Sorry – just had to take a few moments to scream into the abyss there.

There was a question on the disendorsement of the Liberal candidate for Whitlam, which followed the Guardian’s Sarah Basford Canales excellent reporting on exactly who he was as a human.

Dutton says:

There were a number of issues not just those made public in relation to the candidate and we took a decision to replace the candidate, it’s the decision was taken. I wish him well and the only public commentary I have in relation to that.
