Sussan Ley looks to industrial relations to woo business back

One of the many problems facing Sussan Ley (in reality interim Liberal leader until Andrew Hastie replaces her next year) is that the Liberals must re-engage with so many constituencies that her outreach risks becoming a jumbled, even self-contradictory hodgepodge of disparate messages.

Having spent the week carefully angering the business sector by refusing to agree a deal with Labor on environmental reforms, Ley has now said journalists will prioritize women voters and industrial relations.
