Making sense of the 2026 election

1h 05m

The morning after the night before, Annabelle Lee-Mather, Ben Thomas and Toby Manhire gather to chew through the key numbers, the surprises, the scenarios that could now play out and the big questions that come next. We assess the performance of all the main parties, and the impact of overhangs, enrolment changes and turnout. Plus: we exclusively reveal what we got up to last night.
