Bolt will get off lightly, with a CBO, suspended on the condition that he seeks counselling.

But hey, we all live in hopes. It is the only reason I watch Insiders any more.

"Wentworth Man" will be middle class, metrosexual, environmentally aware and socially liberal. He will aim to wedge a Tony Abbott-led Liberal party from its left flank. And as 50% of the commentariat live in this electorate, he will get a lot of coverage. I'm not sure where the campaign against Internet censorship is at present, but if Turnbull hasn't been approached to champion the cause, he should be, Its the sort of cause that is a natural for him now that he can give his own party the finger.

The logistics may be a bit difficult, but surely only the tyranny of distance has prevented a few fisticuffs between these two thus far. It will be particularly interesting to see how Turnbull plays his hand in this respect; will he quit or stay on, and will he go in swinging at his own team as well as Labor in Wentworth?
