Somehow they have to refresh & rebuild into a group which looks like representing the board interests of the country and being a viable government.
The problem is how to do that with the remaining uninspiring bunch theyre left with.
The one possible outlier I see to this is Chris Luxton who has excellent media presentation skills but would voters see a first term MP as a viable PM in 2023?
