Two federal ministers expected to retire at next election | Sky News Australia

The decision comes after a swathe of prominent Coalition MPs, including former foreign minister Julie Bishop, resigned ahead of the next election.

Scott Morrison was asked in Townsville on Friday if he had spoken to the frontbench pair about their impending decisions. He did not deny Defence Minister Mr Pyne or Defence Industry Minister Mr Ciobo could be about to quit.

Good riddance! Especially to Christopher Pyne who is a snake.

😡Damn, only two😡. But two ......

Well all new MPs we might as well have a totally new government as they will all have their training wheels on ... I may not agree with their politics but experience does have an advantage

Do they want some more suggestions?
