I'm in Sydney, though I couldn't put anyone up either.

An embarrassing portion of my day is dedicated to checking news in the hope that they've rolled him. God, he's such an asshole.

I quite like Gillard. She did fail on gay marriage, but there were no other politicians at the time making an attempt either. I don't even think it was on any of the major parties' platforms (except the Greens.) She also was elected into a minority government and would've lost a lot of political capital trying to push it through.

The Labor Party assumes that Malcolm Turnbull is coming, if not next week, then soon. Bill Shorten and his team have accepted it and they are getting ready.

Fairly quickly after a Liberal leadership change, a Labor source says,
they will make a swing to the left,
believing that the way Turnbull PM responds will “show the latte sippers he’s not really one of them”.

...

But it is Turnbull’s “small l” liberal appeal to a large section of the electorate at present supporting Labor that should give Shorten nightmares.

Labor would need to
wedge Turnbull so his requirement to keep coalition conservatives on side becomes obvious.

I'm so looking forward to this.

In post 246, RichardGHP wrote:If I were Abbott, I'd go about obtaining a confidence motion from the caucus (or even Parliament if the Liberals have the requisite numbers) to claim my mandate.

Strong-arming the caucus members into voting for you would only really serve to piss them off. Worse, it looks desperate.

In post 249, Espeonage wrote:As someone that has lived in Turnball's electorate, I know many people that vote for him in his seat but Labor in the Senate just because he comes across as a capable politician even though they are not really Lib voters.

Live in Turnbull's electorate, can confirm.

Actually, the numbers are pretty tight as currently reported. A mistake would likely prove decisive.
