Laura Tingle, Black Inc. What has gone wrong with political leadership in Australia? And are things likely to change with a change of leader or government? What is true political leadership, and how do we get it? What qualities should we wish for in our leaders? And why is it killing season for prime ministers? In this wise and timely essay, Laura Tingle argues that democratic leaders build a consensus for change, rather than bludgeon the system or turn politics into a popularity contest.

'The Liberal Party has been ripped apart and our polity is the worse off for having one of its major political parties rendered largely ungovernable . . . Malcolm Turnbull's fate came down to a series of judgements made not just by him, but by his colleagues, who spent much of his prime ministership failing to follow the leader and also failing in their own collective responsibility for leadership.'
