    Straight from the IPA, one of the Lib's great thinktanks, as well as similar comments from many backbenchers.

    Don't pretend that this policy isn't deeply unpopular in the LNP ranks, or that Labor having problems somehow means that the Liberal party never has internal issues. I dont think it will destroy the party, but a lot of conservatives certainly would have many reasons to oppose it.

    I'm cool with Abbott's PPL personally (its better than no PPL is the way I see it), but don't pretend this is something an old Labor guy would get behind, because that is what was suggested.
