RitaPanahi “Australia’s election channel” more like the “LNP’s election channel” - shamelessly partisan

RitaPanahi Haha. Dutton is about as popular as a fart in a space suit wherever he goes. You're living on another planet.

RitaPanahi Good grief.

RitaPanahi If Dutton is such a fine performer, why has he not been able to build a loyal personal following in Dickson? Why would the Liberal party gift him a safe seat when he has had 18 years to cement his position in one electorate and apparently failed to do so?

RitaPanahi something is deeply wrong with this lady and that nincompoop rowan.

RitaPanahi 🤣🤣🤣

RitaPanahi Rita is right up there with Rowan Dean. Both are extremely fortunate to be employed at all.

RitaPanahi Tell me again...who is she?

RitaPanahi 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡 Rita speaks and IQs commit suicide all overtge country

RitaPanahi Odds are that he will take the money and run, Rita the Delusional Panahi. Check his margin and as he is pre 2004, he will pick up a packet of super. His huge ego will not allow him to sit on the opposition back bench as what’s left of his party loath him.

RitaPanahi Fuck no! On all counts...(and yes, I live in Moncrieff)

RitaPanahi 😂😂😂

RitaPanahi hypocrite

RitaPanahi Why would anyone want that corrupt scum as their member. The only place 🥔 deserves to go it The Hague auspol

RitaPanahi

RitaPanahi Only if they were totally depraved!

RitaPanahi Is that mesh fence to keep the sane out or the insane in?

RitaPanahi Raising yourself on your own petard, Rita. What a silly gig you have.

RitaPanahi I would rather gouge my eyes out than watch this or anything else on Sky. The clips I see on Twitter disgust me. How did your shitshow get to pollute our broadcasts?

RitaPanahi Rita, I bet the overwhelming number of punters are yelling at you RIGHT NOW, Whatever drugs you're on, STOP TAKING THEM! You're talking gibberish. Everyone is laughing AT you. Poor darling.

RitaPanahi Dutton is a cruel, corrupt little man, and as for wanting him, even his own party got together to make sure he didn't win the leadership ballot. Even the Libs don't want him.

RitaPanahi Your so out of touch, you should factcheck your statements b4 issuing

RitaPanahi 😂😂😂😂

RitaPanahi Such a good performer that he knows he’s losing his seat so would like a nice safe one. ‘Great performer’ my arse 🤣🤣🤣

RitaPanahi People in Moncrieff...

RitaPanahi 😂

RitaPanahi back to the caves for you

RitaPanahi Panahi is high high high on the hallucinogenics Someone wrap her up & put her in a rubber room

RitaPanahi Well if you bet your house on that you’ll soon be sleeping on cement in an alcove in the CBD. anotherjournooutoftouch

RitaPanahi He can run, but he can't hide.

RitaPanahi Why is it that Sky News is filled with misfits like Rita, Piers Akerman, rowandean, chriskkenny, Paul Murray etc?

RitaPanahi What planet is she occupying ?

RitaPanahi Who is this idiot?

RitaPanahi Aarrhh! I don’t think so!!! How pathetic, the guy is on the nose in his current electorate so you move him to another one. Auspol

RitaPanahi YES. Lefty offendotrons go hysterical again - the same people who were crowing that Hillary would win the WH in 2016. My beef with Dutton is that he allowed an extremist Egyptian imam into Aus, while blocking Milo and potentially Tommy Robinson. Dutton is too left-wing and soft.

RitaPanahi Spot on Rita, if I was in Moncrieff I'd vote for him... Real warrior for us forgotten people.

RitaPanahi That is just the most disgusting fake news nonsense I’ve heard Rita. You are a great performance artist

RitaPanahi Yes, voters love nothing more than an outside candidate being parachuted in. Panahi has zero political nous. auspol

RitaPanahi Little do you Know,Rita🤔😏🙄

RitaPanahi And what planet did you say you were reporting from. ? You've just gotta be joking... And who, apart from him of course, says he is one of the top performers.

RitaPanahi Even the Devil has to bow down to Dutton's evil.

RitaPanahi Riiiight... drugcheckRita

RitaPanahi Live at the Apollo. RitaPanahi

RitaPanahi Rita, you do realize that Murdoch is using you as a token in his network? Why did you sell your soul?

RitaPanahi And right there RitaPanahi proves what everyone honest & sane has always known... LNP and their fawning lovers are always & completely about the $money$! That is the ONLY area Dutton has been a top performer! Conning the gullible morons & selling services to vested interests.👎🏾

RitaPanahi the people of moncrieff are not stupid. no one wants dutton

RitaPanahi LOL is she on ice?

RitaPanahi Nah, dude's right up there with the most hated men in Australia.

RitaPanahi

RitaPanahi The least popular politician in Australia. Yeah they would be stoked a psychopath represents them

RitaPanahi Bring it on. Being a voter in Moncrieff I could not think of a better member to follow Steve.

RitaPanahi Anything by sky news is highly suspect....often the poisonous agenda of murdoch is on display. Ritas views are irrelevant !

RitaPanahi whats the name of this world this precious thing lives in?

RitaPanahi Oh Rita, no no no !

RitaPanahi PS. Can someone ask Punahni's make up artist to tone down the cheeks and eyebrows please? She looks like a clown. Oh wait....

RitaPanahi Nothing like having a failed pm aspirant as your local mp in opposition. That is until the Federal ICAC is set up.

RitaPanahi Message from Montcrieff - you don't know what you are talking about. The good people of Montcrieff are recoiling in horror at the thought.

RitaPanahi I know the good ppl of Dickson will be happy to be rid of him.

RitaPanahi The LIBs moved Dutton to a 'safe' seat once before....and he lost the election. Bring it on.

RitaPanahi 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

RitaPanahi If he's so good then his current electorate will vote for him.

RitaPanahi go on then go and place a bet on Dutton put your $$ where your mouth is auspol Moncrieff

RitaPanahi Those eyebrows are reflecting her crazy.

RitaPanahi If he's a top performer why would he be moving electorates?

RitaPanahi Good grief what an utter tool this woman is.

RitaPanahi He’s ruled it out.

RitaPanahi Dutton is a national and international disgrace

RitaPanahi Pleeeze! He’s better off going to the ICC if you care to investigate

RitaPanahi I call bullshit.

RitaPanahi I'll take that bet!

RitaPanahi I live in the Moncrieff electorate. Bullshit.

RitaPanahi Rita Panahi: Attempting to spread lyme disease by transfer of parasite.

RitaPanahi 😂😂😂😂

RitaPanahi

RitaPanahi

RitaPanahi Top performer? Talking in tongues today! Nutter!

RitaPanahi Top performers🤣🤣🤣

RitaPanahi Does RitaPanahi live in Moncrieff? Has she asked the people in that electorate whether they like Peter Dutton? Unlikely, just another fantasy from a right winger

RitaPanahi Fruit loop!

RitaPanahi Those eyebrows I can’t look away

RitaPanahi Lol.

826Maureen RitaPanahi lol. Desperate times.

RitaPanahi Rita you are so right I am amazed about the way Mr Dutton is criticised and demonised I can only assume that people are furious about the fact that he was instrumental in Mr Turnbull‘s downfall

RitaPanahi Skynews presenters are very delusional closer to the election people want change because this mob has performance is shit at least labour not falling apart like liberals nationals

RitaPanahi Good to see so many lefties following the Sky News Australia feed.

RitaPanahi Absolutely Rita. As the Gold coast is the spiv and shyster capital of the world, our Pete would fit in so well. A former crooked cop, and now a crooked pollie and locker upper of innocent people in gulags. No finer chap in the nation for the folk of moncrief.😀

RitaPanahi Oh the ratio. Rita, read the room... You and Bolt...

RitaPanahi Good grief Moncrieff! auspol

RitaPanahi This is right up there with the time she suggested at last years Tiges v Pies prelim, the AFL should bring in strawberries and Ice cream and add a bit of Wimbledon flair to the game in support of strawberry farmers. Yeah cos Tennis and Footy are the same...what a bimbo

RitaPanahi

RitaPanahi Is that where he’s seeking asylum.

RitaPanahi Rita the bullshit eater.

RitaPanahi

RitaPanahi Oh dear, is this lady a comedian, mad, or what!? Moncrieff have voted Liberal in the past, but even they would baulk at having Despicable Dutton as their MP.

RitaPanahi Top performers? Really? Can you rationally explain that remark with facts?

RitaPanahi Seems Dutton would show Australians he's a coward by demonstrating he's not capable of fending off a challenge if he choses to hide in a supposedly safe Liberal seat.

RitaPanahi The good folk of Moncrieff need to know that he has done very little for Dickson his current electorate. But yeah they can have him. Mind you his office is like a prison, need more clearance than Jared Kushner needed for the white house.

RitaPanahi The voice of Murdoch via yet another of his minions.

RitaPanahi What you smoking...Rita?

RitaPanahi Can someone tell Rita to fuck off for me? She has me blocked. Thanks.

RitaPanahi The inanity.

RitaPanahi It won't work Rita, eventually ppl wise up to moving scum around. Trust me I know... aUsPoL

RitaPanahi Mutton?!!! Rit’s? Can you get me a pound of the Stuff you’re using?

RitaPanahi Who the Fuch is this?

RitaPanahi Yeah, I bet.

RitaPanahi Just like a reputable news show would love to take on a balanced, top level journo like Rita Panahi...

RitaPanahi

RitaPanahi

RitaPanahi Rita loves crack Duttons

RitaPanahi Oh he’s performed alright, and the majority of his reviews sucked.

RitaPanahi PeterDutton_MP is the root cause of cancer within the liberal party. No place for evil conservatives and far left nutbags in modern Australia.

RitaPanahi Why are you reading this out Rita? Who wrote it for you? I know, it is your audition for comedy. 😂😂

RitaPanahi I would take that bet.

RitaPanahi Lol, so even Rita reckons Dutton’s chances of surviving the purge are slim in Dickson

RitaPanahi Stop snorting the AJAX Rita. 😂

RitaPanahi Wot you smokin now Rits🤣

RitaPanahi

RitaPanahi As long as they are white, male, and don’t come from somewhere else. Unless they are Au Pairs with the wrong visas. They’re ok.

RitaPanahi Further proof Sky is actually a parallel universe.

RitaPanahi Yeah anal receptive

RitaPanahi Is this meant to be comedy? Seriously warped stuff.

RitaPanahi Dutton is probably the least human politician in Parliament. And he is far from being one of the government's top performers. Otherwise why wouldn't he test his citizenship through the High Court?

RitaPanahi Rita Rita Rita. Your talking about a man who started a coup to get rid of a sitting prime minister and thought he was over the line. I say started as he wasn’t smart enough to get the job done oops. He’s an ass clown.

RitaPanahi The reincarnation of Joseph Goebbels is one of the government's 'top performers'? You sure about that?

RitaPanahi I'll agree on one point: Peter Dutton is a member.

RitaPanahi Move him and let get up waste more money.

RitaPanahi If the gutless Herr Dutton goes there it shows how much disrespect he has for his electorate! If Labor win they should install the ICAC & refer his behaviour straight away!

RitaPanahi Some seriously high brow discussions on here Rita!! 🤨😉

RitaPanahi Cheap joke ...cheap hack

RitaPanahi They better stock up on garlic and crucifixes. PeterDutton_MP

RitaPanahi I live in Moncrieff, you’re right, they’re all soulless bastards around here. Dutton will fit right in. The electorate will be now be renamed Goodgrieff. auspol

RitaPanahi Don't be stupid.

RitaPanahi Who are you to speak for the ppl of Moncrieff? Looks like its' gonna be an independent in that seat too. NOBODY likes Dutton, not even Liberal voters. Best Performer? More like most Despised. How offensive can you get.

RitaPanahi Hear hear Mr PeterDutton_MP rocks

RitaPanahi It's always amusing to have politics explained to us by twenty something's ….

RitaPanahi The bloke can’t count, has lied repeatedly on asylum seekers, has not known about many tenders offered by his department and seems to act punitively towards those calling his abuses out. If that makes him a top performer then Dog help us

RitaPanahi Hmm. Good call

RitaPanahi Bloody oath

RitaPanahi Rita if Dutton was the immigration minister when your parents came here, you would probably still be in a camp somewhere.....

RitaPanahi Areufcknserioususillywomen?

RitaPanahi So Rita sees the writing on the wall for Dutton's chances in Dickson?

RitaPanahi Bullshit. Paving the way for PeterDutton_MP to jump ship into a safe seat because it's odds on that his current electorate will dump him at the next election.

RitaPanahi Oy Rita! Your crystal ball is broken!!! Go lie down honey...you know thinking is hard for you...

RitaPanahi 🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂 comedy channel strikes again. I can only assume that Rita has some particularly hateful enemies in Moncrief and she's hoping to make their lives miserable by landing Australia's most despised politician on them.

RitaPanahi One of the govt's top psychopaths

RitaPanahi Are you joking? are you trying to be funny? are you in control of your senses?😓😫😌

RitaPanahi He’s such a top performer half his colleagues can’t stand him and the people of Dickson are about to vote him out. I’ll take that bet Rita.

RitaPanahi Did your boss asked you to say that Rita? I would very much doubt Peter Dutton would be on your side, given the opportunity. If you don't know that, you are as delusional as he is.

RitaPanahi dill. suggest you try to place an actual bet on that. your own real $

RitaPanahi 🥜

RitaPanahi Too scared to face the music, is he?

RitaPanahi Peter Dutton is poison. Poor people you are foisting him on. Plain idiocrasy.

RitaPanahi I hope he gets voted out of office

RitaPanahi Rita..electorale history is not your strong suite. Actually anything related to intelligence. .but ..he tried doing the rat ship run on dickson once before and was sent packing by the GC with his balls in a crocheted dilly bag. Grow up Rita PeterDutton_MP is gone.auspol

RitaPanahi Bet is on what are you putting up.

RitaPanahi

RitaPanahi Good performer? Seriously? At what ? Lies , spin and that ?

RitaPanahi Only the blind,deaf and dumb

RitaPanahi And how would the good voters of Dickson feel about the lack of loyalty ?🤔

RitaPanahi Dear Rita, regardless of the margin, at this point in time, most Liberal ministers would run for the hills if they were going head to head with the energetic and articulate alifrance5

RitaPanahi Excellent show this morning

RitaPanahi I live in Moncreiff and I can assure you love that you are wrong. We just got rid of a dud, why would we want another one. auspol

RitaPanahi She’s delusional

RitaPanahi He's already said he's not going to do it, or did you miss that? And the disposition of the Liberal voters of Moncrieff is nothing compared to the horrendous political optics that would be involved in such a blatant betrayal of the voters of Dickson. auspol

TESSY197 RitaPanahi Great idea. Peter Dutton is too good a performer and too important to the future of Australia and the Liberal Party to be risked in a marginal seat. Plus, lefty heads would explode if he simply stepped across a boundary line into a safe seat. That in itself would be worth it!

RitaPanahi Interesting....

RitaPanahi Oh Rita, not happy plagiarising real journalism now you’re just straight up a propaganda mouthpiece for a minister that is actively involved in sex trafficking

RitaPanahi Do it PeterDutton_MP

RitaPanahi What about the bad Folk, the ones who do t agree with you?

RitaPanahi 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤮🤮🤮

RitaPanahi Dutton is about to jump to a safer seat..... Rita is clearing the path... I believe this is shameful.

RitaPanahi Receptive

RitaPanahi Would you be prepared to put a percentage on what constitutes “an overwhelming majority”? And a number on how much you would be prepared to bet?

RitaPanahi Peter Dutton has done just about nothing for his community, either as a racist corrupt cop, or as a racist corrupt politician. If he's one of the government's top supporters, they deserve to lose 100% of their seats at the next election. auspol

RitaPanahi Hey Rita, why would the “good” member for Dickson need to jump electorates?

RitaPanahi Stay in DicksonVotes Dutton TeamAli is coming for you

RitaPanahi What hellish metric is this idiot using?

RitaPanahi So a top performer is classed as a Homophobic Bigot. What a benchmark

RitaPanahi Would you be greatful Simmo_63 Bahaha

RitaPanahi Lol are you for real? He is a grub and who wants a pollie who continually lies?

RitaPanahi Hyperbolic codswallop.

RitaPanahi I’ll vote fo Dutton but only if he deports Rita Rowan Murray and the whole after dark lnp ipa cheer squad

RitaPanahi

RitaPanahi Seriously?I could not disagree with you more. If he was so good, why move? And how would the good people of Dickson then feel about having their “top performer” local member jumping ship to try and save his electoral skin?

RitaPanahi Another one......off with the fairies. The most annoying voice on any tv broadcasted show or news in the world.

RitaPanahi Lol She gets more stupid by the day.

RitaPanahi You think ?

RitaPanahi WRONG! Moncrieff resident here - we don't want that heartless bastards coming here just to save his skin.

RitaPanahi I assume Rita is trying to get into comedy. Very dark humour though.

RitaPanahi HAHAHAHA and why wouldnt he stay in Dickson?

RitaPanahi Not nearly as happy as the voters of Dickson if they were to see him scurry away for a 'safer' seat.

RitaPanahi

RitaPanahi the snake will slither to a safe seat

RitaPanahi Top performer? A man who is about to lose his seat? The one who proclaims racism and torture as a legitimate strategy. The liar who has wasted $Bs of taxpayers money? Rita, your standards are very low.

RitaPanahi Top performer, what has he got hidden talent that only comes out at the parliament house karaoke bar?

RitaPanahi But will he survive a High Court challenge, Rita? Do the people of Moncrieff really want to go to the polls twice in two months?

RitaPanahi He is a man mired in a scarcity mentality and is able to offer little outside of promulgating fear. Under someone like Dutton policy formation with a view to enabling genuine reform would be next to non existent.

RitaPanahi Delusional. Only a Handful would find Dutton a top performer the while the Rest of Australia are receptive enough to Know think Dutton is a Dud

RitaPanahi Spot on Rita

RitaPanahi Wow really? Christ alive you’re worse than the Greens when it comes to extremism.

RitaPanahi So he can turn it into a marginal seat like Dickson? Be careful what you wish for Rita auspol

Sharraki1 RitaPanahi DuttonRocks!

RitaPanahi He should actually move to (Sydney) electorate of Blaxland 😂😀

RitaPanahi have you been raiding rowans grog cabinet rita?

RitaPanahi If Dutton is the answer to repairing the “Liberal brand”, hurry up and do it. 🤡

RitaPanahi Good god...you people live in a complete fantasy world 😂😂😂

RitaPanahi Panini is a lunatic
