people
Once people come to Australia, they join the team.
people truth
The truth is I try to take people as I find them.
senior thinking people
I think all senior politicians tend to be rather more subtle then the commentators would have it. It is a natural tendency for human beings to try to classify. We all have this classification urge - so and so is such and such, that person is in that camp - but look, most sophisticated people defy stereotype.

party people political
Political parties don't work when people just announce what they are doing and expect everyone else to follow.
people trying filth
I instinctively try to protect people from filth.
technology iphone people
All of the people who are using their BlackBerries or their iPhones, Facebook, all of the people who are sitting in cafes and hotels rooms doing their work, they're all using wireless technology, and we shouldn't assume that the only way of the future is high speed cable.
play australia people
Australia would play its role in taking displaced people from the Syrian conflict.
people promise i-can
I can't promise that I won't continue to embarrass people.
