Australian Greens leader Adam Bandt lost his parliamentary seat Thursday, as final counting from the recent general election concluded and voters showed the arch left-wing politician the door.
His party fared no better as the Greens have secured no seats so far, though one is still considered too close to call.
They had four seats in the previous parliament.
Bandt, 53, said he had called his Labor Party rival for the seat, Sarah Witty, to congratulate her and “wish her all the best”.
Leftist Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s Labor Party won re-election in a landslide Saturday, with partial results putting it on course for at least 92 seats in the 150-member House of Representatives, as Breitbart News reported.
