Abbott about to sack Bronny?

I was just walking back from the shop and saw.. a newspaper whos name I've forgotten and it was bsaically saying that seniors of the lnp are pushing to have her fired, and that they "expect the situation to resolve itself in the following few days"

I'm pretty sure it was a Murdoch rag, so "senior lnp sources" will likely be Murdoch himself delivering an ultimatum

Soon as I saw that the Herald Sun said she had to go this morning, that was that.That was why it was today - Murdoch had spoken publicly.

If my polls are correct. Turnbull appears to be an option. Clearly a clue that she was axed days prior.

Andrew bolt.

Sure he's not a member of the lower house, but Abbott will find a way.

Edit: If new speakers being chosen I would imagine they would come from the front bench. Does than mean were in for another exciting cabinet re-shuffle?

I kind of wanted to see her survive in the house. This way the coalition can depose of her as speaker without having to publicly defend or condemn her I guess.

I recall a piece he wrote after Nelson Mandela died called "The Dark Side of Nelson Mandela", and I wonder if that was just a poor choice of words or he was winking at his audience. Maybe it's indicative of his style. He's quite unpleasant.

Yes, that's a classic Bolt dogwhistle. How dare a world leader be celebrated when he was a bad black man. It was ugly and more than usually transparent of him.

Also, from twitter

Senior MP, not a Minister, disliked by Abbott. Sounds about right.
