It's great, the ultra right wing believe they have a better chance with Dutton as PM than Malcolm. In saying that, they would win QLD aye. These are the same group of morons that want to reverse the gay marriage legislation and make abortion illegal and that's just for starters. Mind you they have got their way as we have gone back to dial up internet access and put as back a few decades with their NBN.

If Dutton get's to become PM it will be interesting what Sharkie and McGowan do as I can't see them voting with Mr Potato Head.

It's back on. Dutton has advised Turnbull that he's lost the confidence of the party room and called for a spill meeting.

According to Eddie on MMM, Cash, Corman and 1 other are on their way to Mal to tell him they're changing sides.

OK folks,

Remember, when we change prime ministers it's time to change the smoke alarm battery

I'm so glad the Mad Misogynist Monk has been true to his words that is, he will not try undermine Malcolm Turnbull after being deposed. Such a nice man, a man of his words.

:D :D

The Mad Misogynist Monk has assisted in putting Labour in poll position at this juncture of the political process.

Gawn. This is great viewing. Love seeing the Libs implode. God, not even the ALP could do such things :D :wink:

At least one more Nationals MP has said that he won't be part of a Peter Dutton government.

This is a government that has a majority of one.

Today is the last sitting day for 2 weeks isn't it? So if Mal holds out today, then refers Dutton to the high court re eligibility, the whole joint will blow up.

It's a sad day for Australia and the Liberal Party when some within your party believe because you aren't a climate change denier or opposed to gay marriage you have taken the party to far to the left.

I mean heaven help us having a Prime Minister who supports common sense and equality.

The loony brigade are officially running the asylum now.

I'm hoping and praying that happens. It won't save his prime ministership, but he can destroy Dutton's. Do it, Malcolm!

Well, either way the LNP leadership will remain vacant for a while longer. My many disenchanted LNP-voting friends are already flagging in droves that they will vote Green. Interesting times.
