“Hundreds” desert Libs over Abbottalypse

Hard not laugh at this one from The Australian:

The Liberal Party is receiving hundreds of letters of resignation from branch members nationwide, refusals to work on election campaigns and threats to join or create new parties as a result of the removal of Tony ­Abbott as prime minister.

The loss of “hundreds” of votes in return for millions of others is about right.
