Abbott didn't think twice about getting rid of Ruddock either. It looked as though he was booted out because of his age and slowness and you could tell he was very upset at the time. Why should Bishop be spared when she has even less to offer to politics than Ruddock? She might be Abbott's good mate - but that's not a logical excuse.
What are you talking about?
When was Ruddock booted, he's still in Parliament and he's never been Speaker.

I never said he was a speaker. I was referring to this...
Sacked chief government whip Philip Ruddock says it’s unhelpful to discuss what led to his demise. But his prime minister linked it directly to his near-death experience at the hands of his party room. A closer look shows the paranoia driving everything Tony Abbott is doing in his dangerously weak state.
Some months ago there was an ugly confrontation between Ruddock, parliament’s longest-serving member, and the PM. It ended in acrimony, with a prime ministerial “get fucked” adding colour. The topic was the long-time politician’s post-parliament job prospects. Abbott shocked his interlocutor by giving him rude short shrift.
Wind forward to the spill motion. The result was more than a first warning: it was a political death sentence. Again there was another unpleasant exchange. A furious Abbott clearly believed his whip had run dead on him. But the veteran MP, following long practice in the parliament, didn’t believe it was his job to whip up the numbers for the leader in the party room. He told Sky News, “To be a barracker rather than refusing to comment was in my view not the appropriate way forward.” That just added fuel to the fire. His sacking was followed by the rewarding of two of the more outspoken Abbott barrackers.

Ok, now Bishop has resigned I can't wait for the lefty scum to call for the heads of Bowen, Burke et al
We all know that won't happen because lefty scum are hypocritical fluffy bunnies without a moral or ethical bone their bodies.
Not that it matters, because the real scandal will come when the RC into the corrupt unions and Shorten hands down its findings so close to the election the ALP won't have time to switch to whatever piece of shit is next in line for the ALP poisoned chalice.

You don't get the right to call them hypocrites (without becoming one yourself), as you were fine with Bronnie staying on

Wrong, you flaccid little fuckwit.
You lefty scum whined about her use of entitlements. Burke and Bowen are guilty of exactly the same misuse, therefore unless you lefty scum call for their heads, fucking hypocrites you certainly are. Completely and utterly.
But being a hypocrite and short of morals, ethics and brain cells as you are, I would expect you to be oblivious to your hypocrisy, fluffy bunny.

He is "only" in Opposition and Labor so he can do what he wants. It is Tony Abbott that "they" are after.
In fact, I can't believe the leftards argument about Abbott and Daughter spending a day skiing and taking along Peta, his office person who might love to ski while her husband hates the snow? Who knows, or cares.
Burke took an overseas trip (first class travel) with his office person, Skye, and nobody blinked ... he and she are now "formally spouses" whatever that means.

In ALP circles it means "I sexually harassed the help and my wife found out, so now the taxpayer has to support two sets of kids because I can't keep my dick in my pants"
It's a common theme, which is why none of the skanky moles are ever married and even if they are, they keep their maiden name because the odds are that the ALP member will fuck the next "helper"

If Abbott thinks it is ok for tax payers to fund party functions and attendance at them he has another thing coming though Nef...parties are not governments and they can fund themselves AFAIC
