A lot of people shit on Turnbull because they think you can just do whatever you want with no repercussions when you’re PM. But that is such a narrow minded way of thinking.
We’ve got one of the most left leaning PMs in recent history right now who still needs to appease both sides of politics. You don’t just get a blank cheque in a democracy.

I’m no fan of the tax cuts myself, but he also can’t just do what he likes as PM without consulting his colleagues and convincing the electorate. PMs are not dictators here and nor would we want them to be.
