Turnbull urges Liberal MPs to destroy the Australian Government, by Andrew Bolt.

Former prime minister Malcolm Turnbull has been texting and calling Liberal MPs to urge them to refer Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton to the High Court… Turnbull has told his former colleagues, they should cross the floor of the House and vote with Labor to force a referral of the Dutton case. …

If Dutton falls, Morrison’s Government will lose its majority. The controversy Turnbull is causing should also cost the Liberals Turnbull’s seat of Wentworth. Goodbye, government.

What a selfish, vindictive man. It is so in character for him to want to burn down the house in spite. …

Turnbull’s son is helping raise cash for the Labor candidate in Wentworth, his daughter is tweeting against the Liberals, Turnbull is refusing to campaign for his successor in Wentworth, and leaks of Cabinet discussion from very close to Turnbull have destabilised Morrison for the past two weeks. …

What were [the Liberals] thinking when they made a Labor-lite man the leader of the Liberals, and let him drag them to the Left with his global warming obsession?

Turnbull fatally crippled the Liberals in his three years on top,losing 16 seats in the election, losing all five byelections in July, losing every Newspoll in his last 23 months and losing the Liberals’ political compass.

Pro-Turnbull journalists may crow that Turnbull is doing no more than did Tony Abbott, whom they accused of “sniping” after his own sacking. They will lie. Tony Abbott only spoke out about policy, and only after it was clear that Turnbull’s policies were wrong, unpopular and unlikely to lead to victory — all of which proved true.
