Round two in the leadership spill is happening today.

Former Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton said he believes he has the numbers to enact a leadership spill in Canberra this morning.

Mr Dutton attempted a spill on Tuesday but was unsuccessful. He needs 43 party room votes to overthrow Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull.

No Prime Minister has survived a second leadership challenge in 40 years.

More to come.
