James Paterson blames "Trump Effect" on failure

Caitlin Cassidy

Shadow Minister of Interior, James PatersonThe Trump effect is the "biggest factor" in the loss of the league, said.

Speaking on ABC 7.30 last night, MPs admitted that “a lot of things went wrong when you lose so badly”, but said Donald Trump's The presidency has a particularly "destructive effect" on the voting numbers.

We peaked on the day of the inauguration and then glided, especially after the Zelenskyy meeting and again quickly after the tariffs. But it is not about making us political responsibility there. We could have done more to get ourselves against that, and, in the months that happened on the campaign, something happened, and the campaign itself exaggerated the similarities between us and Donald Trump.

The facts make the politics of the Liberal Party at the center of rights very different from what happened to the Republican Party in the United States, but the government successfully tied us to them, which is devastating.

Anthony Albanese will hold a core meeting of new MPs in Canberra today after his party wins partisan victory.

The scale of success even surprised the senior labor minister, full of buoyancy among the members of the party.

Record women will sit in parliament, women in Labour's room with males exceeding males.

At least 46 seats in the Labor government will have a total of 150 seats in the House of Representatives.

As the count continues, Labour has increased its seat from 77 to at least 90 people, and more than a dozen new MPs will join the ranks.

Frank Bongiorno, a political historian at the Australian National University, said that Labour had never achieved such a victory since 1943.

"It's an extraordinary opportunity for the government to go beyond this semester," he said.

“Government doesn’t usually expand most of their people… Usually, you usually win your first election in a reasonable and comfortable way, and then you start burning political capital right away from the first semester and then often have to win in the second round.”

But hard work began after Anthony Albanese’s huge victory, so we’ve been working on his to-do list, including forming a new cabinet, reducing student debt, delivering to the Environmental Protection Agency and getting married.
