    Hey everyone! I’m aussie and I’m here to explain this to people who need help understanding this. Tony abbott is a far right wing conspiracy theorist who ignored the UN and for one term was prime minister of Australia. He is disliked and hated by many in his party and others. He also defunded the ABC (Australian Broadcoasting Corporation, national broadcaster).

    “dickhead” 😄✊️
