Now What?
Jon Kudelka
Anthony Albanese was opposition leader for three years before becoming Prime Minister at the 2022 federal election. During that time he criticised the Coalition government for its hard-nosed social policies and for its lack of action on climate change. In a cartoon created just before Labor’s first anniversary in government, Jon Kudelka suggests that Albanese does not know what to do with the reins of power now that he has them.
