Sky News takes a deep dive into the 2015 Liberal leadership spill
Sky News has taken a deep dive into the 2015 Liberal leadership spill, which saw Malcolm Turnbull win a party room ballot against the then-prime minister Tony Abbott. Mr Abbott received 44 votes while Mr Turnbull took 54. Mr Turnbull seized his opportunity in September 2015 as Mr Abbott was sinking in the polls after losing 30 consecutive Newspolls. “Everyone knew that Malcolm was ambitious, that he wanted to be prime minister,” former home affairs minister Karen Andrews told Sky News host Chris Kenny. “Of course, he was going to be looking at what the opportunities were for him to again put himself forward.”
