00:01An ominous rallying cry.
00:04Change or there will be no Liberal Party.
00:08I choose change.
00:10NSW Liberals have gathered for their state conference,
00:13their first address from a new leader,
00:16laying out his policy priorities.
00:18Under a coalition government,
00:20the door will be shut to people who don't subscribe
00:23to our core beliefs.
00:25The Liberals are mulling their next immigration policy,
00:29which could block entry to those the party says bring hate to Australia.
00:34Islamist extremism is a threat to our way of life.

00:41but Liberals are clear on why.
00:43Anger after the Bondi terror attack,

00:54I am determined.
00:56And I have a clarity I did not have before.
01:00And I want our country back.
01:05The leaders' calls have gone down well in a room full of party faithful,
01:09but whether the message is received by voters remains to be seen.
01:13And the first test of that is a by-election in the former leader Susan Lee's seat in nine weeks.
01:19It's such a pleasure to meet you.
01:21One Nation is hot on the Liberals' heels in Farrah,
01:24chasing disenfranchised voters.
01:27I've voted the Liberal Party for 50 years.
01:30There's a big question mark on that now.
01:32Pauline Hanson campaigning in person to announce her candidate David Farley.
