Tony Abbott
I'm focused on doing the job the treasurer should do.I don't respond to gossip.
Tony Abbott
No senior politician can expect to have work-life balance. I'm afraid there are some jobs for which work-life balance inevitably goes out the window. If you want work-life balance you just have to accept that you can't be a senior member of a government, or for that matter a senior member of an opposition.

I think leadership is knowing what you want to achieve and then purposefully and sensibly taking steps to achieve it, remembering always that you have got to bring people with you if you are seeking to be a successful political leader.
Tony Abbott
The fact is that I'm interested in getting on with my job of holding the Government to account and I think that the Government should get on with the job of effectively running the country and not making excuses for poor performance, not lowering expectations. Their job is to deliver on their election commitments.
Tony Abbott
Oppositions are not there to get legislation through. Oppositions are there to hold the government to account.

Like the Governor-General, when asked what you enjoy most about the job my tendency is to say today, because of the insights you get into our nation and because of the privileged contact you have with so many people.
Tony Abbott

Tony Abbott
I know politicians are going to be judged on everything they say but sometimes in the heat of discussion you go a little bit further than you would if it was an absolutely calm, considered, prepared, scripted remark. The statements that need to be taken absolutely as gospel truth are those carefully prepared scripted remarks.
