Bishop should not be noted as a Morrison minister
Julie Bishop being a minister under Morrison is only in the technical sense.

When there is a change of prime minister with the same party in power, the new prime minister in the immediate period decide which ministers to keep and which ministers are to go. Also an opportunity for the ministers themselves if they like to stay or to decide to stand down on their own volition. For Bishop she took that time to decide that she didn't want to continue as a minister. Not every minister is able to decide instantaneously to quit when there is a new prime minister as in the case when Kevin Rudd made his comeback in 2013 and the new prime minister has to settle in the job before deciding who he or she wants in his or her ministry. Bishop should not be noted as a Morrison minister as she wasn't one in a real sense and she certainly isn't listed in the Morrison Ministry.49.3.72.79 (talk) 08:53, 12 September 2020 (UTC)
