Berejiklian warns Nationals against further public posturing over koala protection policy

NSW premier implores John Barilaro to stick to agreement after he refused to rule out further threats to dismantle the Coalition

The New South Wales premier, Gladys Berejiklian, has made it clear she will not tolerate any further public posturing by the Nationals over koala habitat protections or new threats by the junior partner to leave the Coalition.

Berejiklian on Thursday also implored her Liberal colleagues to move on and refocus on their jobs following last week's near split in the government, brought on by the Nationals leader, John Barilaro, threatening to move to the crossbenches with his MPs.
