David Littleproud as Nationals Leader .... tic toc

I give it no more than 9 months before a move is made against David Littleproud. You can start the clock now. Tic toc.

There are certain people who did not make it into the Shadow Cabinet and consequently lost out on the salary bumps, extra allowances and extra staff. And for these people, this is utterly unacceptable.

Nothing to do with policy or outcomes. It’s simply personal finance.

It’s already started with this little drop yesterday to James Massola in the SMH/AGE.

‘100 per cent disappointed. Furious’ - Nationals MP says Littleproud misled the party

Note that this story came out AFTER the announcement of the shadow cabinet and not before.

Maybe I am being too cynical. I’ll give it 6 months, not 9. Around the time parliament packs it in for the end of the year.

Start your engines.
