Fed: Labor conference was on Mogadon
CANBERRA, Aug 2 AAP - Opposition frontbencher Tony Abbott has slammed the conduct of
Labor's national conference, describing it as a gathering on Mogadon.
The three-day conference, the first since the 2007 federal election ended more than
11 years of coalition government, came to a close on Saturday with criticism that it was
too stage-managed and lacking passionate debates of previous years.
"It's been a conference on Mogadon," Mr Abbott told the Ten Network on Sunday, adding
it was bad for "our polity".
"Debate is a good thing, a sign of life, not division and there's no life in modern Labor."
