A top lawmaker from Australia’s far-right One Nation party has grabbed headlines after exploding at a misbehaving dog as he was grilled on live TV.
Former deputy prime minister Barnaby Joyce was being interviewed on national broadcaster ABC on Monday night when he interrupted the one-on-one to shriek: “Sit down!”
“Sorry, it’s the dog,” he told the journalist.
The errant pooch then interrupted the proceedings again, with Joyce saying: “I do apologise for this dog, it’s just started to bail up.”
“Don’t worry about the dog, just answer the question,” replied journalist Sarah Ferguson, who was grilling Joyce on his party leader Pauline Hanson’s recent meeting with far-right British figurehead Tommy Robinson.
