Yesterday we were saying &ldquo;rest in peace&rdquo; to the Coalition &ndash; but today there are signs it could be reborn. The Liberal and National parties are back at the negotiating table to see if they can repair their broken bond. How Sussan Ley handles this moment will say a lot about the future of the Liberal Party&nbsp; under her leadership.

Today, chief political correspondent for&nbsp;The Saturday Paper, Karen Barlow, on why the Coalition might suddenly be reforming and whether they can ever really trust each other again. &nbsp; If you enjoy 7am, the best way you can support us is by making a contribution at <a href="http://7ampodcast.com.au/support">7ampodcast.com.au/support</a>. &nbsp; Socials: Stay in touch with us on <a href="http://www.instagram.com/7ampodcast">Instagram</a> Guest: Chief political correspondent for The Saturday Paper, Karen Barlow.
