Internal politics trumps external. The LNP is the party that deftly negotiated extensive trade sanctions against Australia for no apparent reason other than wanting to appear tough for 5 minutes with brain dead sound bites for the daily news.

Nothing they do has to be consistent just scream No to everything and throw shit at the wall hoping to get everything dirty so the electorate doesn’t know which way is up.
