Ah, the good old Spectator.

With Rowan Dean at the helm what can we expect?

He used to be a standard conservative commentator.
Who sometimes came up with a reasonable analysis.
Now he's morphed into a maniacal right-wing
Mark Latham. What a pity.

The frightening part of all this is while Turnbul has a commanding lead over Shorten for the top job, the recent results pretty much guarantee a change if Trunbul stays, further confirming we are still on the path of a race to the bottom.

Personally, I would like to see Dutton in the top job, simply because he has balls, or Abbott as he would have learned and would be unlikely to kick any more own goals, But either way, nothing short of a balls out approach will save us as a nation as I have little doubt we are heading for a hiding to nothing if nothing changes.

Welfare out of control, immigration out of control and putting huge strain on welfare. Let's face it, when gay marriage and the number of women in parliament are the lead topics up for discussion, we have a major problem.
Does anyone remember when we had a car industry? Seems our polloies don't.

Hi there REHCTUB...

Butch you sure paint a rosy picture for our political future, if Labour gain government. And sadly I cannot find a single thing you've said, that I could possibly take issue with?

My loathing for Malcolm TURNBULL knows no limits, I believe he has taken on the PM's role purely to feed his own hubris, and bugger the Australian people. The only good thing - a ridiculous thing to say I know - TURNBULL will get the biggest kicking of his life come the election. In the mean time he will've utterly destroy the LNP, single handed.

Perhaps in his own narcissistic way, that was his intention all along? I agree, absolutely with you; MR DUTTON or perhaps a 'reined in' Tony ABBOTT as the next leader, who will inject some conservatism back into the Party and who has the guts to fight for what's right.

Why do you want conservatism? And why do you think it would be attractive to voters?

Dear Butch,

Are you for real?

It was Abbott and Hockey who put paid to the car industry, it was Abbott who sunk a mining tax that might have saved some of the wealth and energy we have so willingly handed over to overseas corporations, it was Howard who drove vast increases in migration rates and 457s to appease big business donors.

Gina Rinehart employs over 1700 of them at one site alone.

It wasn't just 'some pollies' at all.

Perth has a youth unemployment rate of over 15%. Dutton had said he would curtail 457s in such areas but since then Perth has seen nearly 2000 more take up work in the city. It has to stop.

Why do you want the same crew who oversaw all this to get another go doing more of the same?

ALP started incompetence & the LNP is hell-bent on trying to perfect it.
