Text reads, 'Back from the bush summit.' Treasurer Jim Chalmers asks, 'How was the North?' Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says, 'Hostile,' as a crocodile labelled 'NT Elections' bites him on the behind.

The Northern Territory went to the polls in August and voted in a new Country Liberal Party government with 17 seats - a gain of 10 seats. Labor retained four seats, but lost 10, mainly First Nations representatives from remote regions.

The new government includes four politicians of South Asian and South-East Asian heritage, the highest number ever.
