Leadership is back in danger, page-230

Justis, Tony Abbott is pugilistic by nature.

IMO he will not go without a very bloody fight [that started late in 2014] and will pull whatever other tricks occur to him prior to being shown the door.

It wouldn't surprise me if Abbott even called a snap election just to prevent Malcolm Turnbull getting the chance to challenge in the knowledge that in a wipeout scenario only those in very deep blue ribbon seats would get returned and that they would almost certainly not back Turnbull.

IMO, the longer Turnbull waits the greater the risks are for him and the greater the damage to the Liberal Party from the unseemly mess being played out oh so publicly.
