    Australia: Bye Bye Turnbull, Hello Morisson

    Aussie PMs have less job security than Indian PMs... why is that?

    Looks like a swing to the right. Australian politics is seriously dysfunctional, how many Prime Ministers in the last decade or two?

    Just checked, this is the fifth since 2010.

    Kids in Australia have grown up never seeing a full-term PM. It's disgraceful.

    Kids in Australia probably do a trip to Canberra as a school trip to see Parliament in action. It's probably why so many Australians are utterly cynical about politics as adults.

    Nothing but a shuffling of the deckchairs on the Titanic.

    General election next year will see them out, the opposition who should win have already reformed their party laws to prevent leadership changes like this.
