The winners and losers from Fridays debacle

Who were the winners?

  • Scott Morrison and Josh Frydenburg obviously.  Well done to Patricia Karvelas of now ABC fame for saying Frydenburg would win in in a canter which he did.
  • Malcolm Turnbull well yes he was defeated however he finally showed brilliant political skills. He justly asked for a petition of 43 signatures  as the conspirators claimed majority support. That it took so long to get should have led some people to think the numbers for Dutton were nowhere near as strong as they thought. The time involved allowed enough time for Morrison to garner the numbers which he did.
  • The ABC. Their coverage was outstanding on this. It does help when you have that much talent to work with. I have a new found respect for PK now.
  • The biggest winner of course is Bill Shorten and the ALP


Who were the losers?
There are a lot of them.

  • Peter Dutton. His limitations as a politician was heavily exposed. A person who listen and talks too much to shock jocks and tells them one thing when claiming another was exposed badly by Ray Hadley verbal slip. He will undoubtedly lose his seat now being  justly seen as a wrecker.The man who said Longman was in the bag had no political skills and his no GST on electricity for some but not all showed his economic understanding was very poor.
  • Tony Abbott is now toxic. When the Government lose in a landslide as they surely must this man is front and centre on why. Hypocrisy has never had a better candidate
  • Mathias Cormann, Mitch Fifield and Michaela Cash. They to put it brutally were wood-ducks who could not count.
  • 2GB  People such as Alan Jones and Ray Hadley were heavily involved in this. Yet after all this they have destroyed the Liberal party and their man did not get up.
  • Andrew Bolt, Peta Credlin, Sky 'after dark', News corp. See 2GB

A must read from the indefatigable Kevin Bonham.

if the Australian electorate is not hypocritical then the Libs will lose the next election in a landslide.
