Analysis: The Prime Minister cannot avoid a confrontation with the unhappy Nationals, writes David Crowe | CroweDM

The mere existence of a 2050 strategy raises expectations among Liberals who answer to city voters worried about climate change. These include Katie Allen in Higgins, Trevor Evans in Brisbane, Jason Falinski in Mackellar, Andrew Laming in Bowman, Fiona Martin in Reid, Tim Wilson in Goldstein, Dave Sharma in Wentworth and Trent Zimmerman in North Sydney.

The government’s existing target, to cut emissions by 26 per cent by 2030 on 2005 levels, was never legislated because to do so would have inflamed the Coalition party room when the former leader, Malcolm Turnbull, could not risk a revolt. Australians who want greater action on climate change expect Morrison to be more ambitious on emissions, but this is dangerous to the point of explosive when the Nationals are in such a state of unrest.

CroweDM Why don't the Nationals like democracy. They had a free and fair election for their leader but 3 of them don't like the result and are trying to bring down their own party. Bizarre actions

CroweDM Newsflash David Crowe; It is not only city voters who want action on climate, the only people who don’t want action are those with vested interests like Media owners & the hysterical Murdoch mouthpieces

CroweDM Birds of a feather . . .

CroweDM I recon if the Libs had some rural friendly policies and dumped the nationals they would get at least as many seats as they have now.

CroweDM I can’t fathom why politicians make policies for thirty years into the future. As if any future governments would stick to them. Some of the LNP should just worry themselves about keeping out of jail in the next few years.

CroweDM Aussie politics.
