Coalition to move on Abbott?

Well not if Murdoch has any say in it. He's somehow knocked the idea on the head, but the South Australian Lieberals are not happy and they want to do a Labor style PM replacement with an alleged woman, that being Julie Bishop who is currently deputy Lieberal leader. A yawning and hapless Lieberal neanderthal, she wouldn't have a hop in hell of running the country. And imagine Abbott being turfed out, by a woman. A woman darlings! Oh the shame! Oh the humanity! There'd be a few punches in the wall over that one I bet.

Anyway, although the gov frontbench are all a bunch of talentless morons, we may see the end of the most talentless moron of all; Abbott. Don't hold your breath though, The Lieberals owe Rupert a lot after the last election and Rupert has to give his stamp of approval first. After all, Tony's his mate eh.  

In the whispering gallery that buzzes through Australian politics these days, word has reached me from a former colleague at The Advertiser that the South Australian Liberal establishment wants to organise a party spill in Canberra before Parliament begins its 2014 sittings. 

The word is that Liberal powerbrokers in the states where the population is suffering across the huge range of bushfire areas, want Julie Bishop to replace Tony Abbott as prime minister. 

Further news is that Rupert Murdoch has knocked the idea on the head. He wants Abbott to stay! He can manipulate Abbott. Murdoch can’t stand women anymore. Three times bitten, never again! He has allowed too many women to ruin his life. 

This, however, has not daunted former Liberal luminaries like Malcolm Fraser, Alexander Downer and Nick Minchin — all of whom are aghast at the performance of the current Federal Government over the past few months. Prime Minister Abbott has almost disappeared from the political radar and seems unable to cope with the mess he has created and remains terrified of real reporters asking real questions. more
