The Liberals’ failed bid for suburban voters

Labor won the Dunkley byelection last weekend, but the Liberal Party spent most of the week claiming the result was a win for them as well.

But even while the Liberal Party was claiming a groundswell in support, Opposition Leader Peter Dutton disappeared from public view. When Dutton emerged, he announced a reshuffle of his front bench.

Today, columnist for The Saturday Paper Paul Bongiorno, on the divisions appearing inside the Liberal Party.
