On Sky, Andrew Bolt just said if Dutton loses, LNP has no candidate worthy of leader 🤣
I think, or more hope, Sky propagandists are as usual wrong.
I think there might be some strong Liberals that could come right into the foreground.
Now that the 2010's crowd are finally getting shoved to the side, the Liberals might have enough clear air, or a clean enough slate, to reinvent and renew themselves to be more representative of the direction and attitudes of the country today.
Problem they've had since Abbott, has been this idea they've loosely held of a natural line of succession. That Turnbull had to have his turn, Dutton the same, Friedenberg was also expected to have a turn as Party leader along the same vein. Morrison was definitely the wild card in that though.
A Member i'll be watching is Andrew Hastie, he seems a good operator, shit opinions on the world, but competence is important, especially in a time for rebuilding a Party, which the Libs obviously need to do.
Former Labor minister Graham Richardson, who hasn’t lost his talent for the one-liner, said the Liberals have got to ask themselves where do we go now?
“We’ve tried Dutton - what else have we got? Well not much because if Angus Taylor is the answer, it’s a stupid question.”

Hahaha, i've heard nothing but dunks on Taylor, its been pretty funny. There'll be a collective national groan if they select him i think.
