About this listen
When Scott Morrison’s government was swept from power in 2022 it was the Coalition’s worst election result in 70 years. The cities deserted them and they lost ground in every state, except Queensland.
The conventional wisdom was it would take Peter Dutton two terms in opposition to turn the Coalition's fortunes around, with a strategy of focusing on Queensland and regional areas this election before recapturing city seats in the next cycle.
But that long-term plan has disappeared, with Dutton sharpening his immediate focus on the inner-city teal seats he thinks the Coalition can win.
Today, senior reporter for The Saturday Paper Rick Morton on whether Peter Dutton can reclaim teal electorates with his brand of hardline conservatism.
