Turnbull the Traitor

[Black Orchid]

If anyone needs further evidence of the self-defeating weird places the Liberals seem to find themselves in, consider what happened on Tuesday.

Malcolm Turnbull made another intervention in the political debate, this time talking about the National Energy Guarantee, when he spoke at an energy conference on Tuesday morning.

“I’ve strongly encouraged my colleagues to work together to revive the National Energy Guarantee. It was a vital piece of economic policy and had strong support, and none stronger I might say, than that of the current Prime Minister and the current Treasurer,” he said.

This and the rest of Turnbull’s observations on energy policy provided abundant material for a question time attack by a Labor party bloated from dining on the unending manna that’s been flowing its way from some political heaven.

As Scott Morrison sought to counter this latest attack by concentrating on Labor’s substantial emissions reduction target (45% on 2005 levels by 2030), suddenly a tweet appeared from Turnbull.

“I have not endorsed "Labor’s energy policy”. They have adopted the NEG mechanism,“ Turnbull said - adding a tick of approval - "but have not demonstrated that their 45% emissions reduction target will not push up prices. I encouraged all parties to stick with Coalition’s NEG which retains wide community support.”

Here was the former PM effectively inserting himself into Question Time - in real time.

And he refused to endorse the Lib candidate for Wentworth why? Because he has left politics!

Hey Malcolm old fellow, they aren't "your colleagues" any more, remember you resigned and took your bat and ball and went off to New York? You are now just a "citizen" and should shut your bloody trap!

they all live on a fantasyland.....

we have shortarse ringing up turncoat telling him what a wonderful job he had don e.......seriously we are mean t to believe this crud..

then we have


In 1991, billionaire Kerry Packer cut Turnbull out of a deal to take over the Fairfax newspapers, despite having been almost a father-figure to the young lawyer.

Turnbull repaid that rejection by leaking damaging information on the deal to the Australian Broadcasting Tribunal, and Packer’s bid failed.

In 1999, Turnbull was head of the Australian Republican Movement, signing up celebrities to say how wonderful his republic would be. But the public voted no in the referendum and Turnbull reacted to that rejection like he’d been cheated of love, raging that the no-voting John Howard “was the prime minister who broke this nation’s heart”.

In 2009, the Liberals dumped Turnbull as opposition leader after he tried to make them back Labor’s global warming policy.

Furious at being rejected again, Turnbull crossed the floor to vote against the Liberals and embarrassed new leader Tony Abbott by attacking his global warming stance and claiming Abbott had confessed — in a private conversation — to being “a bit of a weather vane”.

Take Nick Greiner, who Turnbull picked to be the Liberals’ federal president.

Told on Monday that Turnbull was now demanding Prime Minister Scott Morrison call an early election, which he’d obviously lose, Greiner admitted Turnbull’s meddling was “certainly not helpful and it wouldn’t appear to have been intended to be helpful”.

It was the same with Matt Kean, a NSW minister from Turnbull’s own soft-Left faction and a member of the Liberals’ NSW executive.

Turnbull rang Kean on Sunday to get him to stop Morrison from imposing a peace plan on the party that would save Craig Kelly from being stripped of his preselection.

Turnbull mocked Morrison for just trying “to keep his arse in C1”, the prime minister’s car, and said he should be forced the polls.

Kean was so appalled by the treachery that he told journalists and the faction bosses who were about to defy Morrison backed him instead.

Turnbull may have been thwarted this time but don’t think he’s finished with the Liberals. This war is to the knife.

I used to like him. My mistake

[Rorschach]

Turnbull showed up at the Wentworth Liberal Party party... he even had his photo taken with Sharma.
Talk about a deluded hypocrite.

Hmm... where was he during the by-election? What has he been doing since?
What is wrong with these Wentworth drones?
