From www.sbs.com.au: ‘Peter Dutton is seeking to defy almost 100 years of political history by defeating Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and unseating his first-term government.’

Dutton had a background in law enforcement before entering politics.

He became the leader of the Liberal Party in May 2022 after the party’s significant electoral loss in 2022, and has represented the Queensland seat of Dickson in the House of Representatives since 2001.
