Synthbuttrange posted:Ugh is he seriously making a tilt for leadership again When Turnbull challenged he gave "30 consecutive Newspoll losses" as one reason for ousting Abbott. Turnbull's about halfway to meeting that criteria now too, so this time next year we could see a challenge shortly before a Federal election, just to lock in the whole first-as-tragedy-then-as-farce thing that national politics has become.

Anidav posted:All these facebook comments on the Liberal Party page clamouring for the return of Peter Costello to save them I picture Costello chilling on a beach at his pacific island holiday home, the waves lapping against his feet- Cocktail in one hand, and today's paper on the table. He scrolls through the Liberal FB comments on his platinum Iphone, shakes his head, and sips his drink. "lol gently caress that". The first comment I see on their FB page: "Whilst left wing Malcolm continues to be PM and push this party to the left. I like many other conservatives will never vote for you again until there is a conservative change. Good luck in the political wilderness after the next election." Oh boy it's gonna be good.

(I should probably go to my first party meeting and ask them, but the lady I talked to on the phone didn't seem to want to talk about it for reasons).

Re: The Coalition are hosed and cannot win the next election. The ALP can win the next election basically on Queensland alone and that is absolutely wild given how much this state fluctuates between kicking out fascists like Campbell Newman to absolutely loving them like Pauline Hanson. Labor is on 69 and even if the ALP vote softens elsewhere, All the ALP needs to form government is basically Queensland seats. Polling aggregation shows that they are going to get this plus more  In fact the LNP are so hosed that they are currently losing the 2PP in every state including NSW and QLD - a state with a separate election looming that shows the LNP forming a government. Even if you assume QLD might change its mind and suddenly love LNP again, say after the state election; the LNP still loses out federally:  WA is loving bleeding seats, Tasmania and the NT are on ALP lockdown, NSW is slowly drifting and Victoria is probably not going to move one way or the other. We are basically with a dead government one year on. There are no real achievements here and this government is probably the most inactive and regressive in modern history, completely destroying climate science and lowering wages of poor people for fun. Good riddance.

When you look at that 2PP vote for NSW and look at the seats held you can see that Abbott has a stopped-clock point about how poo poo the Liberals are at selecting candidates.

Why didn't the rest of the Green MP's vote for it? The PLC upheld the existing policy position. As far as I'm concerned the rest of party room was going rogue by negotiating. The question is ultimately who determines policy - the party or the MPs?
