Now being reported at The Australian: Eric Abetz: now bring Tony Abbott back to cabinet
Liberal senator Eric Abetz has called for Tony Abbott to be brought back into the cabinet after the sudden departure of two frontbenchers embroiled in controversy.
Cities Minister Jamie Briggs was yesterday forced to resign in disgrace after admitting an “error of professional judgment” in relation to an incident involving a young female public servant in Hong Kong while Special Minister of State Mal Brough stepped down pending the outcome of a police investigation into his role in the Peter Slipper affair.
Very messy and not a good look. I’m still not sure what Briggs had done, but I have to say that he would have to be off his rocker if he was a member of the cabinet and tried any of that Bill Clinton stuff.
