Peter Dutton is expected to be confirmed as the next Liberal Party leader on Monday. Picture: NCA NewsWire / Gary Ramage “We’re not the moderate conservative party, we’re not the conservative moderate party – we are the Liberal Party and that’s the approach that I want to take.” “I do want people to see the complete character that I am not just what they’ve seen through sound grabs when I’m talking about boats or all sorts of different issues,” he continued.
