Labor is in front. Good result.

I think we can partly thank the clusterfuck that is the Trump administration for this as well.

Thanks Trump for hurting Conservatives in two countries in a row now.

America's stupidity is becoming the best thing for centre/centre-left governments.

Absolutely... When you have the most powerful nation on Earth elect a conservative leader who in turn has gone on to screw over their closes allies who have assisted the USA in terms of resources, military, information, trade and more for over a century...

The world starts to feel betrayed and then we see these pivots to progressive ideas.

Also helps that our conservative leader (Dutton) was basically a "Temu Trump" who looks like Lord Voldermort. - Who then had to change their approach when Trump's popularity took a nosedive.
