Description:

After holding the country’s top job since 2018, Morrison - and the Liberal party he led - lost this year’s federal election.

The defeat was so resounding the Treasurer Josh Frydenberg, once pipped to take over from Morrison, lost his own seat, as once-safe liberal seats turned teal for independents elected by disaffected voters.

National affairs editor James Massola speaks to economics correspondent Rachel Clun, about what went wrong for the coalition as bushfires and covid swept the nation.
