By-Election in Wentworth

With Malcolm Turnbull’s exit from the political realm, the blue-ribbon seat  of Wentworth has become subject to a by-election. Yesterday, Christine Foster announced that she has pulled out of the by-election after less than a week from stating she was running for the Liberals. This throws a lot of predictions made about the area to the wind. We discussed this situation with Terry Barnes, a former adviser to the Howard government and friend of the daily.
