Australia's Liberal Party suffered a crushing defeat in Saturday's federal election, their worst ever result. Leader Peter Dutton lost his seat, marking the first time an opposition leader has lost their seat and the election simultaneously. Labor's landslide victory, attributed by Prime Minister Albanese to a desire for unity, has left the Liberal Party searching for a new leader and conducting a review of their campaign strategy. Significant losses were concentrated in major Australian cities.
