Senator Joyce and Natalie Joyce said today they were deeply saddened by the death of Matt Price.

“I can clearly picture Matt now, shoulders hunched and shirt untucked, like an eagle observing its quarry from the gallery in Canberra.

“I’m sure Matt is with his Maker writing articles about the intrigues of who is in and who is out in the politics of the higher chamber.

“Natalie and I wish to pass on our sympathies and offer our prayers to Matt, his family and colleagues.
