“Julia would be welcome to participate in the campaign in any way she chose fit,” Rudd said during an interview on ABC TV’s 730 programme.
“And as you know, when I’ve been asked about Julia in recent days, I’ve been very direct and very frank about the positive role she’s played in our party and the contributions she’s made to disability care policy, education policy and the measurement of academic standards of schools – great achievements.”

That interview did Kevin Rudd no favours whatsoever. Just sounded like a technocratic version of Abbott. #abc730 #ausvotes

PM Rudd certainly knows his policy details. You’d never see that from Tony Abbott. #abc730 #auspol

Too much of that testy tantrum thrower coming through in the Rudd interview. Not a good look

Rudd is better at using a lot of words to say nothing than Abbott, but they’re both too belligerent when questioned. #abc730 #arrogant
