Anthony Albanese is to be the new Australian Prime Minister. Labor are currently four seats short of an overall majority, but may yet gain that. Albanese is a progressive politician of mixed catholic heritage. He likes the Pixies, Midnight Oil, Hunters and Collectors, Joy Division and the Pogues. He’s taken principled stands on gay marriage, rejecting calls for a referendum (‘Australians should not judge each other’s families’). It was written into law by legislators instead. He will lead a Government committed to tackling climate change. He is pro-abortion and a republican. Scott Morrison is in the bin where he deserves to be. https://news.sky.com/story/australi...nservatives-according-to-projections-12618164
Immediate Labor commitment to the Uluru Statement from the Heart, which is a call for truth and reconciliation from the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, ‘First Nation’ people of Australia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uluru_Statement_from_the_Heart
