With the Albanese government clinging to a three-seat majority, and facing the real risk of being pushed into minority at the 2025 election, Labor is recommending the Liberal seat of Hughes, in Sydney’s south be abolished.
However, in its submission to the AEC, the Nationals say Anthony Albanese’s inner west seat of Grayndler, and the teal seat of North Sydney should be abolished.
The Liberal Party wants the western Sydney Labor seats of Blaxland and Watson, held respectively by cabinet ministers Jason Clare and Tony Burke, merged into a single seat called Watson.
In addition, the Liberals say the north shore seat of Warringah, held by independent Zali Steggall, should be abolished and a new marginal seat, to be named Bird Walton, established in the fast-growing western suburbs, near the Western Sydney Airport.

Why haven't I heard about this? Labor is as bad as the Democrats.

That's a paywalled article.
The 2025 election can't come fast enough.
Albo has gotta go.

Re: NSW Electoral Redistribution
Wouldn't make any difference to me. Whoever I vote for, where I live I'll end up with a Liberal as my local member. Last time I checked it was the third safest Liberal held seat in NSW.
