“You are so focused on yourselves that you have forgotten what the country has elected you to do, and that is to govern for them, not for you.

Called it.
Dutton's going to get destroyed in Dickson if he holds on 'til the election. So I wonder if he'll decide to step down at that time, to avoid further humiliation.

Honestly Australian politics is so depressing right now. Morrison is marginally better than Dutton, but only by a couple of millimeters . He is still a horrible person. I hope at least, no Dutton means we are going to avoid a racist election campaign from the LNP. Can't wait until a general election and they get booted into the wilderness for at least 10 years or more.
