In short:

  • Barnaby Joyce told protesters at a wind farm protest rally to use their ballot paper as bullets to "say goodbye" to the prime minister.

  • He apologised and conceded the metaphor wasn't appropriate when presented with footage of the rally on Monday morning.

What's next?

  • The prime minister has challenged Peter Dutton to sack Mr Joyce from the shadow cabinet.
