Future Perfect: Lessons And Questions From The 2025 Federal Election

The Australian federal election saw a stunning landslide victory for the Labor Party, landing the Albanese government a clear majority in its second term in parliament.

Dylan Bird is joined by Amy Remeikis, Chief Political Analysis at The Australia Institute, to unpack the election result and what it signals about Australian politics to come, what went wrong in the Coalition’s disastrous late campaign, why the Greens lost seats, and Labor’s responsibility to make stronger change in their second term.

“I’m not sure whether the Liberal Party will survive this, and frankly I also don’t care if the Liberal Party survives this … if that means that we start to see a new politics emerge from the wreckage of the absolute carnage that was the latest election campaign then so be it.”
