After the Aston by-election disaster Peter Dutton probably thought a visit to Alice Springs was a winner. He could go on to his law and order persona and be on a winner.
Wrong. His mouth ran away from him. He alleged children were going back to sexxual abusers at night. One local reporter asked him what data he was basing this on. Dutton hurled abuse at him because he had no data to back his argument with. Several ALP politicians asked him to tell the local police about these accusations as you must.
In essence a instant vote winner turned into a vote loser.
At his side was Jacinta Price. I have seen her interviewed by Sarah Ferguson and David Speers and on the radio by Hamish McDonald and she is very unimpressive. None were aggressive nd all let her say what she wanted to however all followed up and Price was flummoxed.
Not a great week for the Opposition.
