Instead of competing with One Nation, the Liberal party under Angus Taylor is echoing One Nation’s divisive, hateful position on immigration and in Farrer is preferencing One Nation – a move that could put a One Nation MP in the House of Representatives for the first time.

Liberals in Farrer should ignore Taylor’s how-to-vote card and put One Nation last.

Doesn't mean much to me when he's not the decision maker anymore. He gets to bolster his reputation without taking responsibility. That doesn't impress me at all. Gillard does the same. They had their opportunity to make changes and they didn't take it. Most people don't get that opportunity.

What are you talking about with Gillard? Didn't she try to shoot her shot while PM, get dragged through the coals by murdochs fash news, and ousted before enacting most of it?
