Abstract
Labor’s messaging on economic management doesn’t resonate with voters more concerned about their hip pocket. There are already signs it’s trying to change tune.
Anthony Albanese and the Labor Party’s hope of clinging to government in 2025 hinges on dramatically reshaping their pitch to voters more concerned about hip-pocket issues than broader economic messages. Reforms to the composition of the reserve bank and positive economic trends might excite financial markets, but everyday voters need to be spoken to at the level of their pocketbook concerns.
Labor needs to craft messages that resonate in an effort to win back support that has dwindled since 2023.
