Senator Barnaby Joyce, the Leader of the Nationals in the Senate, congratulates John-Paul Langbroek on his election as Leader of Queensland’s Liberal National Party (LNP) and Lawrence Springborg as Deputy Leader.
“Now, more than ever, there is immense concern about the financial predicament of Queensland under a Labor Government,” Senator Joyce said.
“This new leadership team has a duty to all Queenslanders to make sure that the State remains a financially viable ongoing operation.
“Under the Labor Government that position is under threat.”
