Queensland LNP MP Jann Stuckey has announced her resignation after 16 years of service.

Lawyer Laura Gerber was selected by the LNP state executive to replace long-serving MP Jann Stuckey, who quit due to health issues.

Alan Jones calls this is a “political bombshell” after the MP was “bullied” and subjected to personal attacks.

Ms Stuckey tells Alan that the party struggles with communication.

“The vilification was a cone of silence type.

“Not one of them had the guts to actually speak to me about why I made that decision.

“I thought I was too strong to get depression, I thought ‘you’ve got to take it’.”
