Maybe, but while Abbott and his mob are still there, the likelihood diminishes. The 'right' within the Libs are very unhappy their boy has been defrocked.

But as Peter Costello wrote, the Turnbull of 2007 is not the Turnbull of 2015. He has learned a lot more about consensus and leading a conservative party. Time will tell, particularly after winning the next election, but for now, the signs are good.

I'll be around in ten years and only just applying for the pension. Will you?

Absolute nonsense. This man is a traitor. Mr Abbott is the rightful Roads and Infrastructure leader of the nation.

You’ve said so yourself, many times. Turnbull is nothing more than a trecherous leftard.

And thank heavens for that.

Oh, I know. Hopefully you’ll be in public housing by then and your husband will be on the carer’s pension.

Don’t let that one go, dear. He’s a keeper.
