Deputy Labor Leader Richard Marles has come to the defence of Anthony Albanese who made a “literally harmless” mistake.

Prime Minister Scott Morrison and Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese have traded barbs over a national integrity commission after the issue emerged as a key election battleground.  

The major parties kicked off the election campaign focusing on two policy areas - the economy for the Coalition and health for Labor. But it was a gaffe by Anthony Albanese that dominated.

Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese has sought to clarify comments he made about offshore detention after Defence Minister Peter Dutton described them as a “remarkable departure” from Labor’s policy on borders.

Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese has broken one of his early campaign promises by walking out of a press conference after just eight minutes.

Labor leader Anthony Albanese’s campaign has again been derailed by another media-provoked error after breaking a key promise and shutting down his conference remarkably early.

Labor leader Anthony Albanese tried desperately to move the national conversation away from his gaffe on key economic figures on Tuesday, but he faced fierce backlash from both the Coalition and the media.

Labor leader Anthony Albanese has vowed to “accept responsibility” for his errors as he concedes his stumble around key economic figures was a mistake.

Prime Minister Scott Morrison has correctly answered the two questions which stumbled his opponent Anthony Albanese only hours into the first full day of the Federal Election campaign.
