The mainstream media keep banging on about how the Coalition lost because they aren’t left enough. That is absolute nonsense. The Liberals facilitated the fracturing of the conservative vote by being Labor-lite. Every conservative knows this is true. Conservatives don’t want the Liberal Party to go left – they want the Liberal Party to be conservative.
Even NSW Opposition Leader Mark Speakman wants to drag the Liberals further to the left and to introduce gender quotas. We already have socialist parties. Conservatives want a conservative party, and they don’t care what woke wets think is best. But the only way Angus Taylor and Dan Tehan can save the Liberals is if they stand up to the Woke rot and represent conservatives with no excuses.
Writing in the Morning Double Shot newsletter, Terry Barnes had this to say:
As the Saturday night dust continues to settle, the Liberal party has sank into a morass of recriminations, back-stabbing and finger-pointing. And yet their first order of business is choosing a new leader from current deputy Sussan Ley, shadow treasurer Angus Taylor, and immigration spokesman Dan Tehan. Michael de Percy is advocating for a Taylor-Tehan unity ticket. Your scribe’s response is that Taylor must not be rewarded for the damage he has done the centre-right cause, allowing the Coalition’s key selling point of superior economic manager to be trashed to the point of being irrecoverable. Sussan Ley, who added a letter to her name for numerological harmony, for goodness’ sake, has history that Labor would exploit ruthlessly and, really, what has she done? In my view, Tehan is the short- to medium-term answer: someone who can keep the remnants of the team united, is policy-savvy yet knows how the political sausage machine works. Being a rural MP doesn’t matter, as he has an urban background. Reverse the de Percy ticket order and it might just work, or keep Ley in her current position with Tehan as leader. But put the political stake through Angus’s leadership ambitions.
My election coverage in The Spectator Australia, Angus and Dan can save the Liberals.
"Conservatives don’t want the Liberal Party to go left – they want the Liberal Party to be conservative."
