Nationals play down leadership rumours

McCormack confident of party support


19 October 2018

Member for Riverina Michael McCormack has spoken out in response to National Party leadership speculation, telling Sky News that the party is right behind him.

Despite widespread reports that some Queensland-based Nationals are in favor of a change in leadership, Queensland Nats MP Michelle Landry has gone on the record saying there was no truth to the rumour of a potential leadership change.

Darren Chester and Bridget McKenzie have also publicly expressed their support for Mr McCormack.
