WA premier Mark McGowan has been asked about suggestions Peter Dutton could become the next leader of the federal Liberal party. The Labor premier dismissed Dutton’s credentials, describing the former defence minister as an ‘extremist’ an ‘extremely conservative’ who ‘does not fit with modern Australia at all’. Dutton, who retained his seat of Dickson, could fill the void left by former prime minister Scott Morrison after he stepped down as party following the election defeat.
