Sussan Ley and David Littleproud Agree to Unite Parties

The Coalition of Liberal and National parties will reunite following a three-week split, with leaders Sussan Ley and David Littleproud acknowledging the difficulties faced by supporters. A deal has been reached to restore former Nationals frontbenchers after a six-week backbench period, addressing the recent discord over hate-speech laws. Formal agreements will be signed to reinforce shadow cabinet solidarity, following resignations from three Nationals who defied party consensus. Tensions remain high as minor-party One Nation gains traction in the political landscape.
