Tim_jbo Exactly 100% correct in your opinion of the narcissist Malcolm Turnbull. He is a the most disingenuous PM Australia has ever had, leading the coup against Tony Abbott. He is a Labor operative masquerading as a Liberal. How much does he have invested in the renewables industry?

Tim_jbo uspolitics

Tim_jbo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 nailed it Cory

Crickey one would think these are headlines..

It’s great that he is able to speak his mind at last

Derr ya think. The only sane thing you have said forever.

Absolutely

The weather is changing. That can't be denied so climate change can't be denied. You are the phony whipping up head in the sand mentality. Sky news what do you expect?

Turnbull has turned fool!

Couldn't agree more. What a poor excuse for a leader

You got that right Corey

He sure was

Turnbull was dishonest with the Australian public in 2015. ClimateChange

Yes. And Whatshisname Bailleau ( or Baallyhoo as his forebears in the officer corp were called) too. Obviously, being a toff means you will make a bad politician.

Haha. Sky News and their unwavering support for ScottyFromMarketting is amazing. At least he didn’t defraud the public by splashing out on sports facilities in Mosman.

OneNationPerth I think Rudd beat him for phonyness

Well, Malcolm was always driven by greatness...

He’s a true politician. And it was the Roman Philosopher that stated - “True Politicians aren’t born- They are Excreted.

I think moriscum is way as head on that poll.

whatever ..... 💤

And how is the opinion of Corey Bernardi a news story? Oh because Rupert said so. I get it.

Nope. That would be abject political failure corybernardi or scottyfromsportsmarketing would it not? auspol

Turnbull didn't deregister Australian conservatives. corybernardi

I think Cory B is being way too polite!

Tony Abbott, Malcolm Turnbull and scomo are phonies.

This fro a man who ran away and joined the Rupert Network circus! What a clown!

Was Kevin Rudd 2.0

Why is Cory even getting airspace?

He needs to look around himself more

Do you all sit around the office and take bets on who can write the biggest pile of shite and get people to believe it?

“Sky News contributor Cory Bernardi”. Thanks for the laugh I needed that.

Malcolm Turncoat!

The prime ministership was his birthright. You peasants that don’t understand this, well that’s your problem. Silver spoons and the top private education for Malsy babe.

Cory Bernardo is certainly one of Australian politics greatest phonics. If not the worst wasted space, the worst wasted noise. Cory, just fade away.

barry_bender5 He’s dead right! Why didn’t Turnbull come out with these views when he was PM? Power hungry. We are lucky he is gone.

It's a tight contest between him and Kevin 'I'm an economic conservative' Rudd.

What exactly qualifies Bestiality Bernadi to comment on politics? What did he achieve during his time on government welfare at Parliament House? auspol

And Libs votes him their leader. Twice. Bwahahaha Bwahahaha Bwahahaha

Cory Bernardi is a reason to not believe in free speech. A guy Tony Abott distanced himself from you for being too far to the right. What a goose

scottyfrommarketing is doing a bloody good job at impersonating a Primeminister if im being honest

Oh bless him ... he still thinks he’s relevant despite literally no one following him off the LNP wagon

And that comes from Cory

Takes one to know One?

Only politician who’s said what he believes not what he’s told and he’s the phoney 😂😂😂😂😂😂 you know it makes sense

True.

LyleShelton That’s coming from a bloke who used the party to get elected, bailed out & rode their financial coattails, then put on malcontents like you Lyle! TurnbullMalcolm sacrificed his principles to be part of a what is now a far right party! At least he admitted he was wrong! auspol

*phoney

That man has Kamikazed himself well and truly.

Yes... spot on

I agree but it's a bit hypocritical for corybernardi to say that considering he betrayed the Conservative Party he started. He started it, FUND RAISED, dissolved the party took the coin and deserted all the volunteers and returned to libs only to retire. Both are Phonys!

LyleShelton From the man who stabbed his voters and his party in the back to set up his own party. Then resigned as early as he could to get bumper superannuation.

You have an aye from me. A total crock is Mal. I can’t find anything that he’s touched that has helped anyone except Mal.

OH please. Consider the source. Cory Bernardi?

True

Another fruit loop joins the crew. Sky news a joke.

Not perhaps... it’s a definite!!!!!!

How very true

And Sky New and the Murdoch press are dangerous bullshit artists who should be hounded from this country

Cory said that? Wow

LyleShelton

Bernardi to be new Sky News presenter - so well credentialed - far right wing, denier, racist, sexist, abusive, nasty - perfect

Says the greatest phony we've seen in politics for a very long time.....what a 🤡🤡🤡🤡 Bernardi is. auspol MSM

Mr Turnbull did have a policy that everybody would except on climate the NEG

Hang on - that’s incorrect - green member for MELBOURNE is more so !!

Cory Bernardi accusing others of being a phoney, now that's rich.🤣🤣🤣

I don’t know... this clown in power at the moment is a d**k...

How true- a disgrace to be even mentioned as an ex PM. His arrogance is unbelievable

And his puppets taken over!

Yes. But Bernardi stole a Liberal senate spot, so...

Pretty rich coming from Cory

Coming from Cory; that means absolutely nothing at all...

Who?

LyleShelton Says the man who got into the senate on a Liberal ticket then quit the party only to try and crawl back when his own party failed.

Cory who?

Aren't they all though?

Haha, highly qualified to comment imo !!

Awww, bless. You got a job? ThisisNotJournalism

Couldn’t agree more. Thought he was ok when first took over but how wrong can you be.

LyleShelton Oh Cory shouldn't be so hard on himself. Surely he's the greatest phony politician of our time?

It is .

Cory won a senate spot as a Liberal and promptly absconded with it. Not sure he gets to call someone else a phony

I'd go gay for Cory!

Hahaha... As if they are any different! Please vote your preference for Criminal Group 1 or Criminal Group 2... either preference will get you a shiny new white collar criminal. Wake up Australia 🙄

Well stated Cory and more MPs should be saying this corybernardi

Corey's right, Turnbull is the ultimate phony. corybernardi

LyleShelton LOL, says Corgi, gets elected as a Liberal Senator for a 6 year term, then quits to form his own party, while keeping the Liberal seat! What a clown!

oh the irony, coming from someone who doesnt know if hes arthur or martha in terms of which party he belongs to

RMHogg Along with Rudd, Morrison ... a conga line.

LyleShelton His head reminds me of an Angry Bird, but his political stance reminds me of that American Mike Bloomberg - complete phoney.

Shit for brains more like it

Bernardi knows a lot about being phony

the biggest phony was TurnbullMalcolm

Spoken by a true phoney Cory Bernardi on a phoney network Sky News! At least Malcolm had an energy plan the NEG!

Turnbull helped dump Abbot and thus is a legend.

Bernardi should take a look in the mirror.

Most politicians will compete for the most phoniest record

Its news to obtain an opinion of a paid opinion provider?

LOL, nope, that is Scott Morrison.

I’m sure AustralianLabor believe he’s the best PM they’ve had this millennium!

Oy vey

That would be right Manipulated numbers to get rid of first term sitting safe seat member rather than win a seat Lost the republican election Lost the 2014 election Lost leadership twice Poor judgement - the Grech episode Shocking policy leadership Cory’s probably right

Haha. I love the humour that Twitter provides. Let's list Cory's contribution to society ... I'll start. 1. ....?

Bernardi would know a phony every time he looks in the mirror.

constan10101 Very true

A bit like every other LNP rorting criminal.

Said the source of funded lies ...

LyleShelton Keatings famous saying “ a conga line of suckholes” applies to this latest “ star” in the Sky News entertainment circus . Ladies and Gents Cory Bernadi failed Liberal Conservative Christian has joined with the other clowns under Ruperts BigTop . See him juggle lies and spin News

Well,that's not rocket scientist Cory

Pot meet kettle. Bernardi is a joke.

Self projection from Cory.

So true Corey. Turnbullshit

I can only assume that corybernardi doesn't have ready access to mirrors (plausible), or he can't see his reflection because he's a parasitic vampire (also plausible).

Not perhaps, he is...

LyleShelton Oh FFS. Cory is an idiot.

And he'd know.

LyleShelton Oh look.... Corgi the “contributor”

Good nomination but KRudd is way bigger.

deejayqf 'You bad!' 'No, you bad!' 'I said it first...' 'Mum!' LNPCrimeFamily auspol

Have you looked in the mirror lately corybernardi

Phony politicians, phony 'news' organizations.....meh, what else is new?

At the risk of sounding twee: it does take one to know one

Actually Cory Bernardi was the phoney. And a total washout .

Speaking of phony, how did the Australian Conservatives go Cory? Seriously Skynews were there no barrels left scrape? This political dud is your latest 'contributor' no wonder News Corp is going broke.

The story would be far more accurate if you delete the word 'perhaps'.

That’s a bit rich coming from him. A bit of projection going on there... The biggest PHONy is obvious.

jimx2460 You are to polite Cory.

Cory Bernardi is the poster boy for anal retentiveness. He is the self-appointed judge, jury, and executioner of all those who don't subscribe to his extreme conservative, Christian, right-wing PoV. If he criticises someone, that person ought to consider it a huge compliment.

That’s funny coming from Cory.

He's right

You lost me with the name Cory Bernardi

Contributor? What happened? Cant pay his bills no more?

GayeCameronNSW

The Liberal party is the “greatest phoney” in political history, pulling the wool over voters eyes. The most corrupt government in Australian history.

I think that honour would go to the K.Rudd and Gillard fiasco. The Monopoly Man would have to come in second. I don't think too many believed all of Johnny Howard's irregular double speak.

I really enjoy before 6pm .... after that, it’s decked with failed politicians - Bernadi, CampbellNewman and adamgiles. The last two are especially irritating when you take into account they were both removed after one term. What sort of authority do they have?

Cory Barnyardy can talk? Liberal party/no longer Liberal party/now news hack? Wow.

failed republican movement leader, failed PM. never seen a bigger sook in my life.

Also, Cory Bernadi... Lol 🐀 auspol

NZStill If you are looking for phoney's, look across the ditch at the PM there. The place is slowly sliding down into communisim under her guidance.

You employed Cory Bernardi? 😂 😂 😂

Cut and Run Bernardi. When the going gets tough Bernardi gets going, as far away and as quickly as possible. Apparently a man of conviction.

Well Cory, we've had our moments, but never ever truer words spoken.

On the money Honey😂👏

Yes Cory Bernadi you are not wrong he speaks with fork tongue...

Cory Bernadi is 💯% spot on.

Apart from Cory Bernadi

MOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!...........BAAAAAAAAAH!! Onya Cory!!

jimx2460

Says Murdock's

And Cory Bernardi is correct. Turnbull is a resentful, vindictive dingo.

Agree 100%, the man was a Greenie & smart enough to know he wouldn’t go far raising that flag so worked out if he joined the Libs he could buy his way to the top which he did. Now he is reaping the benefits of a scheme he introduced as PM, Government subsidies on Wind Farms.

As opposed to Cory who duped his own constituents and tried to start his own party after running as a lib

From Cory Bernardi via Sky News..... Turnbull just went up in my estimations, he must be doing something right.

Sky News Contributor Cory Bernardi 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

well well THATS THE POT CALLING THE KETTLE BLACK

😂🤣😂Cory the ‘contributor’ 🤣😃😂

From a senator who effed over his own party to start his own. Only to resign when he realised he'd become irrelevant.

Is a corrupt politicians and thief like corybernardi anyone judge... me thinks not

Cory 'Who' said what?

Phony? You selfish hard right hacks made his job impossible Bernardi.

Lol, failed politician, calls another one names.

He's got nothing on Australia's greatest dud PM the CrimeMinister ScottyfromMarketing and LiarFromTheShire ScottMorrisonMP auspol !

You mean ScottMorrisonMP !!!!

Come on old boy, still waiting for you to tell us how much investments do you have in the renewable sector

Best Labor Leader in recent times

Cory makes a pretty fair comment. Some who disagree will get disagreeable and pile on though

Malcolm Turnbull & Al Gore are nothing but money making Scam artists to line their own pockets.

Is that the same bloke who took the Libs Number 1 slot in the Senate for a six year term then bailed straight after the election? That's quite some chutzpah

What an embarrasment he is, he is the definition of hypocrisy!!

This coming from Cory😂😂
