"It might be easy for you to sit in 7.30 Report land and say that was easy to do. Let me tell you mate, it wasn't.

Opposition climate change spokesman Greg Hunt likened Mr Rudd's inflamed display to former Labor leader Mark Latham.
Mr Rudd had flip-flopped on emissions trading and now his mood was volatile, too, Mr Hunt said.

"He is making wildly erratic decisions and morphing into Mark Latham, but without the conviction."
I think your on the money Mr Hunt.
