An exclusive report in the Weekend Australian has revealed former Opposition Leader Bill Shorten pleaded with the Labor Party to help him soften his image, during the May Federal election campaign.
A review of the party's unexpected loss found its campaign failed because or Mr Shorten's unpopularity and its messages failed to get through. The ALP received a primary vote of 33.3 per cent nationally and performed particularly poorly in Queensland and Western Australia. Image: News Corp Australia

billshortenmp .. load of rubbish...what exactly could have the Labor Party done to 'soften his image' and why would Shorten 'plead' in the first place? Too much blame has been laid at Shorten's 'unpopular' feet. Labor lost because they had too many radical policies affecting too many people.
billshortenmp Why aren’t the media questioning ScottMorrisonMP about Hill song Founder, Himpissing his pants in Fiji, Inability to run this country & the many other stupid decisions he has made that call i to question his leadership?
billshortenmp Meanwhile after 6 years of water policy and infrastructure neglect inaction mismanagement incompetence and failures the Coalition government tell Australian farmers to just “sell your farms...” presumptive the LNP’s wealthy mining foreign corporations and Chinesmates on the cheap
billshortenmp Meanwhile the treasonous looking LNP approves a Chinese communist party affiliated partnership for a private airport and pilot training facility in Australia..AGAINST THE ADVICE AND WARNINGS OF OUR SECURITY SERVICES WHO CONSIDER IT A NATIONAL SECURITY THREAT..
billshortenmp Meanwhile the Coalition government’s inaction neglect mismanagement incompetence and failures on energy and water policy and infrastructure will see rivers and towns run dry and major blackouts this summer..and A MASSIVE $400 ELECTRICITY PRICE INCREASE THIS YEAR ALONE
billshortenmp Of coarse they did it was labor and their supporters who ripped themselves and each other apart. Still in denial blaming everyone else. If there was a theme song for this group it would be queens, I want it all and I want it now!

billshortenmp Shorten pairing up with Keneally didn`t help his image
