"There is, however, concern within the Liberal Party that the new Nationals leader will have a negative impact on the Coalition in urban seats."

Nah, I reckon Well Done Angus has got that covered already.

‘It’s all a bit weird’: Inside Matt Canavan’s ascension

Backers of the new Nationals leader Matt Canavan say the “gloves are off” and it is “war”. Their principal focus is the man Canavan once served as chief of staff, One Nation MP Barnaby Joyce.

The Saturday Paper
@luciedigitalni the Nationals will have to cannibalise (or should that be canavanise) a lower house seat of one of their sitting members.
I have to restrain my schadenfreude watching these pillocks contort themselves over Pauline’s racist mongrel party. #auspol

@luciedigitalni

Matt got the job because he won't shut up. He never, NEVER, says anything useful. You know, like Barnaby but with less concern for the people, if that's possible.

@Arapalla I don't think it is possible. They're both 100% grift.

@luciedigitalni

One works for Gina and the other works for his brother.
