neil mitchell: If you want to see an example of politicians divorced from economic reality, you could do worse than Malcolm Turnbull last week, according to The Guardian. The prime minister was asked by 3AW Neil Mitchell whether he related to Australia voters, to which the prime minister responded by arguing he did because it was his job and what Australians want to see from their government is strong leadership, in particular strong economic growth . When asked if that message was getting through, Turnbull replied Well Neil we have to look at the facts. Right now GDP growth and even the unemployment rate don t agree with the real-world experience for many people. We have 3.3% real GDP growth. Another great example was given by the foreign affairs minister, Julie Bishop. If you eyes are not rolling by now, they should be.
