‘We have to do way better’: Littleproud addresses LNP women problem | Zach Hope
Nationals leader David Littleproud says the Coalition must “do way better” when it comes to listening to women if it is to restore the trust he believes was lost while in government.
This, the perceived disconnect with female voters, was the only mistake Littleproud referenced in his near-20-minute speech. He instead used almost all of his stage time to defend the Coalition’s time in government, including its much-criticised responses to natural disasters and the slow rollout of COVID-19 vaccines.
“It’s an international commitment that gives us a licence to trade,” he said. “It’s the right thing to do.”Speaking in his place, Littleproud again called for the new Labor government to explore small modular nuclear reactors as a means to a low-emissions energy future.“We’re not saying it’s going to happen tomorrow, we’re not saying you’re going to have a big nuclear power plant in Australia anywhere,” he said.
