When the Coalition government of Australia was overthrown in 2022, it was tempting to portray the loss as merely a repudiation of Scott Morrison. And when opposition leader Peter Dutton torpedoed the referendum on establishing an Indigenous Voice to parliament, his credibility as a political leader improved at the expense of the prime minister's.
That was when, according to Niki Savva, the conservative Coalition thought it had the forthcoming election in the bag. What followed was a sequence of events that resulted in an improbable triumph for Labor and a historic drubbing for the Liberal Party.
By early May 2025, she could see signs of the earthquake to come – quoting Labor strategists' confidence that Dutton could be beaten in his own seat of Dickson.
In her highly popular columns, Niki Savva captured all this and more in her typically uncompromising, penetrating, and prescient way. Now, in addition, she provides a considered analysis of what went on behind the scenes, informed by her trademark access to important players and eyewitnesses, before an election that transformed Australian politics.
