So there endeth yet another knifing of an Oz PM. 

Not sure how long this mob will last though ..

Have put out a twitter feeler.  Seems so far most agree with my thinking that it will not go that well from here, expect an election sooner than later ...

Personally I would find an election this year really inconvenient so I'm hoping for next year

The Turnbull government was planning to drip-feed announcements from a $7.6bn roads and rail package in the run-up to the election, with major projects planned for key marginal seats.

The leaked list of projects, reported by the Herald Sun, shows roughly $1.6bn was planned for Queensland electorates – held by Coalition MPs who voted against Turnbull in last month's leadership spill, including Peter Dutton, George Christensen and Michelle Landry – in a bid to save their seats.



The leaked list shows most of the infrastructure projects will occur in Queensland, where the Coalition is struggling to fend off One Nation. However, New South Wales will receive the lion's share of planned infrastructure spending, given the value of the $3.5bn Western Sydney Rail project, which stretches across seven Labor-held seats. The list of projects includes:

Queensland:
$880m for the Rockhampton Ring Road, in the seat of Capricornia, held by the LNP's Michelle Landry on a margin of 0.6%

$280m for the Mackay Ring Road Stage 2, in the seat of Dawson, held by the LNP's George Christensen on a margin of 3.4%

$160m for the Linkfield Road Overpass at Carseldine, which stretches across the Petrie and Dickson electorates, held by the LNP's Luke Howarth (1.7%) and the LNP's Peter Dutton (2%)

$180m for the Cairns Southern Access Stages, in the seat of Leichhardt, held by the LNP's Warren Entsch on a margin of 4%

$112m for the Gold Coast Light Rail Broadbeach to Burleigh Heads, in the seat of McPherson, held by the LNP's Karen Andrews on a margin of 11.6%.
