        Oh FFS, is this a moan because he is a republican, a former labor leader or because of the ridiculousness of the office of Governorships?! I doubt the Oz gives 2 shits about the latter.

        He seems to get one well-paid gig after another, much like Peter Beattie.

        Totally true; "State'sRights" was a carryover from early federation. The whole level of state government and administration should be eliminated. Let's start with the Governors!!

        What's Joe Hockey getting as US Ambassador? What are all the other former LNP politicians getting when they've landed jobs outside of Parliament?

        What a beat-up! Dirt Dept couldn't find anything on Kim Beazley, so came up with this nonsense. Malcolm Turnbull and many other MPs are Republican too. Sack all Republicans, is this what you are saying?

        Wouldn’t it save a lot of money if we scrapped the role of state Governors and just allowed the Governor General to fill the role for each state.

        Snout in the trough....disgusting. A true Republican would have politely refused the job.
