Labor has stormed to victory in the federal election and Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will lead a majority government following a disastrous night for the Coalition and Peter Dutton.

At 8.24pm, less than half an hour after the final polls closed in Western Australia, 9News projected Labor had won the election.

    Min wage going up a tiny bit is negated by the 30%+ inflation from the current governments term.

    What “affordable housing”? The one where not a single house was actually built?

      Bro you’re using the equivalent of fox news as a source while blaming a thing that effects a large part of the world on one person.

      I don’t know if you’re a bot, an idiot or just disingenuous but your argument is trash.

        A few things wrong here:

        1. I’m not blaming it on one person. I’m blaming the entire Labor government and their policies, along with the Greens and Teals who they make deals with to get things to pass.

        2. The article I gave reports on what happened in the senate estimates hearings. Direct quotes are in there. You can feel free to look up what they said in your news source of choice - I simply gave news.com.au because it is the biggest Australian news site and is an aggregator of news from all different sources, left and right wing. Here’s one reporting on the same thing but on a “socialist” left wing site: https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2025/03/12/kenh-m12.html Same quotes, same facts and figures.

        3. I don’t know if you’re a bot, an idiot or just disingenuous but your argument is trash.

        Rule 5 says hi.

        You need to better understand how to separate what is being reported from who is reporting it. When it’s direct quotes and verbatim responses with context provided, the site reporting it is basically irrelevant. A quick google of the information in the source I provided would show you that it is all factually correct and verifiable.

        As for your personal attacks, grow up. I presented facts and sources to back them up. You dismissed them because you don’t like what they said, even though what the article presents is factual.
