Five times this week where Malcolm Turnbull reached extra levels of petty that I aspire to
Surprising everyone with a leadership spill, knowing that his opposition hadn’t fully prepared and didn’t yet have the numbers
Refusing to call another party meeting so nobody could challenge his leadership
Insisting his opposers bring him a petition of 43 signatures before he calls another meeting
When he was brought the petition, making the whip call each number personally to confirm the signatures weren’t faked
Now that he’s lost his leadership, announcing he will resign from parliament, losing the Liberal party’s majority. Therefore (probably) triggering a new election, and (hopefully) kicking the Liberals out of leadership
