• Higgins by-election (and Bradfield by-election)

  
  Larvatus Prodeo — Authority: 523
  Tomorrow sees voters in Peter Costello’s old seat of Higgins (and Brendan Nelson’s seat of Bradfield) go to the polls. Labor is not running in either by-election. That seemed like an arguably justifiable decision at the time nominations closed, but it’s looking, in the eyes of some observers, like less of a ...

• Hockey the new Costello, Howard has lunch, Andrews deals himself back in

  
  Larvatus Prodeo — Authority: 523
  Developments yesterday and today in the Liberal leadership spill should only reinforce the belief that Malcolm Turnbull’s survival as leader would be the Liberal party’s only sane option. Joe Hockey went to lunch with John Howard, didn’t reply to any of the tweets he received, and is being spoken of by some ...

• Propositions on the Liberal right week of FAIL

  
  Larvatus Prodeo — Authority: 523
  Let’s sum up a few things about the CPRS/leadership shenanigans : (a) It’s been intriguing to see the focus of political discussion narrow to the Parliamentary dramatics. Journalists – and one suspects, many Liberal MPs – appear to have completely lost sight of the effect that Turnbull’s stand might be ...

• Keating on Costello (… and everything else)

  
  Larvatus Prodeo — Authority: 523

PJK has been in the news decrying the artistic establishment for neglecting Geoffrey Tozer , pondering cities and dubbing Canberra “a great mistake” , musing on the evils of the media and News ...

  Avatar Briefs — Authority: 129
  Our longest serving, or longest living - I cant remember which - former federal treasurer Peter Costello announced way back in 2007 - after the Liberal election loss - that he would quit politics.

• Hamilton and Higgins

  
  skepticlawyer — Authority: 467
  Now, I don’t usually get involved in the nitty-gritty of politics. I don’t know how far my my general sympathies are obvious to readers because I have unorthodox views which mean I don’t fit well into any party camp. Let’s just say it’s very unlikely you’ll ever see me campaigning for the Liberal Party. ...

• Clive Hamilton and Higgins

  
  Larvatus Prodeo — Authority: 523
  The Greens are running Clive Hamilton in Higgins. As Andrew Norton observes, Hamilton criticising seems to be a politically ecumenical practice in the blogosphere. Guy Rundle puts a contrary view. I’m by no means enamoured of some of the ideas Hamilton has put forward over the years, but I don’t know that ...
