I mentioned this in my opening statement, that I don't see any reason why someone can't speak truth to power in the open. We need to have a government that's actually open and democratic, which means you have these conversations in the open. You discuss possibilities, options, with the public. There's no need to do this behind closed doors except in the rare cases, again, where there might be harm or injury.
These are not discussions of the political party and its strategy. Those discussions the party can have, but when you're in cabinet, there's absolutely no reason why it cannot be in the open.
