Peta Credlin sets the record straight on ABC documentary ‘Nemesis’

Sky News host Peta Credlin has responded to the ABC’s Nemesis documentary from Monday and opened up after 10 years since the collapse of the Abbott prime ministership.

Titled ‘The Abbott Years’ the documentary series explores Mr Abbott’s ‘thumping victory’ in 2013 before being removed as prime minister in less than two years later.

“Like Abbott, I declined to appear on the program because I was certain of a selective and distorted version of my response to the usual crap that I was too tough; too tough on entitlements, they said.

“I served as a political staffer for 16 years because I believe in the Liberal Party’s values – perfect? No one is, but I was loyal, absolutely loyal and always working for the government, not trying to undermine it.

“That’s why it hurt so much to see the party used by carpet baggers and careerists who should never have been given the honour of Liberal Party pre-selection in the first place.”
