Abbott isolated in a meeting that put a premium on unity

The immense challenge facing the Turnbull government was put into words by Victorian Liberal MP Sarah Henderson when she urged her colleagues to back the National Energy Guarantee.
Former prime minister Tony Abbott during question
 time at Parliament House on Tuesday.
Henderson told the party room meeting on Tuesday about the grave risk facing MPs in marginal seats, herself included, if there was any further disunity on energy and climate.

She aimed her remark at Tony Abbott and everyone in the room knew it. She looked at the former prime minister as she called for all sides to get behind the policy.
