COALition supports logging, so logging an entire forest is ok but a single tree is act of vandalism?
This is a perfect analogy of Tony Abbott legacy.

Why don’t they honour him with a giant block of coal?

The quote is attributed to Mark Greenhill the mayor of the location of the tree.
It would be particularly rich if it was a quote from Abbot as he continues to try his little black heart out to import the vicious politics of America.

“An English Oak tree”
Hardly surprising considering he wanted to bring back Knights and Dames
Disgusting the way some people treat our beautiful trees. I mean it never asked to honour Tony Abbot.

Why would anyone want to honor that goblin?

It would be a real shame if everyone visiting the tree in future sprinkled a teaspoon of salt on the base of it with their back to the cctv.

Pulling trees down makes you a bit of a cunt tbh

Maybe they should try planting a native tree, people might be less inclined to be cunts about it.

A terrible act.
Everyone knows that tree is for pissing on.

Can we throw Paul Kent into Tony Abbot’s tree?

Wow.
Genuinely surprised there are so many cunts on Reddit.
You don’t like Tony Abbott? Good for you.
This tree didn’t deserve to be vandalised because it was “honouring” him.
We’ve got a huge problem with the vandalising of greenery going on, which Reddit typically rallies against. But this one gets a pass because this tree is tenuously linked to a politician you don’t like. Get fucked.

Spared the tree a life of shame.

Hate mr onions all you want but don’t take it out on his tree. Simply remove the plaque and change the Wikipedia entry.

Let’s form an orderly queue please. Axes available on the left. One at a time please!

In all seriousness, why wasn’t it an onion bush?

Lol “extremely rare” thing that happened a second time already. You can stop blaming America, that’s some homegrown political unrest. Shifting the blame instead of addressing the “root” cause will only let it fester.

Once went to this hotel in NSW and above the counter was all this Catholic paraphernalia and in amongst there was a picture of Abbott surrounded by flowers. I mean it was a nice hotel but that was a bit bonkers

Vicious politics … Tony Abbott…. Oh the irony… I think at least. Or it’s just funny.

Fitting. About the same respect he gave the environment.
