Hawke sounds like he is all talk, he thinks you can negotiate with that crook Trump and his evil clowns…lol🤣😅
I was shocked to see how much Blanche, at that age, looked like Sally Anne Huckstett. Our Parliament Houses have long since been used as bordellos for our entitled politicians of ill repute. 😢

Regardless of all other 'things' (and various political views, then & now). Bob Hawke's intelligence, personality, talent and abilities are so sorely missing from Australia's current political scene!!?
well that raised more questions than answered!!!! She isn't convincing as the grieved widow??!!
Why no comments section on the female footballers of Iran?
