‘Modern Liberals': Dave Sharma and Tim Wilson rebrand over climate change

They’re billing themselves as the Modern Liberals. Which begs the question who are the old-school Liberals?

 Liberal candidate Dave Sharma is aiming to pry eastern Sydney
seat of Wentworth away from independent MP Kerryn Phelps.

Dave Sharma, the Liberals’ candidate for Wentworth in Sydney’s east, and Tim Wilson, the member for Goldstein, covering Melbourne’s bayside suburbs, have both begun postering their electorates with corflutes that carry the tagline, “modern Liberal”.

More moderate Liberals are expected to follow suit in city electorates that are under pressure from independents and Greens, who are running on platforms of doing more about climate change.

Sharma’s posters don’t even carry the usual Liberal party logo.
