Anthony Albanese may be the first federal leader of the Australian Labor Party to hail from the Socialist Left. However, his track record in New South Wales shows that he rose to his current position by collaborating with the party’s right wing to crush genuine ALP socialists.
Agreed, absolute bummer when he took over. Aesthetically he's also a huge pushover and a goofball. I can imagine many swing voters going for Morrison, despite him being the worst Aus PM in my living memory, simply because he takes things 'seriously' and says the word 'economy' over and over, as opposed to Albo who has a goofy chortle and barely seems interested in any many crises occurring atm.
