    Federal Election

    Cheaper to take drugs than drink

    2013 Federal election

    My understanding is that it would be a rank and file vote. As for who, I would love to see an Albo/Plibersek leadership team, but factionally it's just not going to happen. I really like Albo and think he'd be really effective against Abbot, but I'm just not sure if he's PM material, but for...
