An indigenous female and a gay man compete to lead the Liberal Party. Amazingly, a white heterosexual barely literate man will win (even if they don’t nominate).
Just when we thought the fun and games were over, Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price - an #auspol newby with the nous of a gnat - leaps into the bosom of the Liberal Party, sparking speculation that she's making a queue-jumping tilt at a leadership position. 🍿 #auspol
That is the conservative modus operandi - put a woman in charge when it's a poisoned chalice, a brown woman so much the better. Eg Liz Truss & Suella Braverman.
It's also no mistake that the typical "first woman elected to" is generally conservative. It's as if they are saying, "Yes, our policies treat people like shit, but look at this empathetic woman who will be implementing them."
That’s what the Libs did in 22, over here in WA, for the state election. They put a complete numpty in as the leader because they knew they were going to lose that election. They just didn’t realise they’d be left with 2 people in the Lower House.
She's a Senator, right? So she'd have to switch to a HoR seat. Would anyone give up their seat for her? And could she win a by-election? I can't see it
And John Gorton was the only Senator to ever become PM, but that was under unusual circumstances. He took over the job after Harold Holt disappeared. Shortly after he resigned from the Senate and ran in the by-election for Holts seat, which he won then sat in the HoR.

Gina Rinehart & the Advance lobby group were big fans of Dutton and Price, and now that Dutton's gone, Price is all they have left.
The Libs will never win another election.
Accelerate their destruction
