so scott morrison australia's new prime minister any surprises there peter. well what this constitutes is that nothing nothing has been settled within the liberal party this began this instability and this challenge to the prominent they are going for the former prime minister is not going to move again as an uprising by the conservative faction of the party to remove turnbull who was considered to be a moderate not a genuine part of the party and had to be expelled but in his place the liberal party has now elected by a reasonably now imagine. a man who is not considered to be part of the conservative core is a man who has been threatened with dire repercussions from the conservative faction and his followers who collected him have also been confronted with dire. threats of a tradition from the conservative group which as we saw today had forty. out of eighty five sides so not a majority but enough to continue the eternal insurrection that has plagued this government brought down this prime minister stabilize the national government has made the public unset

we start with breaking news from australia: scott morrison will be the country's new prime minister afterlm turnbull was forced out by party rivals. mr turnbull had been under pressure and then suffered a revolt by mps. mr morrison, the current treasurer, won an internal ballot 45—40 over former home affairs minister peter dutton. let's get the very latest from sydney and our correspondent, phil mercer. it has been a dramatic week, phil. just tell us more about scott morrison, the new prime minister. well, once upon a time, scott morrison was an immigration minister, more recently he has held the very important treasurer portfolio in the centre—right government of the outgoing prime minister malcolm turnbull. scott morrison has been a keen and loyal supporter of the outgoing pm, so what we expect is this victory of scott morrison will be seen as a victory for the more moderate part of the centre—right coalition, given that his challenger, peter dutton, was the candidate that the conservatives wanted to challenge for the leadership. sorry to interrupt you. we want to come back to you in a

compared to malcolm turnbull scott morrison would be considered more conservative but throughout this leadership crisis morrison had been standing behind malcolm turnbull his treasurer and he had previously that mars and that is served as immigration minister and you could see that malcolm turnbull was pleased that if he was to lose his job that the person who would be stepping in would be scott morrison so i think those who were backing the challenge from peter dutton would be disappointed today and there really was a split within that party room meeting with forty five supporting scott morrison by the forty voting in favor of peter dutton a saudi led coalition air strike in yemen is a data province has killed at least twenty six civilians including women and children through the media says they were killed in a camp for internally displaced people the u.a.e. says rebels were launching missiles from the. the u.s. president says there would be an economic meltdown if he was removed from office trump was responding to speculation about his potential impeachment prosecution of two forme

scott morrison represents continuity here.of malcolm turnbull and so peter dutton‘s bid to swing the government to the right has clearly failed. i think that is an important distinction and what is interesting, actually, julie bishop, the deputy prime minister, the previous deputy prime minister, the previous deputy prime minister, the previous deputy prime minister was expected to do better than she did. that has caused quite a surprise. he did in his speech praised julie bishop a lot and talked about her loyalty and commitment to politics in australia. she has been a very popular leader. she has been a very popular leader. she is foreign minister but former deputy prime minister but she did not get thejob, deputy prime minister but she did not get the job, despite her efforts and many people would say she would be the most popular candidate for the general election, there is one coming up in the middle of next year and could come even earlier because of all this wrangling. it is unlikely we will get to the middle of next yea

have to say but it isn't a certain margin of us yeah it is a margin what can you tell us about scott morrison australia's new prime minister where does he want to take the country. well in many ways it's very similar to scott to a good turn what is greater sense that they they share the same sort of political thinking they're much the same on climate change and energy policy well the. morrison don't support dark immigration in australia and that's quite a political quite a controversial issue here but they're much the same sort of people in many ways there though they were close confidant an illustrator and you know term as prime minister and in many ways we might well have see the much the same as before and that will anger the right wing of the liberal party who've been trying to cost nothing to a lot of us because today it's ok what does this mean about the possibility of early elections or is that something that's out there at this hour. there's a very strong possibility merkel turnbull a signal his intention to resign as an m.p. it's only assume that will mean the government the ones sea

he's won the leadership race talk us through what happened and what we know about scott morrison. well this was quite a surprising result we've seen leadership challenges for the position of prime minister here in australia in the past but what usually happens is that there is a challenge from one person there's a meeting and a vote held and of the prime minister in the past has been toppled by the person who challenged him or her well in this case this started earlier in the week with another man peter dutton who had challenge malcolm turnbull for a leadership vote and in that case on tuesday lost but because of that vote in the margin was not strong enough for malcolm turnbull to really solidify his position what we started seeing was a number of malcolm turnbull's ministers resigning and it was quite clear that his leadership really still was in tatters so peter dutton came back saying this time he thought he did have the numbers if they went back for a leadership vote malcolm turnbull demanded that peter dutton present him with a petition showing that he had the support of the

as is scott morrison. scott morrison as immigration minister was a hardline minister.emake the australian economy. scott morrison will also be quite a polarizing figure. i think there will be a lot of soul-searching within both the liberal party and liberal party supporters and the wider electorate, making judgments about whether they think the now prime minister and what his vision will be for the country. haidi: the party room vote was 45-40. is that surprising the close? -- surprisingly cloes? -- close? will this let them get out of policy paralysis? they may be scrambled to find their feet over the next decade. rob: i can't say about the next decade. i think it is only three more prime ministers until christmas. a lot of turbulence coming through. i think the main thing to say is that this doesn't draw a line under it. malcolm turnbull won strongly earlier in the week against peter dutton. these divisions have not gone away, so there is no clear winner. morrison's scott ability will be to appease the different factions and convince them that they want to take on th

s the country's treasurer scott morrison has been chosen as his successor comes after a tumultuous few days in australian politics turnbull survived a vote on his leadership as recently as tuesday he's the fourth prime minister to be pushed out of office since twenty ten it was a ballot conducted in the party room for the leadership of the liberal party the successful candidate was scott morrison. and he won this fight by forty five votes to forty four peter dutton. welcome on this let's cross live to kathy novak in sydney kathy says scott morrison is now australia's new prime minister how much of a surprise was it that he won the leadership race somewhat more do we know about him . well on one hand it has become not on common to see changes of leadership and prime ministers losing their jobs after votes by their own party but on the other hand it was a surprise in so far as the treasurer scott morrison was not the man who initially challenge malcolm turnbull for the job of prime minister earlier in the week as you mentioned there had been another leadership vote and it was another one
