Welcome to Matt Canavan’s ‘hyper-Australia’
Queensland Senator Matt Canavan has claimed the National Party leadership, with Victorian MP Darren Chester elected as Deputy Nationals leader. The new Nationals leader has promised to "fight back" for Australians and called for a "hyper-Australia" approach. PK and Clare discuss how Matt Canavan's pitch could be the regional party's "best chance" to win back voters on the right from One Nation, but could be bad news for the Liberal party. The Nationals leadership shake-up comes after David Littleproud's shock exit from the role, with the Maranoa MP declaring he was 'buggered' and had run out of steam. Patricia Karvelas and Clare Armstrong break it all down on Politics Now. Got a burning question? Got a burning political query?
