## Resource

The New South Wales regional seat of Farrer is now firmly One Nation territory, after David Farley claimed the party's first lower house seat in a landslide by-election win on Saturday. The Liberal candidate claimed just 12% of the primary vote - relinquishing a seat the Coalition has held since it was created in the 1940s. GUEST: Ted O'Brien, Shadow Minister for Foreign Affairs PRODUCER: Isadora Bogle
