New Poll Shows 43% Of Voters Wish Tony Abbott Would Just Fuck Off Already

There’s no point trying to hide the issue, he wants the top job again and he’s doing everything in his power to undermine Malcolm Turnbull by sniping, snipping, and engaging in general bastardry at any possible chance he can get.

He reckons he would be a much better – and more popular – Prime Minister than Turnbull is. And that’s a fair statement if you choose to completely ignore that one time he already was the PM and people fucking hated approximately 90% of the shit that he did.

New polls are showing that the public isn’t exactly warming to Abbott’s latest bullish behaviour either. In fact, the leading train of thought amongst voters is that they really wish he’d simply fuck right off out of Canberra altogether.

A Guardian Essential poll conducted between June 29th and July 3rd reveals that 43% of all voters believe Abbott should quit politics altogether. Of the responses offered, that was by far and away the leading answer. In fact, only 18% believe he should stay on and be given a Ministry job under Turnbull, and just 14% believe he should remain in his current role on the backbench.

Even Coalition voters surveyed in the poll aren’t taking too kindly to Abbott’s current relentless campaign to re-take power in the Coalition by force. 35% of Liberal party voters polled believed he should march his onion-eating backside out of Canberra tout bloody suite.

The poll shows Labor‘s lead over the Coalition is widening, with the red team now holding a 53-47 lead in the two-party preferred stakes. This is up from 52-48, a mark that had held steady for the four weeks prior.

But yeah, this constant bickering at party leadership thing that Tone’s running with right now? It’s doing great. Absolutely super. Really resonating with the voter-base.
