Political party leadership - any party - is a poison chalice well deserved by the self-servers and glory hunters who go after it. Particularly in the Liberal party.

Already the word is out that sharks are circling Angus Taylor because he is a threat to the future power of the ‘left within the Liberal Party’. It is taken for granted that sooner or later there will be a coup against the just selected leader. Leadership of the Liberal Party is about as secure as that of the Roman Emperors: at least since John Howard.

The revolving door leadership of the Liberal Party is very likely to be one reason for its wipe out. The ALP is more disciplined. Liberals don't bother to hide that they are interested only in themselves, not the country or the people.

Andrew Hastie, hailed by some as a good deal simply because he was in the SAS (they don't say how that translates to politics) decided against standing for leadership - again for personal reasons - now is reported as “having a desire to lead”. The egos and self-interest of these taxpayer-funded clowns is mind-boggling.

Artificial Intelligence is talked of as a threat to many types of work. We need something to threaten these bastards and get them back on the ball and earning their money, perks, and massive retirement benefits.

ttbn,

You call the Greens idiots and loons for showing compassion for the 50,000 innocent Palestinians murdered by the Zionists death squads.
As for your claim; "not many people at all support the Greens" Do you consider over 2.5 million votes nation wide as "not many". Not like the terds you support, who in South Australia received 2.8% of the popular vote in the Senate ,compared to the Greens 12.7%

The laugh one more is on YOU, in 2019 you admitted contributing finically to the Corny Banana Party, and got ripped off. This time you were trumpeting the Fat Clive Party, were you ripped off again? No fool like an Old (Fart) fool!

The big taxing, Little Johnny Howard was Dud Dutton's political idol. They now have something in common, they were both a-holed from their seat's by the Australian people. 'Squizzy' Taylor had a slight call over Squeaky Ley as the most ineffective Opposition front bencher in the last Parliament, Albo and Jimmy ran rings around both. Can't wait for Question Time in the new Parliament, should be a humdinger with the bunch of wacko's from the Noalition asking questions. Ihey might go like this, Noalition MP; "My question is to the Prime Minister, Oh No! Sorry Mr Speaker, I can't ask a question now, I've just wet my pants!"

I wonder if, with all the negative reporting about American Politics, interpretation could have influenced young voters in Australia.
Was the much quoted incompetent management & failure failure of the "Liberals" reflecting on the Australian term ? Even the party colours of blue vs red are reversed. Far fetched thinking ? Perhaps but not entirely impossible either !
