Are the Liberals in a civil war?

Tensions are threatening to boil over in the Liberal party in the wake of Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price’s comments about Indian migration.

The NT Senator has now accused her colleague and factional powerbroker Alex Hawke of  “cowardly and inappropriate” behaviour and threatening remarks over the matter. While Alex Hawke has taken to the media to hit back, calling on the Senator to apologise for her damaging remarks.

Patricia Karvelas and Jacob Greber break it all down on Politics Now.
