My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Brandis. When asked on Sunday how he intends to turn around 25 consecutive Newspoll losses, leaks from cabinet and backflips at the behest of backbenchers, Mr Turnbull said, 'But, you know, next year we've got the National Energy Guarantee to finally complete and implement.' Given Mr Turnbull has so far this year floated and scrapped an emissions intensity scheme and a clean energy target and still hasn't got agreement on his latest proposal, the National Energy Guarantee, why should the Australian people believe Mr Turnbull's scorecard next year will be any better than this year's?
