Howard’s brief: how can we make them like us?

John Howard’s cabinet has a new modus operandi. Regular business is dealt with briefly, sometimes between just the Prime Minister and the relevant minister. The rest of the time is spent on political discussion.

(Note: I don’t like John Howard. I’ve never liked John Howard. He has some stuff he does well, but overall, I think he’s a bigoted, self-justified, Baby Boomer who wouldn’t apologise if he shot God in the foot. I’m gratified to see that the Australian public is finally becoming as disenchanted with him as I’ve been for so long.)
