Late yesterday, former Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce announced he's leaving his current political party, The Nationals. It comes after months of speculation about the move, and could have major implications for the strength of the current Coalition opposition, and the longer-term electoral success of the Nationals in key regional parts of the country. On today’s podcast, we'll break down who Barnaby Joyce is, why he's done this, and what it could mean for the balance of power in Canberra.
