        If people can't see it has been Abbott behind the last 10yrs of dragging Australia down, you really have to wake up.

        Turnbull has been the destabilising influence in the party ever since he entered parliament. He is a backstabbing, narcissistic individual.

        Most Australians agree with my view on the corrupt moron. Sorry you have been fooled by the mockingbird media.

        The fool is you and your ideological warped sense of value. @TurnbullMalcolm took a 14 seat majority down to 1. It’s simple maths. Do your homework!

        Had Abbott been left as PM the LNP wouldve lost 10-12 seats in the parliament. Abbott would've been vanquished by the electorate & would hopefully have gotten the message & resigned from office. But instead he stuck around to exact his revenge...a team player.

        So on your calculations a @TonyAbbottMHR lead party would have out poled @TurnbullMalcolm which he lead to a 1 seat majority. Interesting, however we will never know.

        Yeah? Loss of base due to drift left would balance that argument. Rise of PHON, Bernadi etc. If only choice is two left parties (one very left backed by green communists, the other the libs with a left lean) then what choice do you give?

        The LNP need to get rid of the Clown, the Spud and and that weird ‘Weekend at Bernie’s ‘ Abetz to even be close to winning the election

        Because promoting gay marriage, feminism, anti-white racism, and increasing non-European migration is "drifting to the right" Haha
