With the US result some friends and I have been discussing who the worst PM was/is.

    Oh yeah Fraser was definitely not good for the country. But compared to every Liberal who came after him?

      Fraser was uncompromising on things like refugees so he gets some credit for that as Howard/Fisher did for gun control. I don’t think Howard was proud of the children overboard stuff and not sure Fraser would have done that but he governed in different times. I think there is at least one PM since who had no moral compass at all, like clinically lacking, there was just the mask but I am struggling to remember anything he did.

      I had several disagreements with Mr Howard, but I believe that despite those differences, he really was trying to do the right thing for the country.

      I liked Mr Turnbull. In an alternate universe where he was permitted to actually lead the nation and wasn’t held down by his party, I think he could have been one of the great PMs.

      I didn’t have a lot of time for either Mr Abbott nor Mr Morrison. Both were bad for the country. I honestly can’t recall a redeeming thing to say about either of them.
