Abbott to keep going
TONY Abbott has for the first time addressed claims he is causing disunity among Liberals, saying he has made a “judgment” call to continue raising issues important to disenfranchised party members.
“It’s important for someone to stand up for those Liberals feeling a bit let down and disenfranchised because we do not want the more traditional or conservative Liberals to leave the party and join some other party,” Mr Abbott said.
But Mr Abbott indicated his criticisms of the Turnbull government would have an enddate, saying he would throw his support behind the Coalition ahead of the next election.
