Albanese Secures Second Term as Labor Wins Australian Election

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese led the Labor Party to a decisive victory in Saturday’s federal election, securing a second term as the opposition Liberal/National Coalition suffered historic losses, The Guardian reported.

Albanese, 62, framed the win as a rejection of Trump-inspired politics, emphasizing “Australian values” in his victory speech.

Opposition leader Peter Dutton lost his seat after a campaign marred by comparisons to Donald Trump, including his party’s adoption of rhetoric like “Make Australia Great Again.”

It should be mentioned that Australia is home to a significant Muslim population. According to the 2021 Census, over 800,000 people identified as Muslim.
