Australia's Government Vows to See Out Term After Voter Backlash

The transcript discusses the by-election in Wentworth, where independent candidate Kerryn Phelps won a significant victory, ending the Liberal Party's long-standing hold on the seat. This election was seen as a referendum on the recent party room coup that ousted Malcolm Turnbull.
