Well, That Was Quick: Turnbull Won The Leadership Spill

Remember how mere minutes ago we told you that Malcolm Turnbull was facing a Thunderdome-style showdown with Peter Dutton over who would lead the Liberal Party, and therefore the nation?

Well, Turnbull won it. Yes, they did it pretty briskly.

Turnbull ended up winning 48 votes to 35. A fairly clear win, but still enough to make Turnbull sweat. My take? We might see another one of these before the next election, and his victory won’t be so assured that time. That’s just one man’s take though.

We’ll keep you updated on all the fallout from Dutton’s failed coup.
