Bob Hawke, sex addict

News.com.au reported:

Bob Hawke was a sex addict who gave up the grog but not having extramarital sex with multiple lovers while Prime Minister, according to a bombshell biography that reveals his taxpayer-funded security team drove him to see women.

The former PM’s widow Blanche d’Alpuget has revealed he had at least four lovers during his time in the Lodge and that he used extramarital sex as a form of stress release while he remained married to his first wife, Hazel Hawke.

This isn’t the most surprising revelation, but to have it come via Hawke’s widow is surprising!

Bill Kelty, former ACTU secretary, said Mr Hawke often drank 20 beers during benders before giving up alcohol.

“Bob would drink, he would f**k somebody, and he would gamble until 2.30am or 3.30am in the morning – and then when the ACTU executive started at 9am in the morning, he was the second one there and he was fine,” he recalled.

Australia’s greatest Labor Prime Minister!

Hawke was in fact a very good reforming Prime Minister. He won four elections. No Labour PM since has won more than one.
