Patrick Gorman (Perth, Australian Labor Party, Assistant Minister to the Prime Minister) Share this | Hansard source

I want to quote former Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull, someone that all on that side respect and that all on that side urged the Australian people to vote for to be Prime Minister of this country and sat with in the cabinet room with week after week, year after year. He said this about the now Leader of the Opposition: 'The Leader of the Opposition basically never wants to do anything risky. He is not a leader. He lacks courage or conviction, other than when he can revert to some hardline measures he thinks will go down well on 2GB.'
