Former Queensland Liberal premier Campbell Newman says Opposition Leader Sussan Ley needs to go out on the “front foot and go hard,” following the Liberal Party’s decision to abandon net-zero.
“You can’t make this sort of decision and be half pregnant. You’ve got to go out there with conviction,” Mr Newman told Sky News host Steve Price.
“Now, argue why net-zero is so bad for Australians … why it has increased the cost of living.
“Don’t try and straddle the barbed wire fence.”
