After Emma Alberici questioned Malcolm Turnbull’s commitment to liberalism, Chris Kenny lept to the defence of the PM.
So we now have a Liberal PM who's whacking a tax on banks, interfering in energy mkt & now using taxpayer $ to prop up commercial media ????

The green left suddenly find an interest in economic rationalism. #theirABC all about the side, not the principle. No one in charge. https://t.co/Lc2llDH8gI

Well indeed. The divide is there to see today. Rudd's failure to call a Double D in Feb 2010 was the fatal mistake that kept all this alive
