Queensland’s Deputy Premier Steven Miles and Health Minister Shannon Fentiman have both confirmed their intention to run for the Labor leadership. They are both members of state Labor’s Left faction, which accounts for 25 of the party’s 52 MPs. However, the Right faction – which has 18 MPs – could potentially emerge as the ‘kingmaker’ in the leadership ballot. The Right faction’s Cameron Dick could also be a leadership contender, although he is regarded as more likely to become deputy premier. Meanwhile, outgoing premier Annastacia Palaszczuk has rejected suggestions that she resigned after losing the support of Left faction powerbroker and union leader Gary Bullock.
