yes they were ------------- Howard said that ---------------- he also said that they were wrong. he said that times had changed and they didn't realise it

the Liberals still don't know why they lost the election or their voter base

their autopsy tells them how they lost - which part of their base they lost ------------- but, it doesn't tell them 'why' that base has deserted

they come up with simplistic ideas like -------------- 'young people believe in climate change' - so they don't vote for us

so, their fix is --------- 'we better believe in climate change too then' ------ and we'll get some votes back

doh --------------- doesn't work

they need an entirely new set of PRINCIPLES - and they need to run honest policies that sit nicely fitted under those principles.

If they can't - then they aren't a viable party at all

a new party will form - because to reform a party like the Liberal party takes decades - as it did for Labor.

In decades time - the world is going to be so different that by the time the Liberals get up to speed for what they need now -------- they will still be decades out of date

for conservatism - it's over

They could try with the principles of Menzies, which is a far cry from the current Liberal view of running Australia.
These principles are so close to Labor it is not funny.
