'Ignore them': Liberal MP issues warning to colleagues who listen to conservative media

 

Liberal MP Craig Laundy says too many of his own colleagues are listening to right-wing commentators, warning they risk ending up out of step with mainstream Australia.
The high-profile moderate backbencher said the party had been pushed into toppling Malcolm Turnbull by conservative media voices and this trend could become cemented in Liberal Party policies unless MPs started ignoring what he said were fringe views.

He specifically pointed to commentators “dominating The Australian newspaper and Sky [News] after 6pm”.

 

LIBERALS DESTROYED. SPLIT NEXT?

The Liberals were destroyed in the Wentworth byelection, suffering its worst swing ever. But something else was smashed yesterday - all Liberal hopes of survival at the next election. Now watch for a Liberal split as some blame this disaster on the Liberals lacking all sense of conviction; others on the Liberals moving too far Right.

Bolt's weird isn't he?  He argues like Monty Python's Black Knight that it's no time for compromise after the Wentworth drubbing of a 20+% swing still acting as if it were a message wanting the Conservatives to take over rather than having dug a deeper hole for the party than they already have. No compromise he says but in the same breathe arguing "But even the conservative Liberals face tough questions. Most know how to demand, but not how to persaude."Bolt
 It seems he's a contradiction arguing for a necessary compromise rather than the traditional persuasion by heated threat. What he does reveal is that a new young generation of conservatives will emerge in no short time and will form what won't be the Liberal Party.  However, he doesn't dare reveal its name The IPA Party who have always been the string pullers of the current conservative battlers in the Monkey Pod Room Abbott, Dutton, Corman, Abetz, Andrews and a few others. Bolt is simply calling for the death of the Liberals as we know them with the disenchanted too gutless to split.
Abbott was always there wouldn't leave with a punch drunk mix of political revenge and hope of a comeback sometime after 2025 his faith in miracles over intelligence has never faltered thinking he will still be exonerated in history by continuing to bear his personal cross up his personal Calvary to the sound of electorate booing.
In the meantime Andrew Bolt is pretending to be a moderate commentator gone into hiding saying " some blame this disaster on the Liberals lacking all sense of conviction; others on the Liberals moving too far Right."Bolt
One might ask given his enthusiasm for James Patterson and Tim Wilson is he having his son who it so happens also works for the IPA groomed?

  Wentworth byelection: Kerryn Phelps kicks Liberals into minority government

  Independent Kerryn Phelps has ended the Liberal Party's dominance in the blue-ribbon Sydney seat of Wentworth, plunging Prime Minister Scott Morrison into minority government.
The swing against the government was so significant, at least 20 per cent, that within 90 minutes of polls closing it was clear that Liberal candidate Dave Sharma could not win the seat.

  Defeat was 'big price' for leadership coup, Morrison admits

 Liberal Party MPs say their historic Wentworth by-election result is "devastating" and represents the price of a leadership spill, as the blue-ribbon electorate changes for the first time in decades

The strongest Political swing against any government in history and Andrew Bolt called it close!!  Morrison spoke at the Intercontinental in Double Bay and Phelps celebrated at the Bondi Life Saving Club. That says it all Australia.
