Presenting the one and only Mr Paul Keating at his straight shooting, scumbag-calling, merciless best.

Paul lets rip on John Howard: 'The little desiccated coconut is under pressure and he is attacking anything he can get his hands on.'

On Peter Costello: 'The thing about poor old Costello is he is all tip and no iceberg.'

On John Hewson: '[His performance] is like being flogged with a warm lettuce.'

On Andrew Peacock: '…what we have here is an intellectual rust bucket.'

On Wilson Tuckey: '…you stupid foul-mouthed grub.'

On Tony Abbott: 'If Tony Abbott ends up the prime minister of Australia, you've got to say, God help us.'

And that's just a taste . . .

While Paul Keating always has something interesting to say, this volume is full of very old, very well known quotes. There is also far too much that is not new or place into context. It was read in about 15 minutes so not really value for money!

a great P.M. Oh that he was around now to keep these pollies on their toes and to keep up laughing. A great read, a good laugh, and loads of good memories.
