When former state LNP cabinet minister Mark McArdle and Queensland senator Paul Scarr hand down their highly anticipated review into the LNP's loss at the 2020 election in April next year, they must cast aside any factional allegiances or loyalties and bell the cat on a political party that is deeply divided and has lost its way. If they don't, the LNP will lose the 2024 election. This post-mortem must be brutal, honest and go for the jugular. McArdle and Scarr owe it to the members and senior business leaders who backed the LNP at the last election to provide a transparent and warts-and-all analysis.
