Abstract

After the Queensland state election of October 2020, many hailed the win for Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk’s government as a landmark victory. Principally, that win made Palaszczuk the most electorally successful female leader in Australian politics. It also cemented her position among the ranks of leading Labor figures in Queensland’s political annals. What, then, might Palaszczuk’s appeal and longevity as Labor leader and Premier signify in terms of her political achievements and record in government? This article offers a brief appraisal of Palaszczuk’s standing and leadership compared with recent Labor predecessors, who similarly won multiple terms in office in this state.
