Attorney-General Christian Porter has ruled out running for the seat of Curtin if Julie Bishop decides to quit, saying the marginal seat of Pearce is his community.

Mr Porter, who voted for Peter Dutton in the leadership spill, conceded voters were expressing a "high level of frustration" about recent events and told 6PR radio on Wednesday that he agreed it was a disappointing week.

But he said he was confident new Prime Minister Scott Morrison would provide stable leadership, describing him as "a massive friend" to Western Australia and the architect behind the GST fix.
