Scott Morrison said, “In this country, at a time like this, when we look around the world, and particularly when we see those in the Ukraine fighting for their very freedom and liberty, I think on a night like tonight we can reflect on the greatness of our democracy. I congratulate Anthony Albanese and the Labor Party and I wish him and his government all the very best.”
He addressed his supporters and thanked them for their belief in him and his party. He also told them that he had talked to Anthony Albanese and congratulated him on his election victory.
