<p class="MsoNormal">I still wonder how much of Turnbull's poor performance as communications manager was under direction from Abbott, and whether we may see some changes after the change of leadership. I just don't think someone with his legal, business and
comms background (as much as his comms background could well have been in the legal/business side of things) thought that some of the policies he was pushing forward were any good. I wouldn't put it past him that he was happy to push stupid policy in the
name of destabilising the leadership of the time...<o:p></o:p></p>
