Robert Menzies - Served the longest term as prime minister, with 18 years and 5 months over two non-consecutive terms. He is considered one of the most successful and influential prime ministers in Australian history.12
John Howard - Served 11 years and 267 days as prime minister, making him the second longest-serving. He led the Liberal-National coalition government for 4 terms.12
Alfred Deakin - Served 3 non-consecutive terms as prime minister, demonstrating his political longevity and influence. He is regarded as one of the most important figures in the early development of the Australian Commonwealth.123
Andrew Fisher - Also served 3 non-consecutive terms as prime minister, showing his political prowess and ability to maintain power. He is known for introducing significant social reforms.123
Kevin Rudd - Served 2 non-consecutive terms as prime minister, demonstrating his ability to regain the leadership. He is credited with steering Australia through the global financial crisis.123
Julia Gillard - The first and only female prime minister of Australia so far, serving 1 term. Her time in office was marked by significant policy achievements despite political challenges.123
Tony Abbott, Malcolm Turnbull, Scott Morrison - Each served 1 term as prime minister, demonstrating their ability to attain the top political office but not sustaining long tenures.123
Anthony Albanese - The current and 31st prime minister, too early to assess his full level of achievement.123
The search results indicate that longevity, political influence, and policy achievements are key factors in assessing the relative achievements of Australian prime ministers.1 2 3å

I like that Morrison was included only because he lasted a full term.

but he also achieved a remarkable covid success in getting the states to do all the work of the federal Govt role of quarantine.

he also sustained the economy using the principles of Rudd's GFC plan. I wonder who advised him to do that. probably Frydenberg. he is much smarter than the average Lib pollie.

It's an odd list as it first says achievements but then only says duration in Govt. Achievements aren't relative to longevity in Govt.

Take Menzies for example...yes the longest serving PM, but also not really memorable as a trail blazer of reform and far sightedness. He rode off the sheeps back in those days, and also guilty for selling pig iron to Japan to enable their military build up before ww2. It was the Unions who ended that when they refused to load the ships. That era is nothing to be proud of due to it enabling a loss of many Aussie lives in New Guinea and Daewin etc.

So not really sure of his achievements?
