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

Love Malcolm Farr's turn of phrase here:

you couldn’t make this stuff up.

Cardiomegaly?

Tbh I'm surprised McKenzie believes Rinehart has a heart at all. I don't.

Glad I was sitting down when I read this. Bloke's quick to fling shit around, but is quick to disappear when it inevitably backfires and hits the fan.

There was a big difference in 2010/2013 in that Labor was bashing itself to pieces internally and Abbott was seen as effective against Gillard so given full tilt to beat her in 2013.

Albo is starting to look a lot like 2009 Kevin Rudd it has to be said. But I don't think there's anywhere near the same appetite to knife him the way that story played out. So if he wins, even if in minority, in 2025.... it's hard to see how the LNP would presume Dutton could move the needle even further by 2028 than where he already has it.

Nothing like Rudd except the nicknames opponents make up

Love Malcolm Farr's turn of phrase here:

NSW Eddie Obeid all over again

I reckon the first part is true and Labor end up in a minority.

I reckon Dutton gets knifed though once they have a sniff of victory.

Who's next up? Angus Taylor? Sussssan Ley? Dan Tehan? It obviously can't be Cash or Hume since they're senators. If forced to bet, I'd have my money on Taylor.
