Australia's National Party split from the Liberal Party, its conservative coalition partner of over 60 years, citing key policy differences after a resounding loss at a national election this month.
Nationals leader David Littleproud said it was “time to have a break” while Liberal leader Sussan Ley expressed disappointment. “We will not be re-entering a coalition agreement with the Liberal Party after this election,” Mr Littleproud said, citing policy differences.
