Miserable old ghost Malcolm Turnbull on The Australian's "Orwellian" editorial writers
Thursday, 29 November 2018
This is Malcolm Turnbull leaving politics, not being driven by hate and not being a miserable old ghost.
A work of fiction, satirical and Orwellian to say Turnbull loyalists are blowing up the Morrison Government?
Exhibit One - Turnbull leaves Wentworth, his family actively campaigns against Liberal Party and celebrates when independent Kerryn Phelps replaces him plunging Morrison into minority government.
Exhibit Two - Turnbull loyalist Julia Banks leaves the Liberals, damns the party in her speech to the Parliament while praising and pining for Turnbull - Morrison plunged into very very minority government.
Exhibit Three - Turnbull loyalist Julie Bishop promotes Shorten's energy policy based - cynically - on Turnbull's NEG. She campaigns for a deal to get the Shorten/Turnbull policy up.
Here's Turnbull's Orwellian editorial. I'd say it's spot on.
