Joyce’s leadership ambitions remain alive and well | Sky News AustraliaMichael McCormack may have fended off a challenge from Barnaby Joyce but that won’t do much to quash the former Nationals leader's long-term leadership ambitions, according to Political Reporter Trudy McIntosh. \n\nA spill for the leadership was called on Tuesday morning after Bridget McKenzie’s resignation as deputy leader created a vacuum for Mr Joyce to mount a challenge. \n\nWhile Scott Morrison has yet to comment on the outcome of the vote, earlier he told reporters the Coalition would remain strong no matter the leadership make up. \n\nImage: News Corp Australia How good are the Nationals.... while the The_Nationals continue to be Scott Morrison and Liberals lapdog, they will fade in to irrelevance. Regional Australia has the most low, middle income families, pensioners and the most vulnerable YET Nationals continue to side with liberals attacking their own base. Anyone game enough to open a book on how long McCormack will last? He can't survive as leader of a party in which 10 of the 21 members don't want him as leader. His position is untenable. I say he'll be out within a month.

'Shenanigans are over': Nationals assure party is 'back to business' | Sky News AustraliaMichael McCormack has survived a leadership challenge by Barnaby Joyce after the former leader mounted a frenzied, but ultimately unsuccessful, campaign to take back his old job. \n\nA spill for the leadership was called on Tuesday morning after Bridget McKenzie’s resignation as deputy leader created a vacuum for Mr Joyce to challenge for the top job. \n\nDavid Littleproud was elected as the former deputy's successor after fending off challengers David Gillespie and Keith Pitt. \n\nFollowing the announcement, Mr McCormack said his party was moving forward as a united front, and promised his party was focused on delivering for Australia’s regions. \n\nThe leader of the Nationals said he did not expect another move from Mr Joyce in the near future, insisting “I’ve shook hands with Barnaby and we’re going to move on”. \n\nNew deputy leader David Littleproud also assured Australians it was 'now back to business”. \n\n“The shenanigans are over, it's time to get back to looking after those people that are facing drought,' he said. \n\n'It's time for us to focus on them, not us.' So are the Nats. A once great party, now a shallow husk.
