THE Labor Party has won the 2025 Australian Federal Election in a landslide.

As of now, Labor has won 93 seats in the House of Representatives, the Liberal-National Coalition has won 40 seats, 12 seats have gone to minor parties and independents, while 5 remain in doubt.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has become the first Australian Prime Minister to win a second full term since John Howard in 2004.

The Leader of the Opposition, Peter Dutton of the Liberal Party, has lost his electorate to Ali France by 11,000 votes.

During the election, the Labor Party promised to allow first home buyers to buy houses with a 5% deposit, crack down on price gouging by supermarkets, and open more Medicare Urgent Care Clinics.

The Liberal Party promised to ban foreign investors from purchasing homes for 2 years, crack down on anti-competitive behaviour by supermarkets, cut foreign aid and invest in nuclear power.

The Greens promised to bring dental care into medicare, make university and TAFE free, tax billionaires and big corporations to fund public services, and break up the Woolworths and Coles supermarket duopoly.

In his victory speech, Anthony Albanese expressed gratitude to voters for their support.

“The first thing that I do tonight, is to say thank you to the people of Australia, for the chance to continue to serve the best nation on earth,” Mr Albanese said.

Peter Dutton conceded defeat and accepted responsibility for the Coalition’s performance.

“There are good members, good candidates who have lost their seats… and I’m sorry for that,” Mr Dutton said during his concession speech.

Political Commentator and Griffith University professor Paul Williams said the Liberal Party’s defeat in this election was because the policies they offered were unpalatable to the Australian electorate, Peter Dutton was unpopular as a party leader, and a chaotic campaign.

He added how the Coalition could win more seats in the next Federal Election.

“They could do that by pitching to the centre, the ideological centre, and not the right, as they have been,” he said in a recent interview.

This was the first election where Millenials and Gen Z voters outnumbered Baby Boomers and Gen X.
