Nationals leader Barnaby Joyce has reaffirmed his support for Malcolm Turnbull, saying the Australian public doesn't want a revolving door of prime ministers.
"I absolutely believe the best person to lead this nation is Malcolm Turnbull," the deputy prime minister told supporters in Tamworth on Saturday, after declaring victory in his seat of New England.
Mr Joyce is also looking forward to renegotiating the coalition agreement "quietly and astutely".
