    A by-election in Sydney’s eastern suburbs is no place to test the national temperature, any more than dipping your toe into a glass of chardonnay at the Bondi Trattoria can tell you if it’s warm enough for a swim, writes Nick Cater #auspolhttps://bit.ly/2CYCzTP

        Liberal seat since Roman times. 20% swing against the government the largest ever. But nothing to see here says Liberal Party spin merchant. Hilarious.

        Now who's the divisive force that keeps pitching the "real Australia" against the "fake Australia"?

        No Wentworth had a 19% swing. The rest of Australia will have a 10% swing.

        Nic Cater? Lives in a waterside apartment at Kirribilli but attacks the wealthy on the opposite side of the harbour? Kirribilli is the blue ribbon safe seat or Nth Sydney Nic old boy. Hockey was a dill but not far right and your current MP is an openly Gay man! NOT FAR RIGHT!

        Even the well heeled can have a conscience. The Liberal Party is currently irrelevant. Call an election and get out of the way. Cater can keep on howling at the moon.

        Well said! Climate change resonates until it adds 400 dollars to your annual energy bill - maybe not so important in Double Pay!
