Scott Morrison became Australian's 30th prime minister last August when the Liberal Party voted him in as leader after a very public and acrimonious leadership spill.
The 50-year-old came into the job after the conservative wing of the party grew frustrated with Malcolm Turnbull's inability to pass his signature energy and tax-cut policies.
The resulting spill saw Mr Morrison beat Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton in a party room vote for leadership.
