        It's really a 'grey area' as to why @TurnbullMalcolm's slide has occured.

        Turnbull has not slid because of Barnaby. Or Abbott @TurnbullMalcolm has proven again and again . he is not a capable leader. he defends the indefensible time and time again. he showed voters early on he has sold his soul. he has proven to be politically incompetent

        For all his flaws, and as we’ve come to know Malcolm has many, there isn’t a world in which Australia becomes a better place under a Shorten Government. #auspol

        Sadly I feel you are right.....but it’s nice to know he’s got a big dose of karma owed to him.....which will be repaid with interest I hope.

        While we have governments that have knee jerk reactions to media and don’t remain focussed on running the country we will never get out of this quagmire. This personal sniping, innuendo, pure nastiness belittles us all. People are hurting out there and government needs to respond

        Neither above 40 shows what a lack of proper statesmen we have in Australia. Turnbull is lucky Shorten is disliked by so many. If Labor woke up and changed leaders they could romp in the next election.

        Today #Newspoll ALP 38% (+1%), Greens 9% (-1%), Libs 34%, Nats 3%, PHON 7% (-1), others 9%. ALP 53% v L/NP 47%. If an election was being held today Labor 85 (+16) seats Coalition 60 (-16) seats others 5 seats. 28th loss in a row for Malcolm Turnbull. #AusPol

        Another Tony Abbott situation - never about the country - just me-me-me-blah-blah-blah. They brought their situations on themselves - they should just stop talking and do some work for their electorates. We Dont Want To Hear Them!

        People don’t like turnbull. He has no connection or empathy with voters and they know it.
