Barnaby Joyce faces death threats on his campaign trail
Barnaby Joyce replies to allegations of hiding from public - Northern Daily Leader
We don’t take it as a joke. If they’ve got a bullet, they’ve probably got a fire-arm to use it. We've been to the police but it’s not going to change the way I do things.
Barnaby Joyce
The Nationals candidate for the New England by-election, Barnaby Joyce, met party workers in Glen Innes and told them he thought they were “going to get a handy sort of result”.
He faced some barracking from a few people outside the newly rented Nationals’ office on Grey Street as he addressed about thirty people inside.
His visit to Glen Innes was only announced to local media a few hours before and no crowds of either supporters or opponents greeted him.
He’s had death threats and a bullet sent to his office but said it wouldn’t change the way he worked (in the video, it’s his first answer).
Is he shunning big public events? “I’ve done a number of forums. I’m here. I’m walking up and down the halls. I’m making sure I’m publicly available.

We're seeing journalists coming out today asking why people who knew about Don have kept quiet#AusPolhttps://t.co/wwIdDpb6BM
