Plibersek will not run. "Not my time."
Poison chalice syndrome?
In what respect?
LABOR didnt just lose aussie they LOST A LOT.... even those they won lost ground...
that means not matter what they PROMISED...... and boy they did they promise a lot...
the people more than rejected it...
even pliber says as much.....
heres what she said..
The Deputy Labor leader announced her decision today, saying she had support from across the party to be elected leader but "now is not my time".
"At this point, I cannot reconcile the important responsibilities I have to my family with the additional responsibilities of the Labor leadership," Ms Plibersek said.
"I know some people will be disappointed with this decision. I intend to continue as deputy leader until the leadership is determined."
Ms Plibersek said Saturday's election
was "a blow for Labor supporters" and that the party needed to "take a serious look" at its policies.But she backed Bill Shorten's efforts, saying: "Bill unified Labor and could not have worked harder to get us across the line."
The shock move came just a day after Mr Shorten endorsed her for the top job.
oh yes
poisoned chalice for sure.
