Summary
The Liberal Party is facing a crisis as polling shows historic lows, with internal calls for a full rebrand to reconnect with modern voters. Frontbencher Melissa McIntosh argues the party feels stuck in the past and needs to appeal to women and younger Australians, even bringing in experts to overhaul its image. Meanwhile, opposition leader Angus Taylor admits rebuilding trust after the pandemic will take time, comparing it to turning a massive ship. Not everyone agrees — Andrew Hastie backs Taylor’s leadership, saying good policies just need time to resonate. Labor is seizing the moment, highlighting Liberal fractures. With Coalition support at just 17%, trailing Labor and even One Nation, the pressure mounts to find a way back to relevance — as even retiring Senator Jonno Duniam admits the party feels “lost in the wash.” Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
