100-Year-Old Volunteer's Inspiring Story

0:00From Adelaide, this is your March 10th update. David Little Proud has stepped down his leader of Australia's national's party in a surprise move. The Queensland MP for Maranoa made the announcement on Tuesday, saying he has reached his limit after years in the role. He plans to stay on as a member of Parliament, but hand over leadership. Little Proud first won his safe seat in 2016. He took the top nationals job in 2022, right after the coalition lost the federal election. His time in charge saw ups and downs, including tensions with the liberal partners. Under his watch, the nationals briefly broke off their coalition deal with the liberals over policy differences, only to patch things up later. A second split happened in January this year amid a fight over hate speech laws, but they reunited again soon after. The decision caught many off guard with no immediate word on whom I replace him. But party insiders say the leadership change could shake up rural politics ahead of future elections. For now, more details are expected as the national sort out their next steps.
