Charlie Pickering: Turnbull's being bullied by his own party

Pickering

Comedian Charlie Pickering delivered a comedic, but achingly accurate, overview of recent political debates over marriage equality and the Safe Schools Coalition.

Pickering told the audience of his TV show ‘The Weekly’ that Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull was being bullied by members of his own government to do things he didn’t want to do. If only there was a program designed to help people being bullied… the comedian joked.
