The shadow treasurer has told a global conservative movement to focus on aspiration and prosperity to heal polarisation.
Conservatives must focus on economics to overcome cultural divisions like those exposed by Australia’s Voice to parliament referendum, federal shadow treasurer Angus Taylor has said.This has triggered an internal debate within the Coalition about whether the Liberals should abandon inner-city supporters to the left and pursue Labor voters living in traditionally working-class areas.
Taylor said that conservatives around the world had to return to talking about aspiration and opportunity. “Conservatives around the globe need to rediscover the importance of aspiration as the key to bringing their populations along in the debate about our institutions and our cultures because economics does matter so much.“At the end of the day, voters want the opportunity to get ahead. And if that’s not the centrepiece of our economic agenda, then I think conservative oppositions or governments or parties across the world will find it very difficult to get into and to stay in power.
