The hypocrisy is breathtaking. Peter Costello, now a "respected commentator," laments that Australia hasn't balanced a budget for 15 years.
But who laid the foundation for that structural deficit? Costello and John Howard. They squandered a once-in-a-generation mining boom and the proceeds from selling our public assets.
Instead of a sovereign wealth fund like Norway's to secure our future, they gave it away in permanent tax cuts and middle-class welfare. They sold gold at the bottom of the market. They left us vulnerable to the next crisis.
Now he lectures us on fiscal responsibility? The architect is blaming the builders.#AusPol #PeterCostello #HowardGovernment #MiningTax #NorwayGotItRight #AustralianEconomy #Hypocrite

Nine board chairman Peter Costello resigns after reportedly assaulting a journalist
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-06-09/nine-board-chairman-peter-costello-resigns/103957314Peter Costello always was a bully, and although not known for being a physically abusive thug, he sure was an entitled piece of shit.
As the Federal Treasurer during the disastrous years of John Howard being Prime Minister, Peter Costello displayed an aptitude for class-based disdain for those he thought were beneath him.
After retiring from politics, he was the recipient of a generous nepo-hire as Chairman of the Board at the Nine Entertainment media empire, where he continued to push his RWNJ agenda.
Good riddance and fuck off, Peter Costello. -

Fvcking #PeterCostello is as bad as #Murdoch! I'm watching local #Channel9 News - #NBN up here & instead of asking/interviewing the Govt Media Minister they have that stupid Patterson from #Opposition - the #LiarNastyPricks. They always do it. It's as if there's not an #ALP Govt.
