Former prime ministers Tony Abbott and Malcolm Turnbull are among the Liberal Party identities who have praised Gladys Berejiklian following her resignation as premier of New South Wales. Berejiklian is the state’s third premier to be forced to resign by the Independent Commission Against Corruption, after it announced that she would be investigated over a ‘breach of public trust’. Berejiklian’s relationship with disgraced former Liberal MP Daryl Maguire will come under scrutiny by ICAC. Berejiklian has criticised the timing of the investigation, given the COVID-19 pandemic, but says she had no choice but to resign. She will also exit state politics after 19 years in parliament.
