Labor's disastrous response to events in 2023 raises questions about bad luck and bad management. Prime Minister Albanese and his government seem to have squandered their political capital.
Labor 's disastrous response to a host of events in 2023 shows it wasn't just a case of bad luck that brought about the government's undoing, writes Nicolle Flint.
Similarly, is the Liberal Opposition under Leader Peter Dutton experiencing good luck thanks to Labor’s woes, or thanks to good policy decisions because he has the courage of his convictions?

Wages growth was stagnant. There was rising underemployment. In that 'never satisfied' way of politics and economics that sounds a little weird to 2023 ears, the inflation rate at the time of just 1.3 per cent was seen as a bad thing: a sign of the sluggishness of the economy, not just here but around the world.
