    Jambo, you keep saying Turnbull is in an election losing poll position but surly you know that is not the case.

    Have a look back in the history of polls and you will find that elections are often won buy parties that go into an election on 48%, as I have said to you before it's not difficalt to make up 2 points and from there it's anyone's game.

    48% is not low enough to worry PM's enough to consider a change of leadership. We saw that with Abbott, liberal MP's resisted a leadership change for a long time while LNP polled much worse.

    Entirely possible LNP could slip further in the polls but again liberal MP's would be well aware of the implications of a leadership spill and will resist it as far as they can.
