Presenting the one and only Mr Paul Keating - at his straight-shooting, scumbag-calling, merciless best. Paul lets rip:

On John Howard: 'The little desiccated coconut is under pressure and he is attacking anything he can get his hands on.'

On Peter Costello: 'The thing about poor old Costello is he is all tip and no iceberg.'

On John Hewson: '(His performance) is like being flogged with a warm lettuce.'

On Andrew Peacock: '...what we have here is an intellectual rust bucket.'

On Wilson Tuckey: '...you stupid foul-mouthed grub.'

On Tony Abbott: 'If Tony Abbott ends up the prime minister of Australia, you've got to say, God help us.'

And that's just a taste...
