I missed 200 posts- #auspol says It's On on Monday - Dutton for PM, Bishop for deputy, but these are from 9 hours ago. Nothing on the news sites though?

#libspill has arguments going both ways, but someone is plotting.

Monday was cancelled, Dutton got in behind Turnbull. anonymous tip off, more like 2GB told to stir the pot.

If Bishop runs with Dutton it will look really bad for her. I don't believe that at all.

I work in her electorate and the number of apologists for her shithouse behaviour when it comes to the mesothelioma victims is astounding. They also don't seem to understand why the Nuremberg Defense is generally considered an insufficient excuse.

But, of course, it's even more of a liberal heartland than my parents electorate. I'm actually a little surprised she's one of the more "moderate" Libs considering how conservative the area is...

I'll ask for some screens. A friend of mine was giving me a blow by blow last night as people we know from uni (who are greens councillors et al) are "taking a break" from fb and there has been a war of unfriendship among greens in the Batman area. I think I know who orchestrated the leak at this point but I can't confirm it (it's a councillor).

But the Greens are a different third party they can't possibly do such things! And because of that, there's no reason to ever even acknowledge the possibility of such things happening and there are no internal struggles in the Greens. Not even in NSW.

I don't discount the likelihood that a Turnbull backer was the one spreading the rumours about Dutton and Bishop in order to force the two of them to pledge allegiance to him and squash the whole thing before next week.

What would Malcolm's threat be in this situation? Kick them out of his cabinet? Ask people for a vote so he can kick his deputy out? They would just say 'I think Malcolm will win the next election and have no plans' until someone who wants a spot in the next cabinet nominates them and if Malcolm tries to retaliate to that then he is out anyway.

He can pull his money out of the party and tell all of his mates to as well. The "moderates" are the ones that control the real money flowing into the LNP now.

If you're sick of podcasts where someone interviews a guest and they just listen to that guest talk without interrupting to go into their life story for half an hour, I can highly recommend Knackers and the Vadge.

The Annerley Taco Bell replaced a Sizzlers, which was a replacement of the old Bonanza steak house. This proves that the recurrent cockroaches-in-food problem is from the site being cursed, not the fault of Sizzlers, and losing Bonanza to a Sizzlers to a Taco Bell is both an excellent premise for an indie Australian film and a wider allegory of the Qld Labor party
