Matt Kean was heading home on the train one Friday afternoon five weeks ago when his mobile phone lit up with an unexpected call from federal Climate Change and Energy Minister Chris Bowen.
Climate Change and Energy Minister Chris Bowen has helped recruit a senior Liberal, and a public critic of nuclear power, in a way that reminds voters of the gulf within the Coalition on energy and climate.Bowen had to wait for Kean to hop off the train at the next stop and find some privacy at the far end of Chatswood Station before they could talk undisturbed about a role that would outrage federal Liberals and Nationals, who believe one of their own has joined the enemy.
The call came at an ideal time for Kean because, he says, he had already decided to end his time as a NSW backbencher and seek new posts in the private sector. He kept the decision to himself, however, and onlyFederal cabinet signed off on the appointment on Monday morning and Prime Minister Anthony Albanese clearly sees it as a coup. Bowen has helped recruit a senior Liberal and a public critic of nuclear power in a way that reminds voters of the gulf within the Coalition on energy and climate.
