Victoria faces potential leadership spill as Allan resignation reshapes Labor
Victoria is heading toward a possible leadership spill within the state Labor party, according to The Guardian. The development follows the resignation of Premier Jacinta Allan, with Ben Carroll taking over as premier and announcing a royal commission during his first press conference.
The Guardian reports that Senator Pauline Hanson has derided the family law system, while the popular character Colin from Accounts has retired. The ABC has described the leadership contest as potentially creating a "nightmare scenario" for Victorian Labor.
The Age confirmed that Allan stepped down, and Carroll became premier, with Deeming quitting the Liberals. Deputy Premier Williams has called for a "reset," according to the Dandenong Star Journal. The Greek Herald noted that law firm Moray & Agnew celebrated its Melbourne office opening in the presence of the new premier.

The coming days will determine whether a formal leadership spill proceeds and how the Labor party navigates internal divisions.
