Bin Chicken 🗑𓅠After Candid Self-Reflection, Liberal Strategists Say Best Person to Replace Rejected Kooyong MP Josh Frydenberg Is … Josh Frydenberg <a href="https://theshovel.com.au/2024/06/03/liberal-strategists-say-best-person-to-replace-rejected-kooyong-mp-josh-frydenberg/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://theshovel.com.au/2024/06/03/liberal-strategists-say-best-person-to-replace-rejected-kooyong-mp-josh-frydenberg/</a>Another kerb-kicker from <a href="https://mastodon.au/@theshovel" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@theshovel</a>.In all seriousness, this it a trial-balloon being sent-up to test people's opinions. This kerfuffle shows how divided the Liberal Party are. Factional infighting presents party members with two choices: - Sexist, racist, old-boys-club, RWNJ wing. - Old-school Conservative, generational privilege wing.Those calling for Josh Frydenberg to replace Amelia Hamer as the Liberal candidate for Kooyong think it's okay to break their own party's preselection process, and are harkening-back to the "Good ol' days" of Scott Morrison. They've forgotten that Josh Frydenberg was one of the worst Federal Treasurers in living memory under the leadership of ScottyFromMarketing.Those calling for Amelia Hamer haven't heard her say a word about policy, but they like her posh Oxford-educated credentials and good family-name. She gets to ride on the coat-tails of her grandfather, Rupert Hamer, the Premier of Victoria from 1972 to 1981.Neither group is in touch with reality. Dr Monique Ryan won the seat of Kooyong in 2022 with a 2.9 per cent margin. The seat of Kooyong has been considered a safe Liberal seat for generations. It's why it's given to people in important roles such as Treasurer. Monique Ryan beat Josh Frydenberg because he's a fucking idiot and nobody liked his bootlicking of ScottyFromMarketing.<a href="https://rants.au/tags/AusPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AusPol</a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/Teals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Teals</a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/LNP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LNP</a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/LiberalParty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LiberalParty</a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/Kooyong" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kooyong</a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/MoniqueRyan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MoniqueRyan</a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/KooyongVotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#KooyongVotes</a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/AmeliaHamer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AmeliaHamer</a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/JoshFrydenberg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JoshFrydenberg</a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/ScottMorrison" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScottMorrison</a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/ScottyFromMarketing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScottyFromMarketing</a>
