My Name Is Kevin, I'm From Queensland,

I Was Elected By The People Of Australia As Prime Minister Of Australia. I Was Elected To Do A Job, I Intend To Continue Doing That Job. I Intend To Continue Doing It To The Absolute Best Of My Ability. Part Of That Job Has Been To Steer This Country Through The Worst Economic Crisis The World Has Seen In 75 Years.

There Are Many Who Criticise The United Nations. And Those Of Us Who Know This Institution Well Know That It Is Not Immune From Criticism.

I Just Don't Really Get Into All That Sort Of Personal Negative Stuff. My Job Is To Outline Some Positive Plans For The Country's Future And Perhaps Mr. Howard And The Government Don't Like The Fact That I'm Putting Out Some Positive Alternatives. What's Their Preference.. For Me To Be A Negative Carping Opposition Leader?
