I could look like him.
Pocock represents an inconvenient truth for Australia’s political class regarding achievement, ambition, and leadership.
That much is true.
These bozo political class that have never worked in the real world should not be allowed to make laws until they have at least been on more than the year 10 one week of work experience program.
Pocock as Prime Minister and Hastie as Leader of the Opposition. I’d like to see that!
Need to become a republic so we can elect president pocock
He’s the only one that talks sense. He would win on mining and gas taxes alone
Anyone else finding these satire website just bit to much and pretty low effort.
Chatgpt could write these articles. I don’t know why people enjoy them.
The guy is a nerd and a jock. Wasn’t he doing some special law school overseas when they asked him back for Australian rugby world cup??
Pretty boss to be like ‘oh ok sure I can come back from studies and just be better than every other flanker who’s actually still playing.’
Like the Arnie character from Twins lol
Pockock reminds me of Ricky Muir a bit.
Unexpectedly rational guy who seems to be down to earth and reasonable and someone I actually would want to have a beer with.
Since Clive Palmer left he is now the best looking dude in the parliament.
Dude looks like he’s inflated its crazy.
I’ll get downvoted to hell for this because everyone seems to love him to death (it’s the abs). But the scuttlebut from those in the know is that he is an exceedingly affable person – but not the sharpest tool in the shed. Hard worker and sincerely invested in (usually excellent) causes. But certainly not a ‘nerd’ or policy wonk type by a long mile. That seems to accord with Hansard if you ever have the delight of needing to trawl through umpteen pages of it.
That may be a good thing, I make no value judgements. Just passing on some reliable goss about a pollie in my possession!
What happens if someone asks him in question time if he’s natty?
Labour is doing a fine job at ruining all good faith voters had at the previous election.
Headline written by somebody who never heard that *”Rugby is a hooligan’s game played by gentlemen”* (usually attributed to Churchill)
Rugby players are highly likely to have Uni degrees – much more likely than League players
I know it’s a joke article, but it hits closer to home than most people might expect. I’m pretty nerdy (sci-fi, D&D, books) but I’ve always been athletic and played sport, gone to the gym etc etc. That combination apparently causes some resentment amongst people that live completely opposite lives to that.
Early on I learned not to mention going to the gym or something as mundane as going to a nightclub with another group of friends, around my gamer crew. Casual mentions would get smug responses or performative eye rolls, like I was rubbing it in. It’s a strange thing to actively hide parts of your life just to avoid people resenting you for a perceived idea that I’m somehow rubbing it in their faces.
Pocock is a legend – good on him for calling out all the politicians / corruption, even at his own personal risk.
He deserves the support of the Australian public
Jocks are underpants.
“With a cabinet made up of career politicians who have never worked outside of the Labor Party”
-And here lies the problem with modern politics for every party. Career politicians who haven’t really had much exposure to the real world in regards to average citizens.
He’s not just a career politician and has real life experience.
I rate him I don’t “like” all of his policies but they seem commonsense. When I graduated I maxed out a credit card with a low rate (lower than indexation) to pay my hecs and he wants some more sensibility on indexation and loan forgiveness. I could be all bitter about what I went through to pay mine off but if we all did this the world would be a pretty shitty place. He wants a better tax system on LNG. He works out at parks and my local gym which is the same one everyone else uses (honestly even I’m debating quitting that one due to machine availability) so I think he’s a pretty down to earth guy
