The Coalition is undergoing a reckoning in the wake of the federal election, which could sweep up to 20 seats away from the Liberal party.
The Liberals are set to elect a new leader, with Peter Dutton all but certain to be the next opposition leader.
While the party is undergoing an internal tussle over its post-election direction, the Nationals are also set to vote on a new leader as it undergoes a bitter public debate over its future and its support for net zero by 2050.
Today on Please Explain, national affairs editor James Massola joins Bianca Hall to discuss the fallout within the Coalition after Saturday's election.
