"rapidly imploding"

Hmmm.

It reminds me of the great Rex Mossop; "he dropped the ball with a downward motion". Presumably Rex & Co also like/d LPG gas, ATM machines... & redundant tautology. 😜

Slow implosion of Liberal Party accelerates under Dutton

The Liberal Party, under Dutton, is completely out of step with modern Australia and it is no surprise that it is rapidly imploding.

Independent Australia

Also, "completely out of step" troubles me. If walking can be represented as a sine wave, with step amplitude on y-axis & step frequency on x-axis [as Period, the reciprocal of frequency], with trough-to-trough or peak-to-peak being 360 degrees or one cycle, does the literal claim imply a 360 degree phase shift? If so, they're back in phase, ie, step [albeit now one full step behind, but still in phase]; correct re physics, wildly wrong re politics.
