With a primary vote sitting on 29.7% – its lowest result since 1952 – it’s clear the party’s problems run deep

And with a primary vote sitting on 29.7% – its lowest result since 1952 – it’s clear the party’s problems run far deeper than just who their parliamentary leader is.

“We went into the election with absolutely no direction. Just a string of random policies and a vague plan to fix the healthcare system that no one could trust because unlike Labor, it’s not a strength of ours, there is no brand equity there.”

I can help with a definition of Victorian Liberals but it won’t be pretty.

The problem is most Australians got a taste of who they are over the last 2 liberal terms and are still gagging on the bitter reflux. Also known as Reflux Morrisonitis.

let them be

Why would you give this organization of human dregs any pointers?

I can define who they are for them. They’re nobodies.

How about not communists and probably throw in not marxist, then they should work on being conservative not regressive.

The libs may not have decided who they are but Victorians have.

Pretty sure they've been hard at work showing us exactly who they've defined that they are.

It’s not just Victoria. The Liberal Party for which I voted for most of my life and was a member and poll worker for is no more. Totally lost their way. Need to rid themselves of the religious nutters and other cookers.

Maybe don't re-elect a previous failure as leader.

They did define who they are, which is why they were so roundly rejected on Saturday.

They're Christian Nationalists so they should elect one of those as leader.

Just like your democracy sausage, the Liberals are almost cookedNow, Matthew Guy, having wrested control back from a hapless Michael O’Brien, appears on the cusp of a second electoral loss. Should this prove the case, he will be remembered only for having led his little band of the disheartened up dry gullies. ... No. They’re burnt. Like so grossly burnt.
