I look forward to more of these principled policy debates between these two intellectual titans.
Great job, well done Anus.
Knives out, c’mon Hastie.
Just a reminder Taylor stole 540mill in tax payer dollars and put it in his property portfolio
Taylor seems intent on losing the next election to PHON, and then the Libs will make Hastie leader but by then it’ll be too late.
At least Hastie seems like he understands why people are saying “a pox upon both your houses,” and wants to do something about it.
Let’s see how far Hastie’s ideas get with the Murdoch media.
And if Albo doesn’t do something to change the investment in real estate for the wealthy, many of his lower socio-economic voters will abandon Labor and go for PHON.
EDIT: and for all those assuming I vote Libs or PHON, how wrong you are.
Absolutely cancerous to society.
Yes, we had Lib Spill, but what about second Lib Spill?
What’s the over/under on another spill within 2 months?
Independent thought alarm
What will Moira do?
Legitimately couldn’t for the life of me tell you which one is the Opp Leader right now. I know it’s one of them though
Hasties interview on Insiders was pretty good, he nailed it and showed he absolutely does has leadership potential for centre right politics.
Ah, fantastic, someone in the Liberal party suggests a robust policy to take to an election, the leader shoots them down.
Can’t imagine why they’re so unpopular.
Angus will retire when he finally grifts his full 100 million.
Hastie is the most dangerous conservative going around
I find this comment highly amusing:
>no one’s going to reward us for a final last stand for neo-Liberal politics
Hastie is aware he is in the Liberal party right?
They can’t pivot away from what they fundamentally are. They just.. go extinct.
Split up the party, seriously. They can’t agree on so many things.
Being rebuked by Angus is surely a badge of honour
To be fair, Hastie is just as much of a corrupt snake as Taylor is, but he is more intelligent. He would have to be. Taylor is a moron. Wondering if he is waiting for the next Labor landslide to be the last one standing.
something, something…hastie, repent at leisure?
The libs seem really determined to destroy themselves
If we want less hoarding of property, shouldn’t we tax hoarding of property? IDK I’m not a moneyologist.
Man From The Party Who Ended Car Manufacturing Wonders Why There Is No Car Manufacturing Left should be a Betoota Headline
The cynic in me says this is a strategy to enable the libs to talk out of both sides of their mouth, to appeal to more audiences. “See! The libs are [insert your political bias here]”.
That would probably be giving them too much credit though
