‘Nothing short of treachery’: Transport Minister slams colleague Matt Kean
The NSW Transport Minister has slammed his Treasurer over revelations he was undermining the Coalition’s election victory.
David Elliott has told Ben Fordham: “Matt Kean’s behaviour is nothing short of treachery and will be repaid in kind”.
“I’m disgusted.
“It’s the sort of thing I have come to expect… from a certain former Liberal PM.”
According to The Australian’s Sharri Markson, Matt Kean was encouraging journalists to ask tough questions to the Prime Minister about selecting Katherine Deves as the candidate for Warringah.
In one exchange, he urged a journalist to “pap” Roads Minister Natalie Ward to get her opinion on the topic.
Matt Kean denies he was briefing against his own Government.
Ben said, “I think Dominic Perrottet is going to have to act here”.
“People have had a gutful of Matt Kean.”
