Labor party wins Australian election - conservative Scott Morrison loses
-
Australia has a new Prime Minister after Scott Morrison conceded defeat to his rival, the Labour party leader Anthony Albanese. It's not yet clear if Mr Albanese has won decisively enough to form a majority government. The Green Party made gains, as did a group known as the Teal Independents who campaigned on climate change - a topic that the outgoing Prime Minister was notoriously sceptical about early in his leadership.
