Local media here in Australia, ABC reporting on NSW, most populous state:
- The NSW Government is in turmoil after Deputy Premier and Nationals leader John Barilaro said his party would no longer support Government legislation in Parliament.
- Barilaro says all Nationals MPs will sit on the cross bench, however, Ministers will not surrender their portfolios.
What a bizarre turn of events. The National Party are the junior coalition partner in the state's government. The Nationals are in disagreement with the Liberal Party (the senior coalition partner) over ... (OK, you are not going to believe this but its true) ... koala planning policy.
Not kidding.
Don't even think about trying to stare down the koala.
