Elected deputy leader February 13, 2026
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.
