There are conflicting reports, but it appears that Joe Hockey has confirmed he does not want the top job, and will support Malcolm Turnbull by voting against a spill tomorrow. With Tony Abbott the only declared candidate, it will be a Left/Right fight.

But Hockey has not ruled out standing if there IS a spill.

More to come.

    You can't help but think that Joe Hockey is smarter than he looks if he doesn't want to lead this rabble. Given the CRU Climategate revelations, it's depressing to think that this is the best we as a country can offer up in the defence of sanity. Bring me my Kool Aid!
