Why would the Libs vote Dutton as leader when they need to move more to the centre to be a shot at the next election?
And the fact he’s had a charisma bypass :-).

The only reason the Libs would elect him is as an attack dog, the same as TonedAbs in opposition who when he became PM was terrible at the job. And if they do, they’re showing that they haven’t listened.

That said, slim pickings for alternatives right now.

He is pretty much unelectable. If the Lib think tanks thought they had a problem with ScoMo and the women vote at this election, just wait till Dutton is in the big chair [emoji23]

It won't happen for a variety of reasons, but the Libs could do a lot worse than Andrew Constance.

Constance butted beads with leadership in NSW, particularly Barilaro but egos will always exist in politics. He might be a bit fresh faced as a Fed but I agree he’s a credible future leader.

Shows how disillusioned Australia have become with the two parties when 1.4million people voted for the Greens. Labour and Liberal have a fantastic opportunity moving forward to show the people they actually give a shit about the country instead of bickering like kindergarten kids between themselves.
I really hope they can do it.

No idea. But looks like there's a TAFE course on how to be a noisy loser. Instead of basing these clowns on their actions in government, you would rather white ant away on the basis of a extinct political ideology.

Per previous - they are (were?) both clowns. But I'm happy to judge on outcomes rather than some make believe shit.

Anyways. Need a tissue?
Hahaha no thanks mate. TAFE isn’t my thing. No need for tissues but I just can’t wait to see what amazing job your pals do in government after all of the crap, sad memes and attack cat links we’ve been subjected to by you and others here

The idiots think they need someone from the right. Let them vote for Dutton. They must be listening to Paul Murray, Rita Panahi etc.
The vast majority of voters want someone from the right. The lefty attitude of Morrison contributed to their downfall.
The last thing we need is another woke socialist party taking the reins.

What did he lie about to cover his gaffes?
Press: Mr. Albanese, what are the 6 points of your NDIS policy?

Albo: ummm.. aaaahh .. umm .. our Policy will focus on people .. umm … aaah

Press: But Mr. Albanese … what is the policy?

Albo: Umm .. aaaahhh. … it’s the one Bill Shorten detailed.

Press: But Mr. Albanese … what is the policy?

Albo: aaahh .. umm ..People will be the centre of our NDIS Policy … umm …. Aaahh.

Press: But Mr. Albanese … what is the policy?

Press: Mr. Albanese … Mr. Albanese …what is the policy?

Albo : alll right everyone … gotta go!

A FEW DAYS LATER

Press: Mr. Albanese … why didn’t you know your own NDIS Policy?

Albo: i did know it … but I wasn’t given a chance to go through it

Do you want more examples?

The Murdoch media also contributed, even now they aren't handling defeat well.

That he knew the steps of his policies prior to being handed a note & that he didn’t say the Australia border was closed. There was one or more but I can’t recall from the top of my head. You won’t read about them on the ABC

It could also come down the Lib/Nat deals. For many years the Nats have threatened to split from the LNP. They could have threatened to split if they didn't elect someone more conservative, which would have screwed any chance of the Libs getting back in power. Pretty much damned either way it seems.

Not even close. The majority of voters want a charasmatic, intelligent, authentic, centrist

That’s the problem with the whole system.
Constant deals and favours and plate spinning.
Leaves little space for actually doing things to take the country forward. Same everywhere though and hardly unique to Australia. The fleas come with the dog.
