I don’t know, but after decades observing politics you get a feel for the people involved.

The talkers, the doers, the dolts and the show ponies. They all reveal themselves eventually

I put Taylor in the later category because I’m hard pressed to think of anything that he’s contributed to debate or public policy, like say, a Keating, a Hawke, a Howard or an Abbott.

You knew exactly where each of them stood on most issues years before their elevation to the top job.

Angus Taylor like Sussan Ley seem more beige, vanilla and blancmange. More a political weathervane.

All the rest on both sides have been total flame-out mediocrities and i suspect we’ll be having this conversation again in the next 12 to 18 months.
