Being dogged, determined & confident doesn’t make a person capable, nor correct. Tim Wilson all of these, he’s also a *know it all* prat.
Pride goes before a fall & I’m pretty sure he’ll fall again #AusPol.

@feather1952 very nasty but also very skilled at the politics. Will use all moves in the tussle with Chalmers, and might take quite a few points. Memo Jim: you need to do much more than mumble “the punters are doing it tough” if you want the top job. #auspol

He’s an awful man & yeah too damn skilled at politics, he could be quite bothersome for Chalmers.

He is clever, and can even come across as charming. I saw him speak at the Wheeler Centre once. Quite an impressive performance. But I’ve also spoken to him one to one. Much less charming.
