Conservative Party leader Cory Bernardi says the reason Scott Morrison and the Coalition won last Saturday's federal election was clearly that enough Australian voters had the common sense to reject Labor's economy-wrecking, climate change alarmist, socialist agenda.
The Australian's The Mocker, has another reason Prime Minister Morrison should be thankful and postulated that the following could be part of his victory speech you never got to hear:
"Friends, I have given due credit to those in the Coalition camp who helped return us to government. Now I intend acknowledging the efforts of those outside the tent who did the same, albeit inadvertently.
"First and foremost, Bill Shorten. Thank you for your incessant and snide references to the 'top end of town'. You reinforced the message the Labor Party philosophy of the twenty-first century is one of envy and resentment when it comes to private enterprise and self-sufficiency. Remember last year when you boasted to Arnold Schwarzenegger "I'm gonna be the next Prime Minister of Australia"? To quote The Terminator, "Get out".
