Senior federal Liberals "spilling their guts" about the Howard government's downfall is degrading, outspoken former Victorian Liberal premier Jeff Kennett says. 

Mr Kennett said he would not watch tonight's ABC television Four Corners program, in which senior Liberals tell of the former Howard government's final weeks. 

"No I'm not and I tell you I think it is degrading," Mr Kennett told Fairfax Radio Network. 

"I think it is terribly degrading when individuals who have been part of what I can only describe as a very successful team, after that team finds their position ... changed, that they've got to come out and justify themselves and spill their guts on the internal workings of an organisation. 

"I think it's degrading for the organisation, I think it's degrading for the individuals."
