Perhaps John Howard should emulate Jeff Kennett and ban his MPs from speaking to the press in the lead up to the election. Hang on, Kennett lost anyway…
Two prize own goals in today’s news from Liberals. Here’s Ken Smith, a Victorian Liberal state MP attacking Julia Gillard.
“Has the new hairstyle, a bit of a rinse, and a set of pearls helped the red-headed Labor industrial relations motormouth understand what it is all about?” Liberal MP for Bass Ken Smith said in Parliament.
Since Mr Smith insists his comments aren’t personal and only related to policy and competence, perhaps he won’t mind if LP readers critique his “look” and haircut:
Don’t care to? Catty bitchslaps about hairstyles only acceptable about women MPs?
Meanwhile, Costello protege and boy wonder Christopher Pyne doesn’t really intend to do anything in his portfolio, it’s being reported, because he’s got family stuff and an election this year, and he’s a young fella who doesn’t like aged care homes, and he’d really rather be working in foreign affairs.
Looking closely, I’d say Brylcream for the hair and Aquavelva for the aftershave, with a swig of mouthwash of course……Listerine probably.
Even though he’s now claiming a misquote I still agree that Chris Pyne isn’t the man for the job, someone with one foot closer to the grave would be much better, I’m thinking a current sitting PM.
Definitely some teeth whitening, and I think the tie is tacky.
Not to insult undertakers, but………….
There are also creams that you can buy that disguise the bags under your eyes…
Kim: two minds with but a single thought re teeth, tie and eyes. I was thinking cucumber slices or used teabags on the eye bags, myself, though of course he could afford the expensive stuff.
The shirt looks about 40 years out of date.
And does anyone else think that strangely asymmetrical quiffed widow’s peak has too much product in it?
Yes, the hair was worrying me, Dr Cat, but I really wouldn’t know where to start…
The thinking mans Philip Ruddock
He’s let himself go, which shows what he thinks of the great Australian voting public. Couldn’t even make the effort with a bit of rouge and lippy. It’s not like that’s much to ask.
Ennui has gripped me so I can’t be bothered googling so tell me, has he spawned or remained barren?
Can’t keep the bloke away from the hairdryer
He’s done his duty by the country, but there’s no excuse for not keeping attractiveness and fitness in mind after the kiddies are delivered:
This is intriguing:

Can’t bowl, can’t throw, can’t catch.
I would have thought being a Vic State liberal member was enough of an insult. What a pack of losers.
“Don’t care to? Catty bitchslaps about hairstyles only acceptable about women MPs?” No way Kim. Plans to stand for parls are on hold, anyway.
Kenny is most definitely a Californian Poppy man, gone Brylcream. With a cowslick like that, he would charm the arse off ……..well , his wife and many now resting on the other side.
He knows a thing or two about hair colouring, I reckon. Is that the blue rinse I see? Most attractive, but scarey when combined with the “I know what’s best for you leer”, that is now even unpopular with parish priests.
Your all soft on this bastard!He’s got a face like a busted arsehole.He wouldn’t get a root in a wood yard.
My opinion on Pyne was sealed with Broughton Hall and his utterance of the word ‘incontinence’. Something to do with management failure. Having worked in an old person’s home, managing incontinence is someting of an oxymoron.
But poor Christopher could barely allow the word across his lips without a sense of a diplomat’s taste being seriously violated. He’s my quintessential Liberal. My guess is that we will have to get used to him as he may be around a while. To eventually metamorphose into a kenny.
Kim , incidentally , all that stuff about Pyney has been ruled out of order by an insider and close sauce , none other than, Andrew the bolt.
Reckons that ‘the Pyne’ loves foreign affairs, but can still handle the ‘old fogeys’ after a cone or two.
His ambition appears to be to metamorphosise into a Dolly.
I’m thinking that Ken likes a Liberal dose of, um, special hair gel.
women is about looks , men it’s penius size, being a member of the modest members club say’s it all
Tortoise with a blow wave.
If you google image him, you discover they have changed his photo. The other one showed us how the drippy hair product bit covered his bald patch.
Hey Ken plagiarised that hair from the Quiksilver logo.
Anyway I’m sure they were both taken out of context … there’s a lot of it going about.
Using the power of facial recognition software, Ken Smith looks like these people.
I COULD SURF THAT HAIR.
WAVE OF THE FUTURE!
Not a smiler. Curl of lip suggests a sneer is more likely.
Pyne seems to be suffering the same sort of foot-in-mouth, duff sense of humour as his fellow South Australian and factional nemesis, Alexander Downer.
