The government itself won’t change tomorrow whatever happens - it will simply mean the current Deputy Prime Minister becomes Prime Minister.

It’s the Labor party (who hold government) electing their own leader - and consequently the Prime Minister.

I can’t even guess at the odds. Because it’s an internal party matter, it’s hard for those outside to make a judgement.

Thanks for the clarification. I only had time to skim the first bit of the article. Is this a manoeuver intended to save Labour’s miserable backside?

Is this the kind of thing that could cause the opposition parties to demand a general election...citing "instability"..."lack of confidence",etc?
