the equivalent of almost two months overseas!

Fresh ideas like our unlimited bank guarantee, and telling those who consequently can’t access their non-bank savings to “go to Centrelink”.

My challenge to you is this: visit my memorabilia website at www.RUDDSHOP.com (where the buck really does stop with me) and show your heart-felt appreciation for 12 long months of Labor.

Your Dear Leader,

“

…look at his face to see the guy is on something and it not fresh air. The guys is a grub. Someone needs to take him this sorry boy aside and teach him some etiquette. He is your A typical Labor peasant raised onder the Keating years of bad manners and disrespect. There are many such people like you In Australia have degraded the values of Australia. Like the Labor party of Australia who are the laughing stock in Asia.

I also think a lot of people (I trust many of them female) will take exception to his remarks.
