Inflation about to swamp Labor

you think is going to be, as you say 'simple'(y) deposed and replaced with someone else

In 2018, the Australian Labor Party (ALP) introduced significant rule changes to make it more difficult to depose a sitting prime minister who has won the last election. These changes were aimed at ensuring greater stability and continuity in leadership. The key aspects of the rule changes are as follows:
1. **Leadership Spill Requirements**: A leadership spill can only be initiated if 75% of the members of the parliamentary Labor Party (Caucus) support the motion. This high threshold is intended to prevent frequent and destabilizing leadership challenges.
2. **Post-Election Protection**: For a sitting prime minister who has led the party to an election victory, the threshold for initiating a leadership spill is even higher, requiring the support of 60% of the Caucus. This rule provides additional protection to a prime minister who has recently secured an electoral mandate.
These changes were implemented to address the instability caused by frequent leadership changes within the party, which had been a significant issue in Australian politics in the preceding years[2].
