Qld politics - Seeney plotting to oust Flegg ...

Excerpt from the Courier Mail:

Seeney plotting to oust Flegg

10 July 2007

The troubled state Coalition faces a bitter showdown as Nationals leader Jeff Seeney leads a charge to ditch Liberal leader Bruce Flegg.Mr Seeney has been warned by his own executive that the Coalition faces being dissolved if Dr Flegg remains leader.

The ultimatum has come from the Nationals executive, sparking Mr Seeney to secretly ring Liberal MPs to warn them of Dr Flegg's "intolerable" position and his negative impact on the upcoming federal election.

Mr Seeney yesterday refused to confirm or deny the revelations but partly blamed Dr Flegg for recent speculation about Mr Seeney's future as Coalition leader.

While conceding the position of the leader of the Liberals was a matter for the Liberal Party, Mr Seeney said there were "a number of people in the National Party concerned about Dr Flegg's" performance.

See - Coalition plots - Beattie laughs.

Premier Beattie must be laughing into his latte this morning ...

It is on the right track, better still don't have a coalition. Go it alone and form the party after the election. The National Party might just win the seats in their own right.
The Liberal's are dead ducks and Dr. Flegg is the worst leader they have had!!!

Bring back Springbord - at least he was an honest leader - but I agree that Flegg should stand aside - he should be left to deal with health issues only
