CANBERRA, Jan 24 (NNN-AGENCIES) – Leader of Australia’s opposition Labour Party, Anthony Albanese, said today that, he is preparing for a federal election, promising to release his signature economic policies, well in advance of votes being cast.
He told Sky News that, the economic policies of the two major parties would be the major issue in the election, promising that a Labour government would prioritise boosting productivity and better outcomes for workers.
He said, there would be revenue policies and expenditure policies before the election.
The Labour Party has not governed in Australia since 2013.
The party was defeated by the Liberal National Party coalition, in the 2019 federal election, despite opinion polls projecting a comfortable victory.
According to the latest polls, the coalition holds a narrow lead over Labour, with Prime Minister, Scott Morrison, enjoying record-high approval ratings, for his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.– NNN-AGENCIES
