Unless the government pulls up its political socks, Anthony Albanese could find himself spending a good deal of time in his spectacular new home, with its uninterrupted ocean views, sooner than he wishes.
This week’s Newspoll has the Coalition moving in front on a two-party basis for the first time, with Labor’s primary vote at 31%.
Albanese would hope for another full term as prime minister. But if Labor fell into minority government at next year’s election, there would likely be pressure before too long to replace him. He would not be seen as a good bet for the 2028 election.
