The SMH argues in its recent editorial that Trunbull's decision to block Kevin Rudd's UN Secretary-General bid was a blunder. The lack of explanation for the decision makes this appear even more politically motivated.
In the editorial, the paper points out "Mr Turnbull has said Mr Rudd is "not well suited" for the job, but is not saying why.
"An information vacuum makes this appear even more politically motivated."
In this sense the paper calls on the Federal cabinet to show leadership and consign political cynicism to the background in dealing with Kevin Rudd's United Nations leadership ambitions.
