Angus Taylor addresses CPAC on Liberal Party direction

Liberal Party Leader Angus Taylor delivered a keynote address to CPAC in Brisbane, addressing the party's past performance and its future direction. Taylor acknowledged previous mistakes made by the Liberal government, specifically citing excessive pandemic spending and the decision to commit to net zero emissions, a policy he stated he detested from the beginning.

Taylor criticized the current Albanese Labor government for an explosion in immigration numbers, particularly regarding student and bridging visas. He positioned the Coalition, alongside Matt Canavan’s leadership of the Nationals, as a conviction-led and right-leaning alternative to the current administration. He emphasized a bold agenda aimed at addressing what he described as Australia’s economic, social, and cultural decline.
