Australians ‘aggrieved’ with Liberal party right now: Hume
Federal Liberal deputy leader, Jane Hume , says the South Australian election result has sent a message to her party, that the public are “looking for a change”.

The state election result over the weekend showed One Nation was able to turn some of its polling into seats in the upper and lower houses.

Some within the Liberals have called the polling showing One Nation ahead of the Coalition as a “protest” or “middle finger” voting.

Hume told Sky News earlier this morning her party will “not be responding either to the left, to the right or one party or another.”
She says the Coalition will have to offer up a better policy platform to win back voters at the next election.

double quotation mark I think the biggest message for the federal coalition is that Australia is looking for change.

They are rightly aggrieved right now.

They are looking for solutions to their high energy bills, to an out of control immigration policy where they want sensible settings, and they want their standard of living improved and their way of life restored, I think that that is not an unacceptable or unreasonable request.

Hume says Ashton Hurn , the SA Liberal leader, fought valiantly, “after a scandal-ridden previous coalition opposition in South Australia.”
