The Book of Paul

Presenting the one and only Mr Paul Keating – at his straight-shooting, scumbag-calling, merciless best.



Paul lets rip – on John Howard: “The little desiccated coconut is under pressure and he is attacking anything he can get his hands on.”



On Peter Costello: “The thing about poor old Costello is he is all tip and no iceberg.”



On John Hewson: “[His performance] is like being flogged with a warm lettuce.”



On Andrew Peacock: “...what we have here is an intellectual rust bucket.”



On Wilson Tuckey: “...you stupid foul-mouthed grub.”



On Tony Abbott: “If Tony Abbott ends up the prime minister of Australia, you’ve got to say, God help us.”



And that’s just a taste .
