Wow! Who told him to put on such patronising company PR voice. You're not trying to sell a fuckin concept to the country mate, your meant to be levelling with the country about the seriousness of the crisis. Speaking to everyone like they're children won't help, even of the opposition have been actinglike a bunch of turkeys over this all day.

    He's always been like this. You can hear it whenever he has to answer questions he doesn't like. Always sounds like "I'm the boss, don't bother me".

    He gained a lot of social capital in opposition by coming across as a humanist with his childhood story, and campaigning for increasing social welfare payments. Now he seems like the archetypal "boomer" who got what they needed and pulled up the ladder. (I know not all boomers are like this, but we've all met one of them).
