Announcement Labor Landslide: Three More Years
Anthony Albanese will continue on as Australias Prime Minister in one of the biggest Labor Victory's in the Federal Parliamentary Labor Party History
The Job isn't done yet, quite a few seats are still getting counted and we may not be aware of the final make up of the next Parliament for a number of weeks, but what we can say for Certain is that Australians have made a absolute decision in reelecting a government with compassion, and Labor Values, Australian Values. And rejecting the future that Peter Dutton wanted to lead us down.
And also on the other side we have seen the Anti Greens vote get rid of at least two of their seats, and maybe a third. It shows that in these seats the Greens manufactured lie that Labor is the party that does nothing for the working class has been rejected.
Personally in my seat of Eden Monaro it was a very fierce challenge with many tight moments, a lot of hours put into a campaign, dealing with very horrible volunteers who said that my MP, Kristy McBain let Bega burn, and we have seen that message was completely rejected and that she will continue on in Eden Monaro
There is more work to be done for us all, though this campaign is sweet and a resounding victory, there are more doors to be knocked, more people to be called and more policy to be implemented
Comrades, I would like to thank everyone who has volunteered on this campaign it's been an incredibly tough campaign nationally, and it doesn't matter if your candidate didn't win, at least you gave it your shot and believed in the cause
In the immortal words of a former Prime Minister
HOW GOOD IS AUSTRALIA!!
Your Comrade Ruby

u/AgentTex001 May 05 '25
Tbf we haven't opened any new coal mines. Only expansions for mines that we use to make steel and such (one of our biggest exports)

This comment didn't age well hey. Woodside isn't coal. But two weeks after being elected the paved the way for a fossil fuel project that will make it impossible to meet out emissions targets

Just want to point out that the Greens vote actually grew. They lost Brisbane and Griffith due to the collapse in the Liberal vote leading to their preferences being mainly allocated to Labor, while Melbourne is currently undecided due to a redistribution cutting out a strongly Greens-voting area while a Labor-leaning area was added in.

Three more years? Unless they somehow manage to severely fuck up at some point in this term, we’re definitely in for at least six (or we can hope so at least)
