Episode description

Prime Minister Scott Morrison won the “miracle” election back in 2019.  No one expected him to win, but he was a master campaigner, convincing what he called “the quiet Australians” to trust him.

 

Annika Smethurst from the Age newspaper and the Briefing is author of a biography on Scott Morrison – The Accidental Prime Minister.  Annika tells us Scott Morrison will need to pull off a major coup to repeat his success from 2019, with poll numbers pointing to a heavy defeat.

 

So, can Scott Morrison pull off another miracle election win….? Or will we see Anthony Albanese in The Lodge?
