The Liberal party has been decimated in major cities – with just a handful of seats left in Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney – and must overhaul its appeal in urban areas despite a Coalition party room now dominated by regional Liberals and the Nationals.
The Liberals have also been wiped off the map in Adelaide and Tasmania and lost another seat in Perth. Across major cities, the party has failed to win back any seats from the teal independent MPs, who strongly appeal to moderate Liberal voters.
