Politicians have some issues

'Convoy of no confidence' against Gillard government

Australian Greens leader Bob Brown said the convoy seemed "like a bit of a flop" adding for every truck that had turned up another five had stayed away.

"It hasn't blockaded anything," he told reporters.

"But it has got the moaners' brigade in town to moan about everything in general and nothing in particular."

Senator Brown said the low numbers were a reflection on Mr Abbott.

"This is Tony Abbott's flop, but they're being led on by him because he wants an election. That's why the truckies are in town."

The protesters did not have any common thread of complaint, Senator Brown said.

"It's just a general smorgasbord of whingers."

So i was reading this today and i have to say ive never seen a more frustrating comment from a politician (and ive lived in nsw all my life )
After all the recent job cuts by manufacturing and so forth and then to come out and say that a protest about the incompetence of the government is just whingeing is plain stupid
Just wish Mr Brown would go out and get a job for a year and then see how he likes when hes told sorry bud we dont need you, have fun finding a new job
