In a shock move, Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price has defected from the Nationals, to sit in the Liberal party room. Speculation is whirring she will run as Deputy Liberal leader, on a ticket with Angus Taylor — it comes as Sussan Ley confirms she'll throw her hat in the leadership ring, while Dan Tehan rules himself out.

Voters have handed Anthony Albanese and Labor a ringing endorsement. But the Coalition has suffered what Fran Kelly has labelled a "shellacking" -  with Peter Dutton even booted from his own seat of Dickson. So, with their numbers decimated, who will put their hand up for Liberal leader? And brought to the brink, could John Howard's "broad-church" be forced to split?
