EXCLUSIVE: We can reveal that a well-organised and powerful group of rebel Federal Labor MPs have been meeting and plotting behind the back of leader Anthony Albanese. And he didn’t know about it until our political editor @vanOnselenP broke the story. #auspol

So now both Labor and the Coalition are having internal issues over climate change and the coal industry I have a feeling the status quo is going to come out on top, as usual.

Great. That’s all Australia needs. Another right-wing splinter group.

If Labor loses the next election through disunity, we will never forgive them.

I see a number from the Right, what a surprise. They hate being on the outer and for the Left to be in charge. Why can’t they just zip and get in with developing policy for the next election?

So over the party system...

no fighting in public like the Coalition is at the moment. Australians need an effective Opposition and alternative now. Don’t play into the government’s hands.

as part of this. There can be no good that comes from siding with the likes of Joel Fitzgibbon and his right wing allies

Good. Labor needs to get policy sorted fast. Enough sitting on the fence. Get as far from the Greens as possible if Labor wants a chance. Fools.

Never seen a bigger beat up. You're starting to embarrass yourself with this nonsense. A group discussing policy direction and ideas and you make out it's an attack on Albo Seriously Pete, Desperate days
