From The Australian:
SENIOR Liberals are publicly vowing support for Tony Abbott’s chief-of-staff, Peta Credlin, cautioning the government’s supporters against further “extravagant” and “unhelpful” accusations against the top aide.
The Ministers for Finance, Health, Education and Immigration have all rejected suggestions that Ms Credlin resign as a sacrificial offering to atone for political misjudgments emanating from the Prime Minister’s Office, including the awarding of a knighthood to Prince Philip.
…Ms Ley, when asked about Mr Murdoch’s comments, insisted the government was “very much a team and in support of Peta Credlin”.
Will standing up to their Godfather help?
Meh. The Libs have just boxed in Dead Duck Tony. If Credlin is Tony’s minder and is so marvelous then how apocalyptically horrendous is he?
Firing squad loosens its rifles.
