![Opposition Leader Bill Shorten appears to have a problem with answering direct questions honestly.](/web/20170222222631im_/http://www.theage.com.au/content/dam/images/g/u/e/k/7/m/image.related.landscape.460x307.gufi8c.png/1487673924229.jpg)
Shorten should be on a roll, but he's manifestly divorced from reality
Bill Shorten has never been more dominant than this February. His Australian Labor Party leads the Coalition convincingly in many polls, while the public has seen a petulant side to Malcolm Turnbull in question time that is rather unattractive. So the Opposition Leader's performance during the past fortnight should have been a success.
