I've no doubt she does know that, but gotta toe the editorial line and create a narrative etc.

If John Hewson won in 1993 the Liberals might actually be responsible for some economic reform and we would have never had Howard

He wasn’t quite so wet back then though, and the electorate had reform fatigue

He would not have done half the shit Howard did.
It is often overlooked Howard is one of the worst treasurers Australia has ever had.
Is Q&A the worst show on television (excluding Sky)?

It's still interesting, sometimes. Basically the only show on TV where the public get to ask questions, and have politicians/famous/notable people debate that topic live on air.
It was much better with Tony Jones as host.
It is all a bit fabricated for mine. It seems like it is way to easy to manipulate the narrative and it spends too much time at the fringes.
As others have noted - maybe Mr Plod just ain't that smart.
"Here lies a big potential clue about Dutton. Unlike Marvel antiheroes – usually evil geniuses – is it possible that Dutton simply isn’t that smart? Equally possible, too, is we are so used to the “evil genius” trope that we can’t see “trying but not that bright” when it is staring us in the face."
That this idiot is the Federal Opposition Leader is bad news for all of us and not just Labor supporters.

In any other context, the Albanese government could have expected to be wedged between national security and social security this week – with a debate on spending priorities and its willingness to do so much in one area and so little in another. That context, though, would depend on a competent...

How do you bring back a program that's still running?Spud really is one of the great thinkers of our time
But we all know it's just more bullshit from an opposition that is just utterly incompetent and bereft of ideas.

He's closer to Liberace than he is an evil genius.
Pretty much epitomises Hanlon's Razor. And the Peter Principle may as well have been named after him.

I don't know that he does, and not having a crack at all but I think that's an easy out for Dutton.
I believe he is every bit as vile and nasty as he appears. I don't think he's particularly intelligent but I also don't think for one minute he has altruistic intentions. He's punching down because he thinks that's where the votes are, not as a result of stupidity but because he thinks that slapping the battlers around a bit helps him win the entitled mob. And by extension that makes him a scumbag.

Maybe I should have expressed that differently.
I agree that he's a pretty malicious character, but stupidity appears to drive his decision-making even more than malice does.
The anti-gay marriage song proposal kinda sums the man up.

He is a product of the modern Liberal party. Big on slogans and very small on new ideas.
The only actual policy I can think of from the Liberals is the NEG. And they sacked Turnbull because of it.
Howard had a near limitless store of rat cunning, Turnbull was educated and ambitious, Abbott like Trump or BoJo was fixed in the nations id, or at least the boomer segments, and Morrison was an unabashed opportunist and likely sociopath.As others have noted - maybe Mr Plod just ain't that smart.

What each and all had at least temporarily, was the full weight of the national media behind them.
So even if they were low calibre people, dishonest, cheating, thieving, incompetents, they never had to do the real heavy lifting with the public.
Hence why we've seen a decline in political sense and instincts amongst the Liberal leadership.
And now that their demographic advantage is gone, someone like Turnbull looks positively statesman like compared to what remains.
Their media cheerleaders have no pull, their talent has washed out, or been sandbagged by lunatics. Dutton is just a symptom of these deeper problems.
That is a very good take re the media. They have had it so easy for so long they have forgotten what is required and completely take the electorate for granted accordingly.

Assuming Dutton might be smart then being surprised he isn’t? Surely it should be the reverse?
