On the seat of Fowler and Labor’s candidate Tu Le, Albanese says:

I have supported, encouraged very strongly Tu Le to run for Fowler. She’s a gun candidate. She is a future Cabinet minister. You can have the – the people of Fowler can have an independent waiting for decisions to be made saying as Peter Dutton has said – that the first call he’ll make if he’s in a minority situation will be to Dai Le. Of course a former Liberal Party candidate. But someone who now sits as an independent. If you’re an Independent, you wait for decisions to be made and then decide whether you support them or not. Or you can have someone who’s a future Cabinet Minister. I have no doubt Tu Le is that. I think she’s outstanding. I encouraged her to be the candidate and I think she’ll make a fantastic member for Fowler.
