What would you say if you met former Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott?

With his conservative views, preference for budgie smugglers and tendency to eat raw onions, he certainly wasn’t Australia’s favourite politician – as evidenced by this video uploaded to Facebook yesterday morning. Posted by Mike Robley, it shows a swift encounter with Abbott in Manly – and really, the 12 second clip speaks for itself.

Having been re-posted by Brown Cardigan and gaining over 22,000 views to date, it seems like these sentiments might be echoed by some of the Australian public. Watch here:

It's good to be at Manly Wharf on day 1 of the Federal Election campaign. @liberalpartynsw @liberalaus
