Anthony Albanese names Bill Shorten in his new look Labor team

Opposition leader Anthony Albanese unveiled the line-up following a week of factional tit-for-tat that saw former NSW premier Keneally parachuted to deputy Senate leader and Mr Chalmers replace Mr Bowen as shadow treasurer.


Mr Albanese was declared leader last week in a bloodless contest, avoiding a process that would have involved rank-and-file voters after rival contenders Tanya Plibersek, Mr Chalmers and Mr Bowen withdrew.


The new leader said he would embark on a “listening tour” with his new team to determine how they lost a federal election after commentators and opinion polls pegged them for victory.


Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s ministry, which included Australia’s first Aboriginal Minister for Indigenous Australians,  was sworn in on Wednesday.


More to come.
