Labor likely to shift to Rudd: Turnbull

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 14 Februari 2013 | 20.47

THE Labor government will probably switch to former prime minister Kevin Rudd from Julia Gillard before the election, opposition communications spokesman Malcolm Turnbull says.

"I think it is likely they will put him back," Mr Turnbull told ABC Television on Thursday.

"The Gillard government goes from one catastrophe to another."

Labor's standing in the electorate fell in the most recent Newspoll, with the coalition having a 12-point buffer in the two-party-preferred vote.

Mr Turnbull, an opposition leader during Mr Rudd's tenure as prime minister, said the government had made a mess of the mining tax.

Federal Treasurer Wayne Swan has received great criticism in parliament this week for his handling of the minerals resource rent tax (MRRT).

MRRT revenue was $126 million for the six months to December, short of the $2 billion forecast for this financial year.

"The fate of the mining tax is colossal," Mr Turnbull said.

The Labor government switched to Ms Gillard as leader in June 2010, and she subsequently defeated Mr Rudd in a leadership challenge in February 2012.
