Anthony Albanese re-elected premier: historic breakthrough for Labor in Australia
Confirmed for a second term, he is the first to do so in 20 years. A political history marked by Italian roots and a reformist trajectory
Anthony Albanese has been reconfirmed as Prime Minister of Australia, leading the Labour Party to victory and winning an absolute majority. A historic political breakthrough: he is the first leader to win a second consecutive term in the last two decades. ‘Serving as your Prime Minister is the greatest honour of my life,’ he declared in front of the cheering crowd, celebrating a comeback in the polls that was unthinkable until recently.
Albanese, 60, describes himself as a reformist. In 2022 he ended almost a decade of Liberal governments, opening a new phase for Australia. His personal biography is also intertwined with Italy. Born in Sydney in 1963, he is the son of a summer fling between his mother Maryanne, a Catholic, and Carlo Albanese, an Italian seafarer he met on a ship bound for the UK. Growing up convinced that his father had died before his birth, he only discovered the truth as a teenager. After his mother’s death in 2002, he embarked on a long search that took him to Puglia, to Barletta, where he met his father before he passed away in 2014.
An economics graduate from Sydney University, Albanese joined the Labour Party at a young age. First elected to Parliament in 1996 at the age of 33, he held several government posts, including minister and, briefly, deputy prime minister. He has been party leader since 2019.
The victory was followed by a speech under the banner of optimism and responsibility. ‘At a time of global uncertainty, Australians have chosen determination and a Labor government,’ he said, receiving initial congratulatory messages from international leaders such as British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
With this confirmation, Albanese strengthens his position on the international scene and is preparing to lead a new phase of the Labour government, marked – as he has always stressed – by stability and reforms.
