Grab for power... Liberals reduced to only 2 MP's...no need to 'grab' power ..the people have given the power and reduced the Liberals to a phone box and using 'rock/paper/scissors' to decide leadeship

The GT communication director should stick to communications or join the LNP at the next election and try to make it 3 seats in parliament 🤣
