Kane Silom has joined the opposition leader's office from demoted Sarah Henderson.

The Albanese government's testy relationship with the think tank was on full display on Wednesday.

Both Sussan Ley and David Littleproud face dissent from within after this week's reunification of the Coalition and shadow ministry announcement.

Angus Taylor and Jane Hume both bore the brunt of criticism over the Coalition's economic policies after its election disaster. But only one of them has been dumped from the frontbench.

In an interview with Capital Brief, the successor to Adam Bandt said she will not rubber stamp Labor policies, but will support a progressive agenda.

In the new Senate, Labor will be able to pass its super tax tweaks with the support of the Greens — but they may demand changes.

Regardless of whether the Liberals and Nationals strike an agreement, 48 hours of public recriminations won't be forgotten lightly.

David Littleproud and Sussan Ley’s Albury meeting marked a turning point, as deep policy rifts led the Nationals to walk away from the Coalition agreement.

Labor’s super tax plan could hinge on how the Greens party recalibrates under new leader Larissa Waters.

The new Liberal leader is trying to finish the tricky task of finalising her frontbench while also keeping the Coalition together.

Sussan Ley’s historic elevation gives the Liberal Party a fresh face. But without a compelling economic agenda, her leadership risks being undermined by a deeper identity crisis.

Anthony Albanese promised order and discipline — but the ruthless factional purge of senior ministers Mark Dreyfus and Ed Husic reveals the brutal calculus of power inside Labor.

As Labor reshuffles, Jacinta Price’s defection to the Liberals has shaken some moderates, bolstering conservatives and shifting the battle for the party’s top job.

Scott Ryan, who served as a minister under Tony Abbott, warns the Liberal Party is being driven away from mainstream voters by hardline voices.

One Liberal moderate says returned MP Tim Wilson should play a senior role in the opposition, possibly as leader, after he reclaimed the seat of Goldstein from teal Zoe Daniel.

Facing an uncertain electoral future, the Liberal Party must choose between competing visions for its revival in the wake of Peter Dutton’s historic defeat.

The bloodletting following the Liberal Party's worst ever election defeat has begun, with four leadership candidates emerging and an offical gender target for MPs being discussed.

Peter Dutton's time in public life has come to a shuddering halt.

Today's vote is set to deliver a patchy result, with wild swings across the country despite little change in major party primary votes.

The preferences of One Nation voters will go a long way to deciding whether Anthony Albanese is in majority or minority government after the election.

While the cost of living has been the main focus of this campaign, debate today will turn to how to fix the budget as the Coalition promises to cut debt by $40 billion in its long-awaited costings.

Appearing in a seat that should have already been in the bag strengthens claims that Peter Dutton’s campaign is floundering.

Labor has now put out its costings and says Peter Dutton should do the same. It's just one more challenge for the opposition as it seeks to turn things around before election day.

While Peter Dutton managed to get under Anthony Albanese's skin during last night's debate, it also showed the opposition leader still has a long way to go to convince swinging voters.

Social media creators are playing a strong role in the election. They say Labor has been more proactive than the Coalition in trying to reach their audiences.

Both Anthony Albanese and Peter Dutton have made some dubious claims that have bordered on lying. The difference is Labor's ones are cutting through.
