I was just watching Malcolm Turnbull on question time trying to explain why he is wealthy and he commented that he was fortunate that his parent were smart people and had passed that intelligence on to him and that ordinary people should look at him and say " There but for the grace of God Go I " !
Sorry Malcolm but there are a lot of people who struggled to get where they are in life without the opportunities that were afforded to you and I would suggest perhaps that it is you who should look at the less fortunate in our society and say.

Re: Malcolm Turnbull.
Perhaps Malcolm should be less concerned about God's supposed favouritism and more concerned about Shakespeare's observation that " uneasy lies the head that wears the crown "

Hey Bob!
I heard that as well, but thought he put it more in the context of what you suggest he should have done.
Not that I take much notice of what any Polly has to say.
