Means nothing, his son will take over and is just as bad, if not worse than pops.

Well, hopefully he's more inept than pops.

Fuck you Rupert.

You make me ashamed to be Australian.

Don't feel bad. When he fucked off to the U.S he renounced his Australian citizenship.

Clearly being a megalomaniac was more important to him.
