Sussan Ley has announced she will resign from politics within weeks, bringing an end to her 25-year parliamentary career just minutes after losing the Liberal leadership to Angus Taylor.
The Member for Farrer confirmed she would step away from public life after Taylor defeated her in a party room vote 34 to 17.
