Coalition sinks from 'box seat' to prospect of losing seats
Voters continue to abandon Peter Dutton with latest polling showing the coalition faces the prospect of losing seats on May 3.www.thenewdaily.com.au
Dutton reputably is a really nice bloke and liked within the Liberal party unlike Morrison who was unpopular with the other MPs.Well I did say he was unelectable, like silly Billie.
The good thing is, we will get to see some great theatre next term, it should be epic IMO.
I agree with you Knobby, Angus taylor really isn't ministerial level IMO, the biggest problem the coalition had was losing Morrison and Frydenberg, as you say Morrison wasn't liked by the other MP's or by the media.Dutton reputably is a really nice bloke and liked within the Liberal party unlike Morrison who was unpopular with the other MPs.
He has got a bit of baggage though like you say.
Generally, I just think the Libs don't look ready.
Their gas plan is half baked, they don't seem to have any exciting policies to change things, the public service working from home fiasco - If it was was Howard he would have had clear arguments and been able to argue the case. The shadow ministers have generally been poor speakers.
I heard one of them today talk about the carbon emissions and he was clear about 2030, 2035 and 2050 and the public service plans and the commentators were all saying why can't the rest of them be clear instead of obfuscating.
Their treasurer Angus Taylor is B team standard. He could mount some arguments but just comes across as a whinger with no solutions. He has generally been hopeless. Honestly they need someone else.
And finally, the Trump instability gives the incumbents the advantage which is unfortunate for Dutton.
I know she hires a lot of the women, not sure about the men. Does suck a bit.Apparently, Dutton is at some risk of losing his seat, he only holds it on a 1.7% margin.
If he gets into Parliament but not government I expect an early exit and a job with Gina.
IMO the problem the left leaning Govt's have, they usually come up with great social agendas, but don't come up with ways to fund them.I'm not a fan of Albanese, but Dutton's constant calling him weak and the government our worst ever is wearing very thin.
I understand that as opposition leader he should be criticizing the government, but in the lead up to an election he has to come up with alternatives as well. What he has offered so far is rubbish.
Every time I see him on TV, he is pumping fuel. Is he getting some practice in for a job after the election?
Yes, it's easy to talk tough when there is no responsibility to act.I'm not a fan of Albanese, but Dutton's constant calling him weak and the government our worst ever is wearing very thin.

I like his policy for gas reservation, but that is the only one. I'd like Labor to copy this, but Bowen is too pig headed.Dutton is all bluff and bluster and very little constructive policy in my opinion.
That's what Dutton doesn't seem to understand, the electorate will only accept nuclear if there is no other option, until then it will just polarise people and there is no win in that.Poll shock for Dutton as his electorate rejects Nuclear plans.
Irks me as well.Dutton's plans to wind back some of Labor's better policies like vehicle efficiency really irk me.
@Knobby22 typical Liberal thinking that they are born to rule but only offer negativity and nothing of substance.Irks me as well.
Paraphrasing " We are all for vehicle efficiency but Labor's way is not the right way to do this"
Well the obvious next question is what he would do? All negative no answers.
We import 90% of our fuel and cannot rely in this changing world to be too reliant on it. No big thinking. No policy....doesn't deserve to win election.
Don't hold your breath, last election I sent several emails to my local member.@Knobby22 typical Liberal thinking that they are born to rule but only offer negativity and nothing of substance.
Looking at a third party to vote for in the coming election, one that actually answers our questions that we e-mailed to all 3 some time ago.
Red and Blue have not bothered to reply.
I feel for her. She wants to buy a house in Melbourne but if she doesn't get in what will she do with it? Hard to manage from London.Please get the tissues out, some heart rendering news. The Liberal candidate for Kooyong, a nepo baby from the Hamer dynasty is running on a help the renter ticket. From the Saturday Paper.
