Great fun to interview James Bagge, ahead of today's UK general election, for the Adelaide Advertiser.

If successful, the independent candidate would be the first person to unseat a UK prime minister in more than a century - and he has an Australian connection. #UKElection2024

Had great fun annoying marketing executives (and one of Australia’s wealthiest men) with my mate @MadeStuchbery via our feature on the provenance of Australian-branded clothing, which recently took out a News Award for best investigation:

Applause emanates from Victorian Liberal party room as we await returning officer from leadership ballot #springst

[Alex Sinnott @AlexSinnott1]

Worked with @alexandracottee on a feature about the future of Victoria's Liberal-National coalition following last month's electoral belting. Includes an amusing anecdote about how a young John Gorton predicted the future #springst #Vicvotes22

In the coming four year term, he will pass Rupert Hamer, James McCulloch and Albert Dunstan to be the second-longest serving Victorian premier. But he'll need two more victories to beat Henry Bolte's 17-year run #springst #VicVotes2022

[Alex Sinnott @AlexSinnott1]

Following tonight’s victory, Dan Andrews will secure a statue by February (passing the 3000 day mark) and go onto become Labor’s longest-serving premier in April, surpassing John Cain jnr’s tenure #vicvotes #VicVotes2022

[Alex Sinnott @AlexSinnott1]

While Animal Justice may lose Western Vic, they're doing well in Northern Vic, where Georgie Purcell is ahead on early numbers (again, LC results will become clearer next week) #springst #VicVotes2022

[Alex Sinnott @AlexSinnott1]

@gumnut49 Correct- count will go into next week. Another tight race for fifth spot in Western Vic following Kavanagh ('06), O'Brien ('10), Purcell ('14) and Meddick ('18)

[Alex Sinnott @AlexSinnott1]

Geelong, Ballarat and Bendigo all solidly Labor. Speculation about ALP vote in Mulgrave proven baseless
Swings to the Coalition in more rural constituencies #springst #VicVotes2022

Coalition frontbencher Roma Britnell is on track to retain South West Coast. She tells The Weekly Times it's a bittersweet result, given lack of Liberal success in Melbourne #springst #VicVotes2022

[Alex Sinnott @AlexSinnott1]

@SheedSuzanna looking likely to lose Shepparton. Not anticipated by election watchers after a strong result in 2018. Nats candidate Kim O'Keefe on track to regain the electorate #springst #VicVotes2022

[Natalie Kotsios @NatalieKotsios]

@theweeklytimes @david_johnston5 @elsekennedy While @AlexSinnott1 is keeping track of how things are shaping up across all of regional Vic. Enjoy!

Majority government for Labor looking increasingly likely with western suburbs and Melb sandbelt staying with ALP. Even Bass in the Labor column #springst #VicVotes #VicVotes2022
