Morrison comes across as being a much less flexible thinker than that.

The only real hope for the LNP is if they get a dose of DLP economics from some LNP retirement homes (or old Point of View video tapes or more likely from Greg Sheridan) as while there is a lot of dud stuff in that, it will certainly be a hell of lot better than what they are trying to dish out at the moment.

In fact DLP economics will probably put them to the left of the neo-lib mini me’s like Husic, Bowen and Wong.
