It’s getting pathetic now:
Mr Dutton, considered a future leader of the Liberal Party, said he believed Mr Pyne had realised he had “made a mistake” and been “chastised” as a consequence after delivering the address to colleagues.
“Tony’s right to point out that he feels that way (about Mr Pyne) and he would express that and it’s a natural response he would have,” Mr Dutton told 2GB radio.
…“It’s important for all of those reasons for us to accept that which has gone on in the past and not to let it consume us.”
Mr Dutton, who described himself as a “leader in the government”, pleaded with “rusted on conservatives” who had turned away from the party to return.
The Immigration Minister holds the Queensland seat of Dickson on a margin of 1.6 per cent.
“I want to reach out to those people because as a conservative and as a leader in the government I want those people and I need those people to support us and to vote for us at the next election,” he said.
“If they want to support work I’m doing in border protection and national security they need to vote for our government … Myself, Mathias Cormann and others do work closely with the Prime Minister, we do offer advice and he’s accused of being ‘captured by the Right’ because he listens to Mathias and I or he hasn’t changed the boats policy. It’s not a perfect world. It’s not an easy world but we deal with the hands we’ve been dealt.”
It’s not about the boats any more, Creepy, it’s about the planes. They know you’re a fake.
Cut immigration or prepare for opposition.
