Cheap Atlanta Falcons Jerseys , July 11 (Xinhua) -- Close confidants of Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull on Tuesday applauded an overnight speech in which Turnbull reminded disgruntled conservative colleagues of the values upon which his governing Liberal Party was founded.


Recent bickering among those in the coalition government, made up of MPs and senators from the Liberal Party and the Nationals Party, has stolen the headlines down under in recent weeks, with conservatives voicing concern that the government's direction was out of touch with traditionally conservative values.


But in a not-so-thinly-veiled swipe at the conservative faction, which includes former Prime Minister Tony Abbott who was ousted by Turnbull in 2015 Tevin Coleman Falcons Jersey , Turnbull reminded MPs of the values upon which the Liberal Party was founded.


Speaking at the Policy Exchange meeting in London overnight, Turnbull said when Sir Robert Menzies, who was prime minister twice between 1939 and 1966, founded the Liberal Party in 1944, it was to be "firmly anchored" in the center of the Australian political spectrum.


On Tuesday Duke Riley Falcons Jersey , Australia's Foreign Minister Julie Bishop was one of many Liberal Party leaders who applauded Turnbull's speech, saying the prime minister "elegantly articulated" the party's values.


"It very elegantly articulates our values as the Liberal Party and it refers to Sir Robert Menzies' efforts in the 1940s to consolidate the center-right of Australian politics," Bishop told Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) radio on Tuesday.


Energy Minister Josh Frydenberg also approved of Turnbull's message, describing the speech as a "powerful" one which would serve to remind Liberal Party members of the party's founding values.


"When it comes to the philosophical underpinnings of our party, Prime Minister Turnbull is absolutely right Ito Smith Falcons Jersey ," Frydenberg told Sky News on Tuesday.


"(Menzies) specifically took the name 'Liberal' because he didn't want our party to become reactionary, and that's very, very important to remember."


Meanwhile, former Liberal Premier of New South Wales, Nick Greiner compounded the criticism of former PM Abbott in saying that Abbott's "five point plan" to win the next federal election Deadrin Senat Falcons Jersey , which included plans to reform the Senate to make it easier for the governing party to pass legislation, was "never going to happen."


"No one is going to reform the constitution with respect to the senate whether that is desirable or not," Greiner told the ABC.


Despite the support for Turnbull's speech, some in Canberra were unhappy with Turnbull's selective quoting of Menzies.


Former Liberal Party Senator Cory Bernardi, who defected to form his own Australian Conservatives party earlier this year Isaiah Oliver Falcons Jersey , said Turnbull's speech only "confirmed why regular Aussies need to join the (conservative movement)."
