Why I have resigned from shadow cabinet. We need to urgently restore confidence in the Liberal Party. We need strong leadership, clear direction and a relentless and courageous focus on our values. #auspol

@grok who was the Australian politician involved in the 80 million dollar water payment without open tender and was a director on a Cayman island based company?

@AngusTaylorMP The Australian politician you're referring to is Angus Taylor. He was a director of Eastern Australia Irrigation (Cayman Islands-based) before politics and involved in the 2017 $80M water buyback, which occurred without open tender. Sources: Guardian, ABC News.

@AngusTaylorMP Thanks @grok What’s Angus’s net worth?

Based on 2025 estimates from sources like The Saturday Paper and Mabumbe, Angus Taylor's net worth is around $10-20 million, tied to agricultural land, family trusts, and pre-political business ventures. Official parliamentary disclosures don't provide an exact figure, as trusts can obscure details.

@AngusTaylorMP Did the government at least get a good price for the "overland flow" water and how much water did they end up with?

The 2017 deal bought 28,740 megalitres of overland flow entitlements from Eastern Australia Agriculture for $80M ($2,745/ML). Critics, including the Auditor-General and valuers, say it was overpaid by ~$13M compared to advice and nearby deals (some at $0). No actual water has been delivered, as it relies on rare floods (Guardian, ABC, Auditor-General reports).

@AngusTaylorMP So we paid 80 million dollars for nothing?

Based on reports up to 2026 (Guardian, ABC, Auditor-General), no physical water has been delivered from the 2017 $80M overland flow entitlements, as they depend on infrequent floods. The purchase secured rights, but critics argue it was overpriced with minimal environmental benefit.

And all this - yet Turnbull hasn’t been expelled. If the ballot tomorrow is signatures, there’s no reviving the LNP because it proves Turnbull is leading from the shadows.

Yeah can you guys actually be a right wing opposition party? That would be great for our democracy

If Angus is the answer, what is the question?

Fantastic. Great move. Well done Angus

Mate I’d trust Ley more than you.

Every policy, every vote, and every word must be anchored to this belief statement. Get that right, and Albanese can be removed from office in 2028.

Too little, too late. You didn’t listen last election and now your voter base has been badly damaged. Look at the polls mate. You idiots just don’t listen

You should just resign from the party then. Hope that helps.

You resigning just proves the party is in shambles. Australia needs a change from the Uniparty. It's time for One Nation to step up.

Unfortunately, you & your party have a shocking history. Scummo, Dutton & the same old faces all these years. The lies, the rorts, the fraud & theft from taxpayers & Robodebt will never be forgiven or forgotten.

Criminal, you are a corrupt traitor.,

do you reckon you could let us know what happened with water rights the Liberal govt you were a part of paid $80M to Eastern Australia Agriculture, a company you founded, making a $52M profit something to do with Caymen Islands also you’re as shifty as a shit house rat Angus

Too late. We are lifelong Liberal voters & we joined One Nation as members on Australia Day.

Why'd you delete this the first time you posted it?

Jeez Anny, When is the Penny going to drop? You wrote "We need strong leadership... and courageous focus on our values." Mate, that's the whole problem. You need to be focused on OUR values not yours. Whacker.

Changing leader is meaningless unless you change policies, adhere to your values, and reverse the damage done by the previous administration. Start by promising to repeal the Gun and Hate Speech laws. Man up!

@OneNationAus will crush the LNP.

Strong leadership and clear direction is critical. The Liberal party must relentlessly attack wokeness, stand up for Australian values, put Australians first, cut down immigration and restore law and order. They must resist temptations to be crowd pleasers and must resist sitting on any fences or going soft on forces that are trying to destroy us. If Angus Taylor can do this, the Liberal Party may just come out of the identity crisis it is currently in.

Angus, if you’re the answer, then your party is asking the wrong question. The centre wins elections.

I maintain a water drop on my name on X. It’s to remind everyone of the water scandal that you led.

Good luck Gus , you’ll need to bring a flack jacket once you enter the “pit” you’ll need to swing damn hard straight out of the blocks on EVERYTHING!! The electorate are screaming for change in immigration, energy , law & order , defence , government spending, housing , bureaucracy overreach & cost of living , so you’ve got plenty of ammo & you desperately need clear cut policies that are completely opposite to the shit we currently have ! Christ borrow from One Nation , they’re already showing the way !

I suspect Australians are sick and tired of you numpties talking about yourselves and lecturing us on leadership. That's why you're nearly at single figures. You've had your chances. There's no way you will win government again. Most of you are just self-absorbed lefties in suits. We stuck a fork in. You're done.

Unless you state you're going to reduce immigration you're another Labor lite

Stop being like liebor. Less immigration, less regulation, less government spending. enable the people and not yourselves. And stop giving our bldy tax money to welfare students and the worst countries on earth. Just stop it.

Not good enough - labor & liberal are a uni party - u said nothing & shows you haven’t listened to our concerns

Boot Turnbull from the membership then you'll get my attention.

Bit late. We have all bolted. Close the gate and enjoy being alone

Sorry mate its not me its you. #caymanislands #neverforget

Well done. Great move Angus. What a fucking joke. If you become leader I can’t wait to see you get demolished in QT. You don’t have the skills needed to be a leader. If everything was so important you should have returned early from your European holiday. But you didn’t

@Anthony49668762 It's too late for the LNP. You lot voted for the Hate Speech laws which was the final straw. We've all moved to One Nation and we're not coming back. LNP and Labor have taken advantage of us for far too long and we need a change. It's One Nation for me.

Can we talk about the missing millions in water allocations now?

Fantastic. Great Move. Well Done Angus.
