Dear Sussan Ley and the Leadership of the Liberal Party,

Recent events within the Liberal Party have shaken the confidence of many Australians who look to the party as a beacon of strong, principled, and forward-thinking leadership. On September 10, 2025, you, as Opposition Leader, made the decision to remove Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price from the frontbench. This action, reportedly due to her refusal to express full confidence in your leadership and amid ongoing internal tensions, has highlighted deep divisions within the party and raised serious questions about its direction under your stewardship.

We, the undersigned Australians – voters, party supporters, and concerned citizens – are deeply disappointed and alarmed by this move. Jacinta Nampijinpa Price is not just a talented parliamentarian; she is a trailblazing Indigenous leader from the Northern Territory who has fearlessly championed conservative values, community safety, and practical solutions for everyday Australians. Her standout role in leading the successful "No" campaign during the 2023 Voice referendum demonstrated her ability to connect with diverse communities, articulate bold visions, and deliver results that resonate with the heartland of Liberal supporters. Former Prime Minister Tony Abbott himself described her sacking as a "big loss to the frontbench," underscoring the widespread recognition of her value to the party and the nation.

The decision to sack Jacinta Price appears to stem from a week of internal conflict, including her comments on migration policies that, while controversial, were intended to spark necessary debate on issues affecting Australian workers and communities. Instead of fostering unity and addressing these concerns head-on, your leadership has chosen division and exclusion. This has not only sidelined one of the party's most dynamic voices but has also damaged the Liberal Party's credibility among its base. Polls and public sentiment show that many Australians crave authentic, unapologetic leadership that prioritizes national interests over factional infighting. By removing Jacinta Price, you risk alienating the very supporters who propelled the Liberals through tough electoral battles.

It's time for change. We call on you, Sussan Ley, to step down as Leader of the Liberal Party immediately. Your tenure has been marked by instability, with this sacking being just the latest example of a leadership style that prioritizes personal loyalty over party unity and policy substance. In her place, we urge the Liberal Party to elevate Jacinta Nampijinpa Price to the leadership role. As a fresh, energetic leader with proven appeal across regional, Indigenous, and conservative demographics, she embodies the Liberal values of individual responsibility, economic freedom, and national pride. Under Jacinta Price's leadership, the party could rebuild trust, heal internal rifts, and position itself as a formidable alternative to the current government – focusing on real issues like cost-of-living pressures, border security, and community empowerment.

This petition is a clear demonstration of grassroots support for this leadership transition. Thousands of signatures from everyday Australians will show the Liberal Party room and federal executive that the people are watching and demanding better. We believe Jacinta Price can unite the party, inspire voters, and lead the Liberals to victory in future elections. Ignoring this call risks further erosion of support and a prolonged period of irrelevance.

We implore you: Listen to the voices of your supporters. Remove Sussan Ley as leader and install Jacinta Nampijinpa Price today. The future of the Liberal Party – and Australia – depends on bold, decisive action.

Sincerely,
The Australian voters, party supporters, and concerned citizens
