What happens if no party achieves a majority?

From johnmenadue.com: A hung parliament in Australia does not constitute a constitutional crisis, as the current government may remain in office until the prime minister resigns or faces a no-confidence vote.

Historical precedents exist where previous governments operated effectively without a parliamentary majority, demonstrating that governance can continue through various arrangements, including minority governments without formal deals from independents.

Foreign interference in elections has been a concern, with instances such as Elon Musk’s backing of specific political parties, and raising questions about the impact of foreign influence on Australian politics and the public’s trust in electoral integrity.
