Sussan Ley

Sussan Ley addressed Australia following her crushing leadership defeat earlier this morning to Angus Taylor- 34 votes to 17.

The fact that so many Coalition women are publicly backing Angus Taylor isn’t surprising in a political culture that has never given them reason to believe they could be anything more than lackeys to men.

Hearing a Liberal backbencher deploying the word “credible” to dismiss the (still current) woman leading the Liberal party was galling and familiar.

The Coalition has reunited, 17 days after Nationals leader David Littleproud declared the alliance was “untenable”.

PM Anthony Albanese and Opposition Ley Sussan Ley addressed the state of gender equality in Australia. They couldn’t ignore the violence.

Maria Kovacic has expressed outrage over a sexist online news article that was published with the headline ‘Why I wouldn’t marry Sussan Ley’.

The Coalition is untennable under Opposition leader Sussan Ley, say The Nationals in breaking up with the Liberals, again.

The names of those killed were read by Opposition Leader Sussan Ley who pleaded with Australia to ‘maintain the rage’.

This week, Sussan Ley managed to do what many thought impossible: revive Tony Abbott’s legendary “women of Australia will do the ironing” moment except this time, it was the grocery shopping.

Sussan Ley’s leadership began with promise. Six months on, and with net zero targets abandoned, that hope has evaporated.

The Liberals are set to dump net zero after a strong majority at a special party meeting spoke against the existing commitment to it.

Opposing universal ECEC shows how out of touch the Coalition is with modern Australia’s families, economy, and equality goals.
