Deputy PM Barnaby Joyce got a ticking off, publicly, from Prime Minister Turnbull yesterday
Today Joyce responded, saying the PM's comments were 'inept and damaging'
Which is probably a bit of projection given Barnaby got a staffer knocked up
But, ah well, now local media is alight with 'government in crisis' headlines. Political instability can lead to market instability. So far today the Australian dollar has been sleepy, its barely moving (a small range as I update) ... but government muddling is something to keep an eye on.
