Scott Morrison just delivered a speech to Liberal supporters after conceding defeat in the 2022 Australian election, even calling Mr. Albanese to congratulate him on Labor winning the election for the first time since 2013.
Speaking to the Liberal followers in Sydney, Mr. Morrison stated: ‘Tonight, I have spoken to the Leader of the Opposition and the incoming Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese.
‘And I’ve congratulated him on his election victory this evening.
‘I have always believed in Australians and their judgment, and I’ve always been prepared to accept their verdicts.
‘And tonight they have delivered their verdict, and I congratulate Anthony Albanese and the Labor Party, and I wish him and his government all the very best.’
Mr. Morrison also paid tribute to his family in his speech, saying: ‘I still believe in miracles.
‘And the biggest miracles, as I said three years ago, were standing beside me, and here they are again tonight with Jenny and my daughters. They are the greatest miracle in my life.’
Mr. Morrison said he would step down as Liberal leader at the next party meeting. You can watch his full speech below, courtesy of ABC News.
