Australia facing a hung Parliament - News Summed Up

Australia facing a hung Parliament


Keywords: Malcolm Turnbull, election, Australia, politics Australia was in political limbo on Sunday after voters failed to hand Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull the stability he craved in calling an election, with the nation instead facing the prospect of a hung parliament. Business leaders said the possibility of a hung parliament was bad news and urged a speedy resolution. "His agenda was out of touch and a lot of Australians made that clear on Saturday in the ballot booths right across Australia," he said of Turnbull. That leaves 13 seats still too close to call with 76 needed to rule outright in the 150-seat House of Representatives.
