It's often been said that politics is something of a revolving door.

Certainly across the ditch that's been the case with John Key's bromancer Malcolm Turnbull as he announced what he described as his "21st Century Cabinet" which will come as a surprise to many considering we thought we'd moved into that time zone a few years back.

But following in the footsteps of Teflon John, and no doubt hoping for the same success the Kiwi Prime Minister has had here, he swept the Cabinet floor clean, announcing five women in the top lineup. Key's actually got six with three more waiting in the wings as Ministers on the outside looking in.

At least it's a start though with the door revolving for the man who had been as affectionate with Bill English as Turnbull's been for Key. The Treasurer Joe Hockey is gone, replaced by a fellow who once had a close association with this country, Scott Morrison.

He was once a tourism bureaucrat in Wellington, brought in by none other than Muzza McCully. Morrison was one of the driving forces behind the 100% New Zealand Pure logo but lost the political patronage of McCully when, as Tourism Minister, he resigned over the golden handshakes scandal involving tourism board members who didn't like the way he micro managed the ministry.

And that's where the political revolving door's come into play. Hockey actually gave Morrison a job after he left here, heading Aussie tourism which turned out to be an own goal with Morrison now replacing Hockey. In fact while he was in the Aussie tourism job, it was anything but a 100% pure, with the now new Treasurer presiding over the troubled "Where the bloody hell are you?" campaign.

If the latest opinion polls are anything to go by here, the door could be revolving in this country in two years time. Luigi Peters is where he bloody well likes to be, holding the balance of power, deciding who the next Government will be.

Of course he'll never say who he'd go with, trotting out the now familiar chant, that's the for the public to decide.

It'd be hard to see him leaning towards Teflon John though who he's never forgiven for writing him off and seeing him off the three years in 2008.

So he'd be more sympathetic to Labour, and if they are in a position to form a Government, he'd secretly like the Prime Ministerial door to revolve.

Ask him about that prospect though, the cheeky face crinkles and the pearly whites flash in his usual non committal way. Read between the wrinkles though and the answer's obvious!
