Ted O’Brien is taking a leaf out of the Sussan Ley book of posting through a crisis and appearing on any media who will have him. He is speaking to the ABC this morning about all sorts of made up stuff, including that taxes are lower under the Coalition. That’s a furphy – the highest taxing government was the Howard government, followed by the Morrison government.

He is also defying reality by saying that even though the ANU/Griffith university electoral matters survey has found people see Labor as better economic managers for the first time in its 40-year-survey, “others say different things” which is a very Trump response.

Guess you sort of do have to be delulu to get through the days if you are Ted O’Brien
