Liberal senator Linda Reynolds has blasted her own party, saying she is "deeply saddened and distressed" by this week's events and does not condone what has occurred.

"I do not recognise my party at the moment. I do not recognise the values. I do not recognise the bullying and intimidation that has gone on," Reynolds said in a speech to the Senate a short while ago.

"And I hope – I hope – that whatever happens tomorrow after midday that we can find a way to get back together again, because it is not just the leader, the Prime Minister, it is all of us in our team who has been such a successful government. We have delivered for this country. And up until now, we have been a united and a very effective party. So, I would just conclude, Mr Acting Deputy President, whatever happens tomorrow, this is a sad day for my party and for our nation."
