Voters will see through Windsor: Dutton

Cabinet minister Peter Dutton says voters in the seat of New England will see through Tony Windsor's second tilt at federal politics.

Cabinet minister Peter Dutton has unleashed an extraordinary personal attack on former independent MP Tony Windsor who is about to declare another tilt at federal politics.

Mr Dutton speculated that Mr Windsor was motivated by relevance-deprivation syndrome and loved the media attention.

"He's a self-funded retiree whose got millions of dollars out of the sale of his farm to a mining company and now pretends to be the champion of farmers," Mr Dutton told Radio 2GB on Thursday.
