Paul Karp: if Peter Darden is the answer to the problem, then you have to ask yourself, what is the problem?
On Feb. 13, 2008, Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd issued a letter of apology to Aboriginal people in the House of Assembly. At the beginning of the speech Peter Darden left the Chamber of Parliament. This is not a man for leadership. "
That Dr Sheep Person: "Peter Dutton, who may be the next Australian prime minister, is a man who can allow his child to die on Nauru, and you should think about those who still want to enter Australia through a hunger strike on protest."
Mike Carlton:, "this is Peter Darden`s nursery."
