She's not an actress.

That's not quite right, cat... I saw her on abc24 visibly upset when a local was showing her through their home. Besides that, I distinctly remember you complaining when she was upset several months ago,... Now you want her to be upset?

what about the 7 LNP members retiring this year is the LNP in crisis also.  

 i wonder how long ghosts like  ruddock will haunt the corridors for . i thought ruddock was actually dead until he spoke up during the refugee debate

I wonder why the faceless men in the liberal party have left that goon Abbott at the helm, when they have another qualified leader in turnbull who would help them to romp in. Perhaps Abbott's claims that he'll be taking his current cabinet to the election didn't include himself 😄 I would love to see him rolled right off our tv screens :^O

When it happens, I hope the Lib people who specialise in leaking things to the media also leak this. It'd be so much more fun to see it live lol

Former foreign minister Alexander Downer says he has "no plans at all" to enter South Australian Parliament following the sudden resignation of Opposition Leader Isobel Redmond.

Ms Redmond announced she had stepped down earlier today following months of speculation Mr Downer was interested in the job.

The Liberals will hold a ballot on Monday morning to elect a new leader, with deputy Steven Marshall becoming acting leader until then.

Mr Downer has previously said he has no intention to make a bid for the position but has repeatedly refused to rule it out entirely.

ANOTHER one bites the dust as the state's first female Liberal leader calls it quits, writes MICHAEL McGUIRE

PERHAPS, in the end, the unlikeliest of Liberal leaders came to the likeliest of all Liberal ends. She was cut down by her own party. Isobel Redmond resigned yesterday - citing "ongoing leadership speculation and disunity" as her primary reason for stepping down from the job she has held since July 2009.
