The LNP has lost a significant number of seats across Australia while the Nationals are on track to retain all of theirs which raises the question; who should take the blame for the devastating loss from the Coalition?

Nationals Leader David Littleproud told Peter Fegan and Gary Hardgrave on 4BC, "Sorry Gary, but you've never gone anywhere within leadership to understand how the two parties operate."

"So you wouldn't know how we operate between those."

"We don't share our intricate polling on each poll with the Liberal Party, nor does Peter do that with me, but there's a degree of trust."

"That's how our two parties operate and to try and implicate that through the LNP in Queensland, it is a state division," Mr Littleproud said.
