The Greens bet on Gaza and may have lost the House

  • Greens leader Adam Bandt lost his Melbourne seat to Labor candidate Sarah Witty in the 2025 federal election.
  • Bandt's defeat followed internal Greens issues including group-think, intolerance of free speech, and a strong focus on the Gaza conflict.
  • The Greens' campaign highlighted the Gaza war and antisemitism, which critics say alienated voters and led to losing three of four Lower House seats.
  • Bandt faced an 8 percent swing against him and required 63 percent of remaining postal votes to hold Melbourne, but projections indicated likely loss.
  • The results suggest Australian voters rejected the Greens' conflict-focused politics, though the party may keep balance of power in the Senate.
