Opposition Leader Bill Shorten has launched an extraordinary attack on the Liberal Party, claiming it is 'riddled with right-wing extremists'.
Speaking to reporters in Adelaide on Wednesday, Mr Shorten lashed out towards the Coalition, and rumoured relationships with known right-wing extremists and preference deals with far-right parties.
'The Liberal Party is making, and the National Party are making preference arrangements with right-wing extremists, like the One Nation Party,' he said.
He referenced Andrew Hastie's recent denial that he and fellow Liberal MP Ian Goodenough had met with self-confessed neo-Nazi Neil Erikson.
Erikson had earlier claimed he had met with Mr Hastie and Mr Goodenough multiple times and that the politicians had allegedly 'paid him to be a right wing activist'.
