Will the Libs use their freedom to move back towards the pragmatic centre and bring the teals back into the fold (or replace them with better-supported candidates of a similarly moderate persuasion), or will they instead invite One Nation and Family First to dance?
Its the million dollar question isn’t it. But i hope their new leader has seen reason, and understood good policy necessarily means a lretty central line most of the time, (by no means not all the time).
So i’d hope this is a sign that Sussan Ley, (the second ‘s’ is so dumb, next she’s gona be asking for her own pronouns… ;) /j), is trying to steer the party to the centre. Whether they actually sit down and develop any good policy in that process is a genuine hope i hold.
Good policy, even if i disagree with its direction, will always be better for the nation and the competition of ideas than the trollip they’ve ‘mostly’ been coming out with for most of the last decade or more.
I knew that, its weird, and not in a good way. But i also know that people can be weird in some ways but surprisingly reasonable and good, even talented, with other subjects.
Nobody’s experience leaves them with all the faculties needed to run a country or create an effective alternative government.
Part of her job will be selecting people for her frontbench that make up for her own deficiencies. If she turns out to be a better leader than i expect she’ll be very good at this, and maybe pick some people who can set her on an even keel when the numerology starts slippin into the mix.

You expect reason from someone that changes the spelling of her name, and I’m not making this up, because of numerology? OK.

I’m always happy to be surprised by people.
