Top 10 Prime Ministers of Australia
The Top Ten
Shocked Hawkie isn't higher. Like, what the hell?
Keating and Hawke were the dream team.
Legend will never be forgotten
Introduced medicare
While born into a well-off household, he pleaded the case of the poor and made our country more fair to the poorest among us. It seems fitting that the man that gave us the first Australian universal healthcare system should live a longer life than any other prime minister we have yet had. It is a true pity that he left office in such a way.
This guy made Australia, I'd give Rudd a lot of points, Howard is terrible and you can't argue that considering his economic sucess was because of Chinas need for Metals and we lost all the profit in like 2 years and no infrastructure was built. If you argue that and you are from west Sydney if it wasn't for Whitlam you would still be using outhouses.
Because he created modern day Australia
Basically started Modern Australia
John Howard was a war monger and U.S puppet to President George Bush because he supported the war in Iraq by sending Australian Troops to handle the ordeal. He was also anti-immigration where he made many negative sentiments on foreigners. However the only good thing he achieved in his term in office was to ban firearms after the deaths of many people in Port Arthur.
We had a lot of money in the bank with him and only 70 illegal immigrants passed by in 12 years in charge and with Kevin Rudd it was 1000 a month.
Paul keating once said that Australia never had a Great leader... John Howard was and is still a The Greatest leader.
John Howard was the second longest serving prime minister in Australia's history.
said sorry to the aboriginals
Australia was unaffected by the Great Recession when He was in office.
Saw everyone as an equal
First prime minister to do something about the climate (solar panel credits, more renewables and tried to introduce an emissions trading scheme)
"Australia looks to America"
A wartime PM faced with invasion who made it clear that our future security was linked to the USA, not the UK.
Visionary and contemporary. On indigenous affairs and our place in the Asia Pacific, he was and is without peer,
Best one liners ever
Visionary. Transformative. Courageous. Easily the greatest of all time. I read a quote once - “Australia was ready for Keating, Australians were not.” They are now. His vision was and remains spot on.
Surprised this guy isn't higher. He was the longest-serving PM and changed Australia forever
The Contenders
Was kicked out too quickly because she made it heard for business to be greedy, carbon happy, morons
Overrated
Steady hand
Anthony John "Tony" Abbott is an Australian politician who was the 28th Prime Minister of Australia, from 18 September 2013 to 15 September 2015. Abbott was leader of the Liberal Party from 2009 to 2015, and has been a member of parliament for Warringah since 1994. Should be at the bottom of this list or better still, not on it.
Even though he's basically at meme to many people, he is my favourite prime minister and did very well for Australia
He's HORRIBLE!
best
I would choose this guy over Albanese, 100%!
Is great
He Was A Okay Prime Minster
Hollywood actor "Julian McMahon's" father
