Liberal party executive agrees to permanently bury review into catastrophic 2025 election defeat

The Liberal party executive has decided to permanently shelve a review of their devastating 2025 election loss, the party's worst result in over 80 years. The review, conducted by Pru Goward and Nick Minchin, will not be released, effectively burying any potentially damaging findings. The decision was made during a Liberal federal executive meeting on Friday. While the party leadership states the focus is now on strengthening the party for the future, some MPs are concerned that this move will prevent them from learning crucial lessons from the defeat. The review could have shed light on the roles of former leader Peter Dutton and current leader Angus Taylor in the unsuccessful campaign.
