I've covered this guy a long time. I think he has a real habit of reverting to condescending pablum. But when he gets put in the hot seat, he actually speaks clearly, explains his reasoning, and talks to the country like they're adults.
We're unfortunately seeing that version of the PM more and more rarely.
I’m no fan of the PM, but you gotta hand it to him.. he held up pretty well, maintaining his poise in what must be a helluva long day.

when you see him in this format.. he really does look competent and under control
Agree. He is so much more convincing when he speaks like a normal person. Can't say I have every seen him do that before today.
Indeed.. we could use more adulthood in our politics generally
Yeah, he's been pretty steady.
