JUST days after Prime Minister Kevin Rudd called for a "positive" campaign, one of his Queensland Labor candidates has accused Tony Abbott of being a racist and secretly wanting to bring back the White Australia policy.
Repeatedly referring to the Opposition Leader as "rabbit", Kennedy candidate Ken Robertson described him as a "very, very bigoted person" and said he hoped Australia "never has to suffer his Catholicism".
Mr Robertson was recently announced as Labor's candidate to take on Bob Katter after the seat failed to attract any other preselection nominations.
The former rigger in the Mount Isa copper smelter - who also served in the Australian Merchant Navy - slammed Mr Katter as being "past his used by date".
When asked to clarify why he thought Mr Abbott was "bigoted" - including whether he thought there were race, gender or sexual orientation issues, he replied: "All of the above."
He went on to say that he was convinced Mr Abbott had issues regarding race.
"I'm sure there are with him, he'd have the White Australia policy back in a flash, if he could," he told The Courier-Mail.
Mr Abbott declined to comment but Fadden MP and Coalition frontbencher Stuart Robert called for an immediate public apology for the "outrageous smear" comments and demanded Mr Rudd "sack" Mr Robertson if there isn't one.
Mr Robert said the situation would "test" the "credibility" of Mr Rudd's "new way".
"He has called for a campaign based on a new way, his candidate is now way out of line," Mr Robert said, on behalf of the Coalition.
"Kevin, are you going to lead on this or not? This is about Kevin now."
When asked what he thought about Mr Abbott personally, Mr Robertson accused him of being "bigoted".
"I hope Australia never has to suffer his Catholicism and the things that he's doing personally, because I think he's a very, very bigoted person and that's my opinion, he's a very bigoted man," he said.
Mr Robertson said he believed Mr Rudd was the better performer during the early days of the campaign.
"Mate, I think he's doing good - he's certainly offering a lot better stuff than what Rabbit's doing," he said. "I just can't figure out how Rabbit thinks he's going to be able to pay for a lot of stuff."
While he initially backed away from the name "rabbit", he later defended taking a harsher approach with Mr Abbott.
"Look at all the names that he called Julia when he was there," he said. "If he's asking for quarter now, well he never gave any before."
Mr Robertson - who is hoping to win over voters in the conservative Katter stronghold - said gay marriage was "not on (his) agenda", but also said he would "probably vote for it" and that he "wouldn't be against it".
"I don't think it's a big issue," he said.
He added that he would support gay marriage, "so long as it was not compulsory". He hastily said the latter part of the comment was a "family joke".
Mr Abbott has spent a week each year for a number of years working in remote indigenous communities and has promised to continue to do so.
He has also committed to the traditional indigenous affairs portfolio becoming part of the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet, should he win the election.
Comment was still being sought from Mr Rudd's office last night.
The guy making the comments is a 1st class fool! Is this the sort of people we have going for office?
Abbott is not a bigot. Infact he is a multiculturalist and is in bed with Israel and the Muslims at once as well as Gina Rinehardt who wants the 457 visa system to stay
Abbott is so far socialist Left that he bends back and bites his own right butt-cheek!
Right-Wing, bigoted, racist ... all catch phrases recognisable around the formerly White 2-Party system world. Both are Left, but one is Conservative Left and the other is Extreme Left. Here it's Labor vs Liberal; in the UK it's Labour vs the Tories; and in the US it's Democrat vs Republican. Not a true Right-Wing, bigoted, racist bone in their bodies. People should take a closer look at these politicians' totalitarian, bigoted anti-White racism. If the people really understood that - rather than taking their cues from the media and the politicians themselves - every politician would find himself out of work with a few million boots up his and her arses.
Since voting is compulsory and there is no Australia First Party candidate in my area ... or any Independent candidates worth the ink in my pen, it's time for a
Donkey Vote I think. i.e.
Submitting a blank or defaced ballot paper ... which is illegal in Australia.

Yes , true Government hatred happens when certain people in the Government send their "attack dogs" after their citizens for speaking freely and propagating white rights. This is seen as "dividing the community".When really it upsets corporate big wigs who want cheap labour and after all the Government wants community ties with Asia too! So the Governments will try all kinds of dirty tricks to stifle debate.
Who cares about Democracy, that is just a word for hipocracy! Democracy can be eroded under the contempt the system shows for people that have interests outside of :- Beer, Footy, Westfield, nightclubs , cars and Hollywood. Shut up and be happy and be a good little citizen.
"Freedom of speech .. you got to watch what you say".
If you make too much racket , they'll pay you a visit, audit the hell out of you by the tax department, put up hurdles for you at the Welfare office, set the media onto you, Bully your employer into throwing you out the door,accuse you of money laundering in foreign currency and withdraw funding from your organisation etc.
It's only good to be "right wing" behind the mask of "left wing" when nobody is looking!

It has been said that a true White Racial Revolutionary will be able to smile, greet and shake hands with members of the mud races without anybody knowing his or her true revolutionary nature. While this is correct, it is also wrong. A typical problem with White Racial Loyalists is that they become so enmeshed in their private wars that they are all too willing to denounce anyone who does not follow their particular mode of thinking. Whether that is wigger gang-bangers with shaved heads and swastikas, Militia training for the future war against the JOG, underground White Revolutionaries planning an execution, underground White Racial Loyalists working behind the scenes for a Whiter and Brighter Day, or public White Racial Activists campaigning to preserve out rapidly dwindling White Rights ... they each have their agenda and are likely to succumb to not thinking outside the box of their little world, and feel the need to blame others for their lack of success. I guess you could say that they suffer from
Little World Syndrome. Well, we in the Alliance are nothing like the
Little Worlders. We reject the political method as the solution; yet we participate as supporters of legit White Racial political parties because we understand that White Racialism can no more abandon the political scene than the White Race can abandon the wider world and retreat to a tiny corner of North America and await the end. We acknowledge the need for underground patriots able to rise to positions of authority in this world of our enemy. We acknowledge the need for extremely disciplined and capable fighters to act as community defenders (as opposed to the loose cannons of the skinhead gangs). And we acknowledge the need for those like myself who have nothing left to lose and are able to dedicate their lives to public activism.
Now, this might sound all well and good, but what you all have to remember is, that if there is an insufficient number of public activists - whether using their real names as I do, or using a nom de guerre for reasons of privacy - then there will always be an insufficient number of underground activists. And in a world of roughly one-billion (and declining) White people and five-billion (and growing) oxygen bandits, we need everyone we can get - public and underground. And with enough dedicated, loyal White soldiers in position, we will win back this world for a glorious White Racial future.
Think about it carefully before you act, and then follow your true path, because the easy answer isn't always the best answer for the White Race.
RaHoWa!
