The Parliamentary Secretary mentioned chutzpah a few times. As I said on Monday, my concern with the NBN is that we had a communications minister not focused on his day job. But, talking about chutzpah, we will start with a quick quiz. On 1 July 2013:

… Australians want an election so they can choose their government and prime minister.

As I talk with people … they are telling me that they feel let down and disappointed in a government that is focused on itself rather than the challenges facing the country …

Once again the faceless men of the Labor Party, rather than the people, have chosen a Prime Minister.

For too long, we've had chaos, division and dysfunction.

From The Telegraph yesterday:

Shrewd frontbench operators Simon Birmingham, Scott Ryan and Mitch Fifield had been appointed number-crunchers—

This was to do the PM in—

but the job was headed by Mr Turnbull's parliamentary secretary Paul Fletcher …

It is no wonder that on the Lower North Shore they are calling him 'faceless man Fletcher'. He looks in the mirror and there is nothing! Nothing!
