why bag out therese if she has had a similar path to turnbull? wouldn't she be an equally good example, especially considering that she makes her money from helping the long-term unemployed re-enter the workforce?

Except Turnbull never treated his employees like shit unlike Teresa, she hearts John Howard's Workchoice.

Indeed...what a fucken genius... he basically did nothing, riding on the past success of Hawk. That brings me to my next point, one thing Labor is good at is destroying themselves. Ironically, its because of Keating that the Labor party will forever be split.
I suggest you go read up on Keating, you'll find he didn't, in fact, do nothing but rather he did a fair bit, given the four years afforded to him.

Unlike Labor, the Liberal party has a completely different culture. We don't think about personal gain, its about the party and the well-being of our nation. That is why Turnbull never did what Keating did - he had too much honour and would rather keep the party intact.
The Liberals' successful leaders have held onto power and cut off anyone at the knees who could possibly ever challenge them. Hence why Menzies could hold on for 20+ years. To say that McMahon, Fraser, Peacock, Howard, Hewson and even your beloved Turnbull have never undermined another leader so as to deliver power to themselves is incredibly ignorant.

Anyways... no time for leftist rubbish, Labor will fall like the pathetic maggots they are.
117 years on and Labor's still not fallen, so don't hold your breath.

I've started to appreciate Howard in retrospect :(
Stability. Modesty. Conservatism.

isn't there meant to be something in the costello memoirs about turnbull, e.g. leaks and other selfish antics.

does anyone know how true it is that turnbull was seeking to be a labor senator in the 90s?

A meeting was organised with Keating about it. Nothing really came of it. He's only ever been a member of the Liberal Party. Seems to me that the meeting was more a courtesy than anything else, perhaps a way to build business relationships rather than a serious tilt at being a Federal Senator.

Am I the only one who thinks that Bishop's mad?
Look at those crazy eyes!
See is insane to the core imo. The frigid, awkward, semi-aggressive way she conducts herself in interviews - it's just blar. She's just a pants suit. A fascist drone with a stale ideology, no ideas of her own, and no likability
