THEY are the two men who would be king and Tony Abbott and London Mayor Boris Johnson couldn't decide who should be giving who tips on becoming the next prime minster.
The two Tories reveled in each other’s company overnight as Johnson first suggested he should be advising Abbott on being the next leader to which Abbott quipped something about it was possibly the other way around.
And in the midst of all the guffawing it was lost who meant what and whether such advice was from the next leader or to a future leader or both.
That was before both men sat down for more serious matters like infrastructure, roads and transport and perhaps a leadership tip or two back and forth particularly on garnishing the migrant vote.
For once Mr Johnson was keeping tight-lipped on who said and meant what.

The ever-ebullient London mayor is seen as the only Conservative leader with the popularity to see the Conservatives remain in power while Mr Abbott has made no secret of his ambition and has put on a breakneck London trip commensurate with someone keen to garner support from the mother country.
Mr Abbott met with the London chief on a day that also included meetings with Jon Day, chairman of the powerful Joint Intelligence Committee to discuss international security issues, and Foreign Secretary William Hague on the future of the mission in Afghanistan.
Mr Abbott then ducked across Whitehall for a meeting with Work and Pensions Secretary Ian Duncan Smith to discuss welfare reform then see the practical side with Jeremy Hempstead, chief executive of the London Apprenticeship Centre, integrating disadvantaged jobless into the market.
Then it was a late session with Sir Mervyn King, Bank of England governor, to discuss the economic weaknesses still plaguing Europe. And that was just in one day of a four-day trip.
On the latter visit, Mr Abbott said it was important to have a “good handle” on what was happening in the British economy, which has suffered a double dip recession under Sir Mervyn's stewardship.
“I think it is important Australia does not go down that European path and frankly if the government cannot move back into surplus swiftly, if the government cannot get its spending under control it remains a government that’s addicted to taxing, spending and borrowing and that’s where we are headed, we are headed down the European path,” Mr Abbott said.

PS - Now to (Connect...The...Dots)
1. I distinctly remember watching ex-PM John Howard being interviewed on the ABC regarding his Autobiographical book of memoirs after his tenure as PM.
He was asked the Question on Tony Abbotts current leadership of the Australian Liberal Party and his career as an MP.
Howard Responded (edit - not word for word) "Abbott was a 'Rhodes Scholar' (Meaning he was 'Tapped' at an early age) and now he is leader, its IMPORTANT for him to meet the 'Right People'."
ABC Interviewer (edit - not word for word) "Who are the 'Right People'...?"
Howard then quickly 'Changed the Subject' and continued the interview..!
2. Then Abbott meets the Lord Mayor of the 'City of London' Boris Johnson...
3. Then Abbott meets Jon Day, chairman of the powerful Joint Intelligence Committee to discuss international security issues, and Foreign Secretary William Hague
William Hague is the 'Key-Govt-Link' between the :spy: No.1 Spy Organisation (The Royal Institute of International Affairs - Chatnam House) who (CONTROL) 'All' the other major 3-Letter Agencies i.e CIA, FBI, NSA, etc, etc...

4. Mr Abbott then ducked across Whitehall for a meeting with Work and Pensions Secretary Ian Duncan Smith to discuss welfare reform.
Why? Heard about how the US Govt. are gearing up to rob the people of their 401k's, Pensions?
So there you have it...
Now, you don't need to be a 'Rhodes Scholar' to (Connect...The...Dots) now do you..!!!
Pardon the pun...
What a Sick-Corrupted World we live in..!!!
Bye-Bye Australia :wave: - Welcome to the UK, USA, Europe (Economic-Club)...:yes4:
The 'Debt-Clock'...
JuLIAR Gillard's Labor Govt had $20 Billion in the Bank before they started, now we are $169 Billion in 'Debt' and borrwing at a rate of $100 Million/per day...
With 'Nothing' to show for it...:mad2:
