Sky News host Chris Kenny says British Labour showed utter hatred, abuse, deceit, and bitterness over the looming appointment of former prime minister Tony Abbott as a British trade ambassador.

There has been no formal announcement, but it has become likely Mr Abbott will join Britain’s Board of Trade to help the country negotiate free trade deals now it has left the European Union.

“While it’s a bit unusual for a former Australian prime minister to work for the poms, I suppose it’s better than Kevin Rudd going off to work for the UN and spend his days venting on twitter,” Mr Kenny said. However, the Labour Party’s trade spokesperson, Emily Thornberry, hit out at the decision labelling Mr Abbott as “offensive, leering, cantankerous, climate-change-denying, Trump-worshiping misogynist”.

This guy!

I think that British Labour is quite right in their view.

jon_mumford1982 ...and I thought he was Diane's step brother.

England's loss, our gain.

Given that Abbott has proven himself as The Great Poisoner, are we sure he's not just dropping in to the UK to case the joint for future operations, before continuing on to take up his real job, working for Putin?
