Jacinta Allan faces leadership challenge before election

Victorian Premier Jacinta Allan faces potential removal as leader before the November state election, with key figures from her socialist left faction reportedly holding secret discussions about a leadership change. The speculation follows internal polling predicting Labor could lose up to 20 seats, combined with dire polling showing Allan is now the most unpopular leader in the country. If a switch occurs, it would be Victoria Labor's first leadership change this close to an election since John Brumby was replaced by Steve Bracks seven months before Bracks defeated Jeff Kennett.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
