Murray Olds: Australian correspondent on Australia's opposition coalition splitting up after election loss - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

Australian's opposition has split - officially ending the Liberal-National coalition.

National leader David Littleproud has confirmed his party will stand apart from Sussan Ley's Liberals, but he's leaving the door open. 

The coalition had an election thrashing this month.

Leader Peter Dutton lost his seat and Labor Prime Minister Anthony Albanese scored a second term. 

Australian correspondent Murray Olds unpacks what this means for both parties going forward.
