It's not compulsory for starters. Australia wouldn't see this volatility but there isn't much doubt there were swings against each party that changed leaders mid cycle. Rudd/Gillard/Rudd, Abbott/Turnbull.Didn’t happen in Australia to either Labor or Libs with their leadership changes, no wipe out occurred.
Scomo won in 2019 too.

"I'm fed up with performance art politics. I've watched colleagues in the Conservative Party strike poses, write inflammatory op eds, and say stupid things they have no evidence for instead of concentrating on doing the job they were elected to do. I've had enough of it.
