How Abbott will check mate his critics

Hopefully this coming weekend, Abbott should euthanize Hockey’s Treasury ambitions and place a call to the Member for Wentworth.

And while he’s at it, Abbott should leave Turnbull running the Communication portfolio as well. Why replace him as Minister for Communications? Who possibly could do a better fist of it?

Abbott may not consider Turnbull leadership material. He may not even like him. But he surely understands that Turnbull is a very capable man whose talents the party needs. Managing and marketing two large and complex portfolios is well within his capacity.

As for Joe, as a person on television and radio he comes across as nice.  As Treasurer however he has failed.

Call the removalists. Time to hit the road Jack. Seriously.
