Turnbull's chance to return the shine to his leadership
Malcolm Turnbull is a man under pressure.
James Massola is chief political reporter in the Canberra bureau. He was a Walkley finalist in 2015 and has worked in the federal press gallery for eight years, including stints for The Australian Financial Review and The Australian before joining the Sydney Morning Herald and The Age.
Malcolm Turnbull is a man under pressure.
