Dumped Queensland MP Bruce Flegg has hit out at "faceless people" within the LNP, saying the party hierarchy has lost confidence in Premier Campbell Newman retaining his seat at next year's state election.
The LNP state executive today blocked Dr Flegg from standing again for the party in the seat of Moggill at next year's election.
He has told 7.30 Queensland that ousting him was part of the party's succession planning should Mr Newman fail to hold his Brisbane seat of Ashgrove.
"This is about the factional battle for who leads the LNP after Campbell Newman is gone, whether or not that is before or after the election," he said.
