The new deputy Liberal leader, Ted O’Brien, is up next.
First off the bat, he’s asked whether the Liberals and Nationals will strike a formal agreement or go their separate ways after the election disaster.
There’s no doubt .. that the Liberal Party and the National Party are at their strongest when they are in a Coalition and they’re working together. That’s proven to be the case over many many years.
