| Former deputy Liberal leader Julie Bishop has revived calls for the Coalition to secure bipartisan support with Labor on energy policy, and resolve differences within the party on climate change. |
In a speech to the Hong Kong business community on Friday, Ms Bishop will also stress the conundrum facing politicians pitching to an electorate comfortable with decades of economic comfort and divided over whether the government was interfering too much or doing too little.
Ms Bishop singled out energy policy and climate change as being at the heart of political disruption in Australia, noting the National Energy Guarantee was the closest the Coalition had come to achieving consensus with Labor.
