Retained leadership after February 2 challenge
Nine months after suffering Australia's worst opposition defeat in modern history, the Liberal Party has changed leaders for the second time. Angus Taylor defeated incumbent Sussan Ley 34-17 in a February 13 leadership spill, ending her 276-day tenure—the second shortest in party history. Ley, the party's first female leader, announced she would resign from parliament entirely, triggering a by-election in her rural New South Wales seat of Farrer.
