About this episode
Victorian Premier Jacinta Allan is facing a leadership spill, with Deputy Premier Ben Carroll confirming he will run for the Labor leadership.
It comes after a delegation of Labor MPs met with the Premier to urge her to resign, but it doesn't seem Jacinta Allan is willing to step aside without a fight.
Meanwhile, Anthony Albanese's control of Labor was on full display at the ALP national conference, Labor backbencher Ed Husic has warned the culture of debate isn't valued as it should be.
Patricia Karvelas and Jacob Greber break it all down on Politics Now.
Editor's Note: The Fitzgerald Inquiry was instigated by Queensland's police minister and deputy premier, Bill Gunn, in May 1987 — not then Queensland Premier Joh Bjelke-Petersen as was incorrectly stated in the podcast. It was established by Order in Council while Premier Joh Bjelke-Petersen was absent on a US trade mission. Initially expected to last about six weeks, the inquiry spent almost two years conducting a comprehensive investigation of long-term systemic political corruption and abuse of power in Queensland, changing the policing and political landscape in Queensland and across Australia.
