Malcolm Turnbull’s formidable run of polling continues with the latest automated phone poll by ReachTEL for the Seven Network, which has the Coalition lead out to 55-45 – up from 53-47 at the previous poll on October 22, and 50-50 at a poll conducted the night after the leadership change on September 15. On the primary vote, the Coalition is up from 46.% to 48.8%, Labor is down from 33.0% to 31.1%, and the Greens are down from 11.3% to 11.2%.
Malcolm Turnbull leads 71.3-28.7 on ReachTEL’s all-or-nothing preferred prime minister measure, up from 68.9-31.1. A question on whether respondents felt safer from terrorism under Malcolm Turnbull or Tony Abbott breaks 74-26 to Turbull. And there are also the usual five-point scale leadership satisfaction ratings, which have Turnbull up slightly and Shorten down slightly, which you can read in greater detail here. The poll was conducted last night, from a sample of 3144.

😆 are back 🙂
His Honour asks Hart the killer question (more of a comment actually) that if women had been given a more prominent role in the management of the Catholic Church at the top levels the child abuses would not have been allowed to go on for so long.

You called him gone six months ago and it was abbott who got rolled.
Nothing wrong in what I said.

I find that the height of irony — no, bare-faced arrogance, after the attacks on Slipper, Thomson and Gillard.

In other words typical Pyne.
BK spot on.
I think Pell and Hart have met their match with the no nonsense approach from Counsel Assisting and the Commission
Hart and Pell will be like naughty cats or dogs at the end of this week… slinking away with their tales between their legs.
“God” can’t help them now…
[In other words typical Pyne.]
If Pyne isn’t doing something to turn any decent person’s stomach simply wait for about 20 seconds. He’ll get there soon enough.

[I think Pell and Hart have met their match with the no nonsense approach from Counsel Assisting and the Commission.]
Let’s hope so what an odious person Pell is.
There was a story of a remote polling booth in NSW where the officials estimated what the vote for the various parties would be and packed up early.
Labor objected when it found out what was happening.
Next election, properly conducted, the Labor vote fell sharply.
Hart doing his darnedest to protect Pell and His Honour is unimpressed.

Yes. Way to go. Even the morons of the mainstream media could not ignore that!

His Honour is showing his ignorance, IMO.
Nun run institutions in Ireland, for example, are legendary for their sheer viciousness towards children.
Forcing children to eat their own vomit showed that the nuns had scope for local initiatives:

I’m a cat. That’s how I roll. I do purring on occasion too. 😉
New thread.

Yes – good point.
Boerwar @ 1116,
Nun run institutions and schools in Australia gave the Irish a run for their money. In fact, many of them came from there to here. My mother went to a Catholic School run by The Little Sisters of Charity, a misnomer if ever there was one, and they used to rap her over the knuckles till they were red raw if she didn’t get her scales on the piano right.
