    You kinda get why voters are so fed up with politics when PM Turnbull votes against referring Dutton to the HC and a fortnight later Citizen Turnbull says "nah he's got to be referred".

        Or when Ley and Henderson speak passionately about the need to phase out live sheep exports, present a private members bill, and then vote to maintain status quo. Hypocrisy plus.

        @TurnbullMalcolm being strong after being crushed and destroyed means nothing. Revenge and vindication is what this man is after. If only those who ‘lead’ actually had the nations best interests at heart

        Seems to be a pattern with these Liberals, adamantly opposed to something until they're suddenly not.

        It also conclusively shows what most suspected - that referrals were made on political basis and not on the basis of merit of case. Turnbull wouldn't be pushing this if he thought there was no case to answer, so he was running protection before.

        True. But on the other hand, when you see any opportunity to potentially rid politics of @PeterDutton_MP, you have to seize it with both hands. Therefore I wholeheartedly agree with the newly enlightened Citizen Turnbull.

        People are fed up with specifically how the right wing operates. With hypocrisy and corruption. Its been 5 years of this shit show.

        Of course Turnbull was never in any position of authority in the LNP. He sold his soul to become PM.

        What risk losing the one vote they need to retain control? That's why Turnbull wouldn't do it.

        That's the whole point. He didn't refer Dutton, but threatened to resign if he was toppled, triggering a by-election and dropping a seat, and now it won't affect him he's all for referral. It's self interest every day.
