About the episode
Angus Taylor has been elected leader of the Liberal Party with a decisive 34-17 victory, replacing Sussan Ley after just nine months in the role. Victorian Senator Jane Hume will serve as deputy leader, marking an unusual break from tradition as she will be based in the Senate rather than the House of Representatives. Taylor, a Rhodes Scholar and former Energy Minister under Scott Morrison, faces the challenge of rebuilding the Liberal Party as it loses support to the Teals on the left and One Nation on the right.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
