Opposition wins Australia poll
Kevin Rudd, Australia's principal opposition leader, has led his Labor Party to an emphatic victory in the country's parliamentary election, ending John Howard's 11-years as the prime minister.
Speaking at his campaign headquarters in Brisbane, Rudd thanked Howard for his public service and pledged to "write a new page in our nation's history".
Rudd said: "I will be a prime minister for all Australians. A prime minister for indigineous Australians. Australians who have been born here and Australians who have come here from afar."
He said he looked forward to working in participation with countries across continents.
Howard vanquished
The Labor leader said: "I want to thank all those Australians who have placed their trust in me and my team... I will never take their sacred trust for granted. This is a great responsibility... I stand ready to accept that responsibility."
Howard, who is likely to lose his own seat of Bennelong in Sydney, making him the first prime minister to do so in 78 years, described Labor's win as an "emphatic victory".
He said: "This is a great democracy and I want to wish Mr Rudd well. He assumes the mantle of the 26th prime minister of Australia.
"We bequeath to him a nation that is stronger and prouder and more prosperous than it was 11-and-a-half years ago."
He said there was "no prouder job in the world than being prime minister of Australia".
The election was fought mainly on domestic issues, with Labor capitalising on anger at workplace laws and rising interest rates which put home owners under financial pressure at a time when Australia's economy is booming.
New generation
Rudd, the 50-year-old Labor party leader, had presented himself as a new generation politician compared with Howard, who is 68.
Rudd promised to pull Australian combat troops out of Iraq and sign the Kyoto Protocol on climate change, further isolating Washington on both issues.
The former diplomat, who speaks Mandarin, is also be expected to forge closer ties with China and other Asian nations.
His message for change attracted a swing of more than five per cent across the nation from the previous election, locking in only the sixth change of government since World War Two.
"I offer Australia new leadership for the future, a positive plan for the future because Mr Howard's government's best days now lay behind it," Rudd said on Friday.
"Mr Howard has gone stale in his government's approach to the future."
Emphatic win
Election analyst Antony Green predicted Labor would win at least 80 seats in the 150-seat parliament, giving it a clear majority in its own right for the first time since it lost power to Howard in 1996.
Green said: "The victory is starting to become more emphatic and the Labor Party is picking up seats way beyond the 5 per cent swing required."
"We've all got goose bumps that finally we might have a leader who is passionate about fairness in this country.
"Finally, after 11 years, it's happening," Celeste Giese, 39, said at a football stadium in the northern city of Brisbane where Rudd was due to hold a victory party.
Slick campaign
Dan Nolan, Al Jazeera's correspondent in Sydney, said that Rudd and his Labor party had run a strong campaign and there have been comparisons with Tony Blair's campaign that ended a long period of conservative rule in the UK in the 1990s.
Howard had trailed in opinion polls all year with some forecasting a landslide victory for Labor, but surveys in the final days of the campaign said the contest was close.
Howard is a close ally of George Bush, the US president, and had made a commitment to keep Australian troops in Iraq if re-elected.
He also offered voters $29 billion in tax cuts, but few new policies.
What about Canadian Zionist extraordinaire, Stephen Harper?
How about Hungarian Prime Minister Ferenc Gyurcsány, a militantly Zionist Jew who admits he lied to get into office? His ministers spend as much time in Israel as they do in Hungary. When the people of Budapest demonstrate against the government, Gyurcsány flies in troops from Israel.
Poland is controlled by Jews. The Czech Republic too.
howard was an asssucking zido-fascist; congratulations OZ, you've kicked THAT wizard out of de tower!
i'm still skeptical though, Rudd will bring troops home and support ziooser-carbon-Levi. (Mike Gravel?)
THEN, mr.mandarin will join the commies, if the fascists continue to decline; in with the new, and out with de olde [world order].
