Policy? Which policy did he stuff up on?
Because the shit that was clogging the joint up was the same measures that were there before he got in the job.
The DD trigger that he used was an attempt to unblock the drain. He was hampered by senators outwardly saying "until you fix the issue I want then I'm voting everything down". Which is of course NOT the way the system should work (but hilariously of course that person who was causing the calamity got reelected so go figure).
So is it not 'leadership' that he attempted to change a fractured system?
Public perception, well geez, the hippies all loved him because he wasn't Abbott but they were never going to vote for him.
The media running the narrative always have their own favourites. Jones and Oakes having a whinge about Turnbull was all time considering they carried the water for Abbott and Rudd so hard. Of course they were going to be sad.
As with Dunster I too would be fascinated by the % of primary vote he (and shorten) collected because I'd be surprised if it's not bang on the average over the last 50 years.
Again, the campaign is what it is. The media bitched because he didn't do many interviews but that's self interest. He went for a conservative approach, not fire and brimstone or a party hat and clown shoes. Lot of people out there acting that he's done such a shut job but not really pinpointing any real faults.
Just a lot of personal issues which is more on them than it is the PM.
Anyway though. Onto the next bloke then.
