Time to put Dutton ‘in a corner where he belongs’ and ‘get on’ with growing the economy

Former Labor senator Stephen Conroy says it’s time to put Opposition Leader Peter Dutton “in a corner where he belongs” and get on with growing Australia’s economy.

He said the business community have been crying out for the last five years for a fix on climate and the enterprise bargaining system.

“We got the ideologically driven 1980s style thinking of Peter Dutton and the Liberal Party,” Mr Conroy told Sky News Australia.

“They could never do it; they could never get there.

“Ordinary Australians want a chance to increase their real wages.”
