SYDNEY: Australia’s centre-right opposition made a rare policy backflip in the middle of an election campaign, abandoning a plan for a Trump-style crackdown on work from home provisions for government employees after it appeared to become politically damaging.
Opposition Leader Peter Dutton (pic) said the original policy position for the Liberal-National Coalition had been “wrong”, at a press conference in the southern city of Adelaide early on April 7, adding that he apologised to Australians for suggesting it in the first place.
