Anthony Albanese holds a small dog while surfing a teal-coloured wave. In the wave are barrels and caricatures of political opponents.

The wave of ‘teal independents’ elected to the 47th parliament swept a cavoodle-carrying Anthony Albanese and the Labor Party into government after nine long years in opposition. It was only the fourth time since the Second World War that Labor had won government from opposition.
