Country Liberal Party leadership spill, 2015 : ウィキペディア英語版 | Country Liberal Party leadership spill, 2015
A leadership spill of the Country Liberal Party in the Northern Territory occurred over 2 and 3 February, 2015. Willem Westra van Holthe announced in a late night press conference that a leadership spill had occurred and that his party had selected him to replace incumbent leader and Chief Minister of the Northern Territory Adam Giles. ''ABC News'' reported that the vote was nine to four in Westra van Holthe's favour, though this was disputed by some CLP members.〔 Giles refused to resign, and the Administrator of the Northern Territory, John Hardy, declined to sack Giles, citing perceived irregularities in the spill process and doubt over whether Westra van Holthe would be able to maintain the confidence of the Northern Territory Legislative Assembly. The challengers only had nine supporters, lacking the 13 required install a new chief minister in a vote by members of the Assembly. ==Background== Adam Giles became Chief Minister of the Northern Territory in March 2013, replacing long-term Country Liberal leader Terry Mills in a party-room coup while Mills was attending a trade mission in Japan, becoming the first Indigenous head of government in modern Australian history. Initially he was popular with the electorate, however a series of scandals and problems shook his authority, including the defection of MPs Alison Anderson and Larisa Lee, and the resignation under a cloud of Northern Territory police commissioner John McRoberts. Giles’ style was frequently compared to that of Queensland Premier Campbell Newman, which became a liability when Newman lost his seat in the 2015 state election.
