"Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has hit back at speculation of an early election, declaring the government’s “immediate task is to get the job done and to get inflation down” before worrying about the next time Aussies head to the ballot box.

The PM’s comments come after last week's handing down of the federal budget, which drew wide ranging conjecture of Labor sending voters to the polls before the next May budget, instead of the slated time of September 2025.

Sky News Australia Political Editor Andrew Clennell argued the handing down of a surplus, tax cuts, a $300 electricity rebate, and an optimistic inflation forecast looked like a “pre-election budget,” while The Herald Sun’s Susie O’Brien and Headline Advisory’s Andrew Carswell backed speculation of an early election.

Speaking out on the political postulation, Mr Albanese said Labor’s focus was not on a speedy rush to the ballot box."

Yep, his word is his bond.
