Sussan Ley becomes first female leader of the Federal Liberal Party after ballot

Sussan Ley has made history to become the first female leader of the Federal Liberal Party after a ballot of MPs in Canberra on Tuesday morning.

Ms Ley defeated Angus Taylor in the contest to be Opposition leader, taking the place of Peter Dutton after he lost his seat of Dickson at the May 3 election.

Ms Ley had been the party’s deputy leader for the past three years.

Going in to the party room meeting, the Liberals were anticipating a tight contest but sources said Ms Ley had the edge.

They were cautious that a tight result might not be the best outcome for the party, which was already destabilised by a devastating election loss.

The numbers in the party room will also shift in July when senators Linda Reynolds, Hollie Hughes and David Fawcett depart.
