I believe Kelly will be contested for the per-selection of his seat, that is to happen after next weeks by-election. He is threatening to sit on the cross bench if not pre-selected.
Could be interesting times ahead with rumors Abbott may not be pre-selected, between him and Kelly they could cause a lot of trouble in the house of Reps.
Makes me think is the libs not pre-select Kelly and Abbott for there seats they would call an election soon after to starve off any attacks
