        You can’t fool all of the people. Barnaby Joyce is an Australian in every sense of the word. And for all of those bitter lefties the people have voted.

        It had nothing to do with "lefties" mate. It had to do with the law. Pull your head in.

        What a shame New England is so undiscerning and keen to re-elect a boozy "constitutional fraudster" with two-faced "family values" who is crap at his day job and has a bad habit of wasting taxpayers' money. Never mind.. he's returning to a sinking Coalition ship anyway.

        Wow - only in Australia can you lie on your election documentation, be a criminal & be rewarded. New England you continue your great tradition of being convicts.

        No - just a reflection on how low one can go in Australia and be rewarded. Says much about what these people hold important. If politicians can lie and be rewarded then we need a collective hard look at ourselves.

        The big story here is why? Barnaby has authenticity and credibility, something sorely lacking in most of our MPs at all levels these days.

        If Joyce was a Centrelink recipient he'd either have to repay the millions he illegally claimed in wages and expense or he'd be jailed.pic.twitter.com/O65GbiNuEY
