Title: Mal Brough For PM!! Post by Lord Sir BigVic VSD and Bar on Jan 31st, 2015 at 3:07pm
Former Howard government cabinet minister Mal Brough is being urged by his colleagues to challenge Tony Abbott for the prime ministership if Saturday's election result in his home state of Queensland is as bad as many MPs fear.
Fairfax Media has confirmed with multiple sources that Mr Brough has been approached to act as a leadership circuit-breaker. He is said to be a taking a wait and see approach. Mr Brough did not deny approaches had been made to him when contacted by Fairfax Media. http://www.smh.com.au/federal-politics/political-news/mal-brough-urged-to-challenge-tony-abbott-for-leadership-20150131-132rfe.html And his parliamentary secretary can be James Ashby. Put a dress on him and he looks like Peta |

Mal Brough is just the bloke to challenge too. He has no standards.

I'm flabbergasted. I dead set thought that was a stitch up. The government are imploding by the day now. Brough would be just a spoiler he's name is mud. How split must this party be? |

I thought it was too, then I looked at News lmd breaking stories and it's true alright. The government have entered the death throes there is no going back and nowhere to hide for Abbott. Abbott is gone, not months but just weeks or even days. |

You may be surprised to know that there are people here that want what's best for Australia, not just what's best for the ALP or Coalition. Personally, I would like Turnbull to replace Tony and thus start the Libs move back a bit closer to the centre. He would also be the Libs best chance of winning the next election since Tony has damaged their brand so badly. A win by Turnbull would also allow for a more painless way for Shorten to be replaced. There is no fear from this halfwit Pollie, just a very optimistic view of the future. |

We are petrified, Armpit, at the thought of the Libs replacing a first term PM. Oh yeah, petrified. And you just conceded a change is on!

It would be crazy for the Libs to replace Abbott.
Too many back benchers worried about their job and knowing who deserves the blame, same as what happened to Rudd. |

This is how this issue is 'debated/discussed' elsewhere:
