Sussan Ley has served her electorate of Farrer for 25 years - making her one of the longest-serving female Parliamentarians, as well as the first female leader of the Liberal Party. Both of these are incredible achievements.
Taking the reins after the last election was always going to be difficult, and I commend Sussan on the guts and determination she has shown through all of this. Her time has opened a door for women in the Liberal Party that has long felt shut.
She also gave one of the funniest Midwinter Ball Speeches ever!
As she steps away from Parliament in the coming weeks, I want to extend my thanks to Sussan for her years of service and wish her and her family all the best.
