AAP
Tony Abbott has dismissed the latest development in an internal Liberal Party row over management of its finances as less than a storm in a teacup.
"It's actually a zephyr in a thimble," the prime minister told reporters in Canberra on Friday.
Mr Abbott was responding to reports the party's federal treasurer had assured donors they could now feel safe in giving generously while reiterating concerns about governance within the organisation.
