Betrayal: Liberals Bury Review Into Election Disaster
The Liberal Party chose to suppress the 2025 election review due to political concerns and internal disputes, with the report completed by party elders last year.
- On Friday, the party's Federal Executive decided not to publish the 2025 election review after Opposition Leader Angus Taylor met top party figures in Sydney.
- One source said the report would be politically damaging before the South Australia state election and the Farrer by‑election in Sussan Ley's seat, and former opposition leader Peter Dutton raised concerns earlier this year, delaying publication.
- Nearly 100 interviews and hundreds of submissions informed the review, which was compiled over months by Pru Goward and Nick Minchin last year.
- The Liberal Party said on Friday the Federal Executive will focus on rebuilding and quickly implementing recommendations, while co-author Nick Minchin warned, `They will be horrified by the decision to bury the review into a shocking election result`.
- Some authors note recommendations by Pru Goward and Nick Minchin have already been adopted, and the review's recommendations were sound despite florid language, yet the party decided not to publish them, raising questions for Angus Taylor.
