    Fantastic. Great move. Well done Angus Taylor on making a decision which will no doubt continue the decline of the Liberal party.

  2. He is going to make a run for the top job. So the libs will be even more stuffed if he gets it.

    Fantastic. Great move. Well done Angus.

    Please tell me that it’s to become an OnlyFans creator so his self-gratification can be locked behind a paywall rather than piped directly to my phone each day by journalists.

  4. Is this man capable of actually smiling? It’s like he has a permanent frown on his face except when he’s smirking at his political opponents after something he’s said.

  5. > “But we can’t mince with words. The Liberal Party is at the worst position it has been since 1944, when the party was formed. That is a confronting reality and we cannot ignore it.”

    Oh cool, I assume this means that you’re stopping with the culture war circus?

    > Taylor says the Liberal party must act quickly to “protect the Australian way of life”

    Oh nevermind, well done Angus once again

  6. Great move to overshadow genocide inciter Herzog.

    Just as it is a great move for Minns fascist police brutality to have overshadowed Herzog in the last 2 days.

  7. Labor just can’t have a bad week, every time they take flak for something (justified or not) the coalition comes in to remind everyone how much of a shitshow they are.

  8. First there was Liz Truss vs. Lettuce.

    Now it’s Sussan Ley vs. Soufflé – who will last longer??

    EDIT: Okay this was just a joke because soufflé rhymes but Google tells me the shelf life of a soufflé is like 90 minutes. So Ley might win this one.

  9. to be fair, angus taylor is like the only LNP name we still recognise a bit, everyone else has gone off the deep end or been in power already.

  10. All well and good until “Kiss Kiss (XX) My Arse” comes on and Pauline runs into the party room with a Money In The Bank briefcase.

  11. Labor coping shit from people for having a war criminal welcomed

    Libs: BUT HOW CAN I MAKE THIS ABOUT ME

  12. Angus Taylor as Liberal leader could challenge the comedic heights of the Alexander Downer years, er, months.

  13. Let’s face it, Scomo was the bottom of the barrel.

    They had to scrape Dutton out of the residue and splinters.

    Ley was spilled debris congealed underneath the barrel.

    If they’re serving us Angus Taylor then we really should have reported the Liberal party for hazardous sanitation practices by now.
