The current prime minister has already admitted his defeat. “Tonight I spoke with the leader of the opposition and future Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and congratulated him on his election victory,” Morrison said.

Morrison’s criticism
There has been a lot of criticism of the prime minister lately. Under his leadership, the country has opted for strict lockdowns to curb the spread of the coronavirus, which has left residents in cities like Melbourne and Sydney locked up for weeks.
This led to many demonstrations. His approach to the climate and the way his government responded to floods this year have also received criticism.
