What would a Dutton Liberal leadership mean for the Liberals and the country?

He’s been president before?

I think he means it's proof they're just going to keep voting out Governments who don't work for the people, regardless of who the opposition is. At some point, a Government will want a second term and actually reject the current trickle-down economic settings (even if they're not announced like that any more).

How else to describe not taxing oil and gas exports because of the few construction jobs they provide in remote areas.

If Ditton doesn't win the next Federal election it will be the greatest Injustice since channel axing Gladiators in the 90s.

They also just re axed the reboot too

He’s been president before?

Yes - but I think he is president for different reasons this time. Last time he was president by a millimetre against a deeply unpopular candidate who ran a horrific campaign.

This time is a massive FU to the establishment. Voters said that the Democrats are just more of the same and we don't want the same. Trump is obviously not the answer but they don't care - they are willing to risk it all.

There is some weird shit going on in the world between youth in China refusing to work and citizens of the USA willing to blow up their own (for once) country.

There is an opportunity for progressive politics to take advantage of this - not sure anyone knows how yet. But the opening is there. Dan Andrews actually achieved it in Victoria - for all his haters he was an exceptionally popular and successful progressive politician. I doubt anyone could name a more progressive politician in recent Australian history.
