When the history books are written they will focus a great deal on Rudd’s insisting on big changes to leadership challenge rules as a condition of his return as PM. Those new rules are the main cause of the leadership stability we now “enjoy”. (The Coalition adopted similar rules soon after, which is why all that utterly tedious leadership soapie BS of a decade ago is behind us now.)

If for nothing else, we should be thankful to Kevin Rudd for that.
