The outspoken 3 Coalition 4 MP Wilson Tuckey has branded that the opposition leader is arrogant 5 and inexperienced, after he offered the government conditional 6 support for his proposed emission’s training scheme. Mr. Turnbull isn’t commenting on the attack, but his deputy Julie Bishop 7 says Mr. Tuckey’s comments don’t reflect this unity 8.

The conflicts made famous by burglary that led to the President Richard Nixon's resignation went on the market after its owners defaulted on a loan. Bidding opened at twenty five million US dollars. There were no takers but auctioneers are still hoping to raise interest from a private buyer.
