Barnaby Joyce cops tirade from minister Ian Hunter
EXCLUSIVE: BARNABY Joyce and a table of ministers have been told to “f..k off” and a female minister has been called a “c..t” during a meltdown by a veteran MP.
The extraordinary tirade from South Australia’s Water Minister Ian Hunter, was directed towards Victorian Water Minister Lisa Neville and Mr Joyce occurred during a dinner meeting in Adelaide of the Murray Darling Basin ministerial council.
The minister’s angry tirade then continued outside, with Mr Hunter telling department staff to also “f**k off” before demanding his staff also leave the meeting.

Mr Hunter and his team were later spotted outside eating ice-creams.
Multiple sources told The Weekly Times that Mr Hunter, Mr Joyce, Assistant Water Minister Anne Ruston, Ms Neville, and the ACT’s representative were meeting over dinner to discuss the basin plan when Mr Hunter unleashed the tirade.
He called Ms Neville — a fellow Labor minister he today accused of not supporting SA on the plan — a “c..t” before telling all ministers present to “f..k off”.
