Default Former Australian Leader Tony Abbot is now helping UK trade
He has infact, been invited to assist
The UK Board of Trade.


https://news.sky.com/story/tony-abbo...ments-12063607

[Former Australian prime minister Tony Abbott has been handed
a top job advising the UK government on trade - despite a string
of allegedly homophobic and sexist comments.]



Now Look ignore his old comments
he will be great to get our International Trade boosted.

There was a good one about him breaking a marble table during a party. I cannot remember the details, but the story was hilarious for some reason.

Absolutely disgraceful.
No other words to describe the man or this appointment either.

...I didn’t realise that non ‘lefty’ people were in support of values such as inequality/sexism and prejudices of race and sexuality...I guess though that ‘defies backlash’ makes him a hero and a fighter and detracts from the low values he shares also.../...get Brexit done, Boris....cos Brexit is only for the Brexiters and not for the whole of the U.K.../...those pesky ‘lefties’....

I will praise him and perhaps kneel down for him in a few years, if my tax bill comes down.

...he supports his sister/family member whose sexuality is of a society section which is often widely marginalised...but he still publicly shows prejudice to that same society section...he’s ‘fine with her’ because he’s her brother and she obviously, equally supports him personally...but it doesn’t make all of his bigotry any less shabby in his character and any more revealing as to ‘who Tony Abbott is’...but that’s cool because it was never about ‘making Britain Great again’...Britain’s ‘greatness’ was sacrificed long ago in favour of self gain for the chosen few...

...I mean, with respect, Arista...he was always ‘fine’ with you, was he not...regardless of his prejudices and bigotry because he was all about the ‘Trade Deal’...so what does it matter what a close family member’s personal thoughts are or that he hasn’t cast her out into the wilderness....why is that relevant...

This is indefensible as to this appointment.

It's another indication of the real thoughts likely too and extremely questionable judgement of Johnson too.

Who by his judgements and the odd times now he lets slip his real thinking, is even further discrediting the office of Prime Minister in the UK.

This man should never have even been considered for this post, never mind given it.
These are the people this PM is happy to be associated with..
Well that speaks volumes about him too.

Even his own party got rid of Abbott even while he was PM of Australia.

This appointment is simply wholly wrong and shows our PM just refuses to really listen and think on what's really right.
