The main focus for Taylor and Deputy Liberal Leader Jane Hume is Labor’s upcoming Budget.

“Anthony Albanese has launched an attack on ambition,” Taylor remarked.

“The Labor government has overspent, overtaxed, and imposed excessive regulations,” Hume commented.

The party’s federal council is optimistic about reclaiming its position, as Labor and the Teals make gains on the left and One Nation presses from the right.

“We are not a party of grievance or protest, we are a party of prosperity,” Hume said.

Shadow treasurer Tim Wilson it was “a day of renewal” for the party and an opportunity to try to “build a better future for the country”.

Federal MP Ben Small said the organisation “is in very safe hands” as it seeks to “get on and fight like hell, as Angus says”.

The Liberal Party under new management is facing a government with an unpopular budget, which gives the opposition something fresh to fight for. 

“It’s clear that the Coalition and Labor stand for completely different things and have completely different visions for our country,” Taylor said.

“Our job is to be our very best selves, because at our best we are unbeatable,” Abbott said.

Energy minister Chris Bowen said today the Liberal Party is “a party focused on the culture wars of the past”.

“Nobody says that more clearly than Tony Abbott,” energy minister Chris Bowen said.

With the next election still two years away, the task now is to keep this momentum growing.
