Turnbull’s ‘sensible centre’ sounds more like an androgynous zone, rather than a place on the spectrum of conservativeness. On one end of the conservative spectrum, Tony Abbott is jumping up and down, in some kind of ‘Oppositional Defiance Disorder’ boogie. For someone who claimed he wasn’t going to snipe, Tony sure seems to be trending on the snipe hashtag. On the other end of the spectrum is Malcolm. Malcolm, who was once considered to be so left, that he was in the wrong party, claims that he is now ‘Malcolm in the middle’. Perhaps, Turnbull is indeed in the middle, as he is someone who personally believes in marriage equality, but stands vehemently by the party line. I will say one good thing for Turnbull, and that is he has managed to get the conservatives to finally talk about climate change, and it seems things are starting to change in this arena. If Turnbull can take a stand and push for marriage equality, he will be long remembered for this, and will go down in history as one of our greatest leaders, for leading positive change.
