Episode description
The Liberal Party is holding a leadership spill with Angus Taylor challenging current leader Sussan Ley at a 9am party room meeting. Multiple frontbenchers including James Patterson, Michaelia Cash and Queensland moderate James McGrath have resigned, signalling growing support for Taylor. Ley's nine-month leadership has been marked by coalition splits over net zero and hate speech laws, plus Barnaby Joyce's defection to One Nation.
