‘Things Have to Change’: Frydenberg Launches Attack on Taylor’s Time as Liberal Leader
Frydenberg said the party faces an existential threat and left open a comeback as polling showed Taylor trailing Albanese by 10 points.
On Sunday, former Treasurer Josh Frydenberg used a 60 Minutes interview to attack Angus Taylor's leadership, claiming the Liberal Party faces an "existential" threat and polling at an "all-time low."
New Redbridge polling released Sunday shows just 22 per cent of surveyed voters prefer Taylor as prime minister, trailing both Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and One Nation's Pauline Hanson.
Despite the attack, Taylor publicly welcomed Frydenberg back into the fold, while Frydenberg's recently released memoir has fueled rumors of a political comeback.
On Monday, independent Kooyong MP Monique Ryan dismissed the former treasurer's potential candidacy, stating, "I'm not bothered either way," noting voters previously rejected him over climate policy.
With the next election 18 months away, Frydenberg has not closed the door on a comeback, though any candidacy would first require him to win a preselection contest.
