“The little desiccated coconut is under pressure and he is attacking anything he can get his hands on …What we have got is a dead carcass, swinging in the breeze, but nobody will cut it down to replace him.” (on John Howard)
I was in those days a Liberal voter but I acknowledge that anyone who tried to take on Paul Keating was up against a totally immovable force. The guy was brilliant.
The memories, those wonderful memories. Robust Debate? It's Parliament Mr. Speaker. Today's Politicians' are useless! Since when has Australia become Politically Correct? l must have missed the memo.
Paul Keating is without peer. Nobody in the HOR these days come even close to him in political skill nor setting things in place to ensure Australia prospers as a country.
Penny Wong is as good but not so aggressive ... and Doug Cameron is another strong one he is like a dog with a bone and his grip gets stronger everytime the opposition try’s to free themselves .
On days when the lying libs corruption gets me down I watch Paul on her to cheer me up .... if we played this clip and replaced Hewsons name with turnbulls name it would fit perfectly !!
For all that happened between Keating and Hawke over the years, Keating said that he had great admiration, friendship, fondness and respect for Hawke. Here it is for us all to see, defending his friend and laying waste to his accusers.
Well said, the fact that Hawke met with Keating shortly before his death and asked him to speak at his funeral tells you all you need to know, they had a falling out over leadership but that couldn’t eclipse the remarkable political and indeed personal partnership they built, and what that achieved for Australia.
there was only one Keating. The thing was, at the time Australia didnt realise how bloody good they had it. If only someone could get him back into politics :)
took PJK a while to get going but once he did, he was absolutely unstoppable. i honestly miss this kind of conviction from all sides of politics today.
David Tron me too whenever I was at home sick at school or I’d ask my mum to record it for me. He was whip smart, articulate and a joy to watch. I miss him.
This is one of the most inspiring politicians Australia has ever produced, erudite, organised & fearless.... l am proud to be a Keating disciple and voter..
I was 26yo when Paul Keating let rip on this day. Back then I didn’t have the political intelligence to understand what was being said. Now, I can hear everything. Paul Keating is perhaps Australia’s sharpest ever politician. Intelligent, quick-witted with strong moral grounding. An all-round good bloke.
I have read full bios on almost every Australian Prime Minister. Honestly, Keating was up there with the best. For the successful Hawke years, for me, it was a dual leadership deal, with Keating as backbone. I love a politician with backbone.
You’d have to get up pretty early to catch Paul Keating out. He was a great talker, straight shooter telling it like it is. He was also very funny. This was a true Labor leader.
@@Freedom_Now_2024 a true patriot .... Who refused to do the Gallipoli bullshit! He considered Kakoda our finest moment .... The right call ..... Adding Tobruk might be in there as well.
Mr Keating might have lied about his education.No one leaving school at fourteen could speak so well and with mind of internet speed even before internet was created.
Paul Keating PM was heads and shoulders above the rest of the politicians in our current parliament. Our current, totally pathetic PM could learn more than a thing or two from him.
One of PJK's most impressive peformances. He called out the Tory's for all their self interest. He showed them up for all they ever stand for. Self Interest over national interest. This is all they have ever done and all they continue to do up until now. And no doubt into the future.
I would have loved to be a fly on the wall at PJKs house that time Tone started talking about carefully scripted responses being the only thing you could take as actual fact.
If you liked him you’d say that he’s saying what everyone’s thinking, and that he cares about the country enough to really speak his mind. If you hated him you’d call him immature and unprofessional. But let’s face it if politics wasn’t like this who would pay attention?
I noticed Beazley sitting in chair next to Hawke. And Reith next to Hewson. I don't think I've ever seen any pollie sit there before. It's usually empty. What's Kim and Peter up to? Who gets to sit there it it's not the Deputy Prime Minister or the treasurer or it's rank equivalent on the other side?
7:22 I love the guy behind his left shoulder with a look of 'he actually went there!'. I'm so disappointed I was only 11 years old when Keating was last PM. Missed out on the best PM of the last 30 years
I don’t know of any modern labor politician that would accurately and sharply call out corruption on the level of mining deals, gold industry interests and the like, that keating did. With recollections of meetings, transgressions, sequence of events like what a leader says and what then happens to them by other players in the party with those connections to lobbyists in play.. and no one was able to say keating misinformed the house because it was always the truth and something adverse to what he would do. He was so in tune with the machinations of the lnp and their dirt, and the only one to go digging that deep nowadays knowing where to look and what to look for and call ot out for exactly what it is in detail, is friendlyjordies.
why can't we get a good hollywood biopic of paul keating's life, it would be absolutely badass I'm sure.. hopefully one day, jack lang would be epic in it, also bob hawke and gough whitlam, that would be so badass I'm sure, some really great politicians there, we need to be reminded more of these great examples of social policy imo
PJK vs Hewson is brilliant to watch. A truly brilliant, visonary mind vs a dull witted LNP hack. Hewson is so far out of his depth here it's not funny.
he was a great prime minister...beyond his time...he could see the future. He would destroy clowns today in parliament
He was well protected
His destruction of the opposition amounted to sadism ..... Especially of little Johnny and Timmy....
This type of politics went out the door as the Murdoch press walked in. People like Keating today would be smeared out sadly.
People like him, John hewson, John Howard. Those were the days.
Albo needs to step up and channel a bit of the ol PJK
Keating on the front foot belting the conservatives senseless.
One of a kind politican and PM.

Do you regret or are content with your voting decisions back then looking back?
I hope you are better
Paul Keating, quotes in hand, would have been a terrifying opponent to debate.
I would run knowing I’d be up against Keating!
I watch PK daily for courage and inspiration! Best moments are: ALL of them!!!
alda schinaia so true
I miss Paul Keating more every day.
The memories, those wonderful memories. Robust Debate? It's Parliament Mr. Speaker. Today's Politicians' are useless! Since when has Australia become Politically Correct? l must have missed the memo.
Children don't
@@thesorrentosmoon4693 It was starting under keating??? didnt you see that politcal correctness started under him.?

I think the thing was Paul loved Hawke but he knew he could do it better..and he did.
Keating was a real Australian Man...
the rest are poodles .... Good for elderly widows.
Well said, the fact that Hawke met with Keating shortly before his death and asked him to speak at his funeral tells you all you need to know, they had a falling out over leadership but that couldn’t eclipse the remarkable political and indeed personal partnership they built, and what that achieved for Australia.
"Jack Lang would be very happy with my performance"
i'm very confident he would be Paul
"Disgusting is not unparliamentary, you clown!"
LMAO!
there was only one Keating. The thing was, at the time Australia didnt realise how bloody good they had it.
If only someone could get him back into politics :)
If I ever found a magic lamp, rubbed it, and the genie within gave me one wish, I'd spend it on getting Keating back as PM.
Watching PJK never gets old...what a BOSS!!!
Its never been delivered any better by any politician in Australian history.
Paul Keating. A very good PM for Australia. Great watching this.
Agree with his politics or not, you cannot question that Keating actually gives a shit about all of Australia, not just the privileged Australia.
took PJK a while to get going but once he did, he was absolutely unstoppable. i honestly miss this kind of conviction from all sides of politics today.
I used to watch him in Parliament time during my lunch break from work. He was always magic.
David Tron me too whenever I was at home sick at school or I’d ask my mum to record it for me. He was whip smart, articulate and a joy to watch. I miss him.
David Tron that would motivate you to finish the day on a high
Keating, the best politician we were blessed with!
The LNP really has been chasing their collective egos since this man collectively dacked them all in parliament.
This is one of the most inspiring politicians Australia has ever produced, erudite, organised & fearless.... l am proud to be a Keating disciple and voter..
What a brilliant piece of theatre.

Paul Keating is perhaps Australia’s sharpest ever politician. Intelligent, quick-witted with strong moral grounding. An all-round good bloke.
Nowadays they're not even allowed to say the word "you". Crazy.
Keating at his best. Boy he was ferocious
Was worth watching any political programme when Paul Keating was Treasurer and then Prime Minister.
My hero, for so many reasons!
Agree with you
The best Australian politician
Best PM ever..though the general public (or the 1/3 of swinging voters more so) never got it. Pity. Thanks for the Super Paul.
David Tron instead we got sniveling little Johnny Coward.
I would suggest Whitlam as the best.
Love Keating. He should still be PM.
John Andersen i
And now it's Albo I hope he takes notes from Paul Keating
I have read full bios on almost every Australian Prime Minister. Honestly, Keating was up there with the best. For the successful Hawke years, for me, it was a dual leadership deal, with Keating as backbone. I love a politician with backbone.
The perfect description of Scott Morrison.
To a tee
We need someone intelligent like on both sides of politics now.
You’d have to get up pretty early to catch Paul Keating out. He was a great talker, straight shooter telling it like it is. He was also very funny. This was a true Labor leader.
They don't make them like the used to. Keating was frightening in the Lower House. I'd love to get my hands on the whole censure motion.
He was great to watch live in question time. He so believed in his mission to right the country which he did.
David Tron so true!
@@Freedom_Now_2024 a true patriot .... Who refused to do the Gallipoli bullshit!
He considered Kakoda our finest moment .... The right call ..... Adding Tobruk might be in there as well.
Disgusting is not unparliamentary you clown! Love it.
lol 😂
Since Keating left politics
No one on either side of the house could stand beside him and debate
He was with out peers
Ruthless
7:11 - genuine anger.
It's like he's angry just for himself! Fighting for what's fair for the people. True conviction!
Mr Keating might have lied about his education.No one leaving school at fourteen could speak so well and with mind of internet speed even before internet was created.
You haven’t met a truly gifted dropout. Education supports brilliance, it does not create it.
He was a student of politics. Bill Gates, Thomas edison, Albert Einstein, Walt Disney, colonel sanders and many many more were HS dropouts. 🤷🏻
Paul Keating PM was heads and shoulders above the rest of the politicians in our current parliament. Our current, totally pathetic PM could learn more than a thing or two from him.
Paul....PLEASE COME BACK!
yes he was such a funny man , when you consider him to this most docile question time
its as if he's a teacher and all LNP members are misbehaving school kids
He genuinely reminds me of my homeroom teacher
One of PJK's most impressive peformances. He called out the Tory's for all their self interest. He showed them up for all they ever stand for. Self Interest over national interest. This is all they have ever done and all they continue to do up until now. And no doubt into the future.
Smartest man I’ve ever seen in politics
Paul Keating would make an superb police detective, or a District Attorney, in a tv series. He knows when to give people hell, and when to be nice.
Bring back the Keating!
Hawke and Keating, giants of men.
Thanks for posting, I've been looking for this for a while
I think Hawkes in Shock also!!!
Barrack Obama speaks very well publicly but Keating has no peer. Beautifully deliberate and restrained.
"Unless your scripted your useless" LOL...recalcitrant's..
Love the way he came up with just the right words for the occasion! Talk about being knocked out without having been thrown a single punch!!!
I would have loved to be a fly on the wall at PJKs house that time Tone started talking about carefully scripted responses being the only thing you could take as actual fact.
"disgusting is not unparliamentary you CLOWN" Paul Keating is hilarious
He was a street fighter when it came to take on the libs.
“No pride whatsoever...the front of Liberal front bencher”
Like it or not, there was no impropriety.
193 trolls from Scott Morrison club. P.S. love Keating.
MD4564 yeah those trolls maybe would like if Keating started talking in tongues.
Oh hell yeah! Uncle Paul has always had the words to humiliate and embarrass his Opponents. God I miss those days!
like an eagle in full flight
I watch him in full flight every day for courage and inspiration!
No ....like a Jack Russell at a bone in an Italian suit!
8:17 "Awww FUCK OFF"
yeah heard that 😂
Walk on home boy!!👊👊
What happenned to the Labor partys wit and wisdom of Mr Keating, John howard copied his persona but never his integrity
Legend!
"Disgusting is not unparliamentary you clown" 😆
The best part of this is Keating saying: "Disgusting" is not unparliamentary you clown!
He left out despicable.
Thanks you tube to bringing back these amazing videos. Never forget about.
Keating at his best.
If you liked him you’d say that he’s saying what everyone’s thinking, and that he cares about the country enough to really speak his mind.
If you hated him you’d call him immature and unprofessional.
But let’s face it if politics wasn’t like this who would pay attention?
time frame 7.20M onwards...his a gun
Why the downvotes?
Zonno5 because Keating is a wanker
Liberal voters - shame really, so many cynical hypocrites.
@@ggo2505then by definition ..if Keating is a wanker ...the Conservatives can't get it up!🤭
I noticed Beazley sitting in chair next to Hawke. And Reith next to Hewson. I don't think I've ever seen any pollie sit there before. It's usually empty. What's Kim and Peter up to? Who gets to sit there it it's not the Deputy Prime Minister or the treasurer or it's rank equivalent on the other side?
Beazley is leader of house about this time , perhaps that's why he is there.
@@AlistairMaxwell77 Thank you. 🙂
Paul was pissed off haha
Very creatively pissed-off!
Why oh why did you retire Paul Keating.
Bondopoulos Don’t you mean, why oh why did people vote him out?!
The Best
PJK a Knight in shining armour, who hammered the liberals.
Is there such robust discussion in parliament these days?
7:22 I love the guy behind his left shoulder with a look of 'he actually went there!'. I'm so disappointed I was only 11 years old when Keating was last PM. Missed out on the best PM of the last 30 years
he made politics interesting
You got to Love Paul ,,

Too clever by far.
Incredibly intelligent man.
7:09 Keating snaps!
God DAAAAAAYM.
Yea
7:21 you’re welcome
He didn't say despicable though. That truly is disgraceful disgusting despicable
why can't we get a good hollywood biopic of paul keating's life, it would be absolutely badass I'm sure.. hopefully one day, jack lang would be epic in it, also bob hawke and gough whitlam, that would be so badass I'm sure, some really great politicians there, we need to be reminded more of these great examples of social policy imo
Spose we can all go!!!!!, who should I bring??!!
Had he been in the uk he would have been told to withdraw or leave the for the rest of the day
I’m here for sheer entertainment.
Refreshing watching stern political mastery
Jack Lang is very happy
July 2021Scomo Frydenberg Dutton et al ...🤬
The speak real true story thank you
He was good but in the end there was a reason the public voted him out: too much yelling with no delivery
Or should I leave them here?? I reckon!!!
Classic talk
Sounds like one should talk to Biden
Stop it he's dead already
Think you should play ones mate, been good all pre-season.
Oh PAUL, though dost protest too much.
Gallery😂😂😂
Keating..... the Lefts greatest hater.
How come you don't standup to your people's only answer's.the there side you don,t know me i don't know too
7:20
PJK vs Hewson is brilliant to watch. A truly brilliant, visonary mind vs a dull witted LNP hack. Hewson is so far out of his depth here it's not funny.
