I doubt Kevin Andrews will not get a gig should Malcolm get re-elected.
Dumped Abbott government minister Kevin Andrews said today's opinion poll suggests the honeymoon is finished for Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull.
The latest Newspoll published by The Australian has Labor leading the Coalition after preferences 51 per cent to 49 per cent.
It is the first time the Turnbull Government has trailed the Opposition since Mr Turnbull came to power last year.
"Polls go up and down, when any new leader comes in there's a honeymoon period," Kevin Andrews told the ABC.
"Obviously Mr Turnbull has had a honeymoon period but now as we get closer to an election Australians want to concentrate on the choice between Mr Turnbull and Mr Shorten."
While a number of senior ministers brushed off the poll and Mr Turnbull refused to comment on it, Mr Andrews's expansive remarks aligned more closely with Labor critics.
They echo similar sentiment from Opposition Senator Sam Dastyari who also said the "honeymoon" was ending.
