In response to Dreyfus leaves little legacy

Was it a strategic mistake to sack Husic?

I am wondering if the ALP has made a strategic mistake in removing Ed Husic (who I have always found to be a reasonable politician).

In saying this, I look to Senator Fatima Payman, who has started a new party after resigning. My reason for wondering is the tendency these days to split issues instead of being inclusive.

In my personal judgment, I feel the person who should go is Richard Marles, who I have never been fond of. I feel he is not a particlarly effective politician, so give someone else a go at the Defence portfolio, please.
