Yes, it’s the final week of the 2025 federal election campaign before we head to the polls on Saturday.
Last night, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and the man vying to take his job, Opposition Leader Peter Dutton, faced off in a final leaders’ debate.
Dutton has said he “felt pretty good” after the debate, but questioned the “composition of the audience, where people have come from and what their views were” after Albanese was crowned the winner.

A panel of voters said that the Prime Minister won the debate, with 50 per cent backing Albanese, 25 per cent backing Dutton, and a further 25 per cent remaining undecided.
Speaking on Gold 101.7’s Jonesy and Amanda, Dutton said he would have his “foot flat to the floor for the next week” despite the exhaustion of the campaign hitting all involved.
“The number of families who are really struggling, doing it tough. People who just can’t afford to renew their insurance on the car, you know, pulling kids out of low-fee paying schools, etcetera. There’s a lot of pain out there at the moment. So I think there’s a lot to a lot at stake at this election, and a lot to play for,” Dutton said.
