I suspect he would be happier remaining the "shock jock". So his list ranking may be on the cusp of becoming a member of a new government, as opposed to a nice job with no power and too much work to make it worthwhile.

Just look at the unprecedented vilification of Corbyn in the UK from even so called progressive papers. In the last few years hey have dispensed with any pretence that they speak truth to power and in many ways they didnt have to worry. The masses are too dim/disengaged to bother anymore. Look at how the narrative of fake news around Trump disappears bit by bit as the dimwit morphs into what the neoliberal war establishment want him to be.Andrew Nicholsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753486518085091399.post-30560691467847266222017-05-05T11:23:07.796+12:002017-05-05T11:23:07.796+12:00Well written and on the button!Well written and on the button!peteswriteplacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04474922953916383101noreply@blogger.com
