I remember threatening in print to break Fran Kelly’s nose when she asked Paul Keating three days before his defeat if this was, in a sense, his ‘Last Supper’.

I never did, but I am inclined to renew the threat this morning after she said ‘all the polls were going bad for Labor’.

No, no, no. Essential, the most accurate last time, has Labor on 50 and the Undecided increasing in the last three days to 17 percent from 8. Morgan, the most thorough, has Labor on 49, and will show them gaining after the confusion, today, over the Pymble Baby Binge and its rorting.

She must stop doing this. I am beginning to hate her. I exhort her overthrow and replacement by the wise James Carleton. She knows full well ReachTEL has no track record and a stupid methodology and she should say so.

I note now too that AM has given up reporting politics. They are doing ‘portraits’ instead of various electorates — Forde, this morning — without ever asking the people they are talking to how they will vote; thus collaborating in the Lonergan fraud.

If they keep it up, they and Fran should go to gaol beside him.
