Imagine you are part of the government. you have recently discarded your leader and thus Prime Minister. what is the last thing you would want.
A change in National Party leadership.
Yet Barnaby Joyce is stalkng the present National Party leader. Even that great radio intellectual giant Ray Hadley is on the act.
A change in leadership would simply exacerbate the perception the government is a disorganised rabble..
Joyce's political judgement has been 'poor' indeed 'very poor' since he actively adopted adultery .
The thought that McCormack would background Ray Hadley is laughable unless you believe he has the judgement of Joyce.
Joyce is yesterday's man. He has been found out. He would be easy fodder for the ALP.
Kevin hogan is sitting on the crossbench because he realises this is a much better look for him to succeed politically. (It also helps he believes in his stand as well).
It doesn't matter if you have a leadership spill after the Wentworth by-election the voters there already know Joyce is stalking so the damage is done.
This is yet another reason to toss the government out.
