He's back. Barnaby Joyce. 

It's been over three years since Barnaby Joyce lost his place as Deputy PM and National Party Leader, after it was revealed he was having a child with his staffer, Vikki Campion. 

The couple have since had another child, and the MP has been angling to get back at the top job of his party in backroom discussions for some time. 

How has he managed to come back? What is the appeal of Barnaby Joyce?
