Today is the last day the Federal Parliament will sit in 2021, and 2 of the most high profile ministers in the Morrison Government – Health Minister Greg Hunt and Industry Minister Christian Porter – are outlining plans to federal politics behind. Porter yesterday confirmed that he will not contest the next election in his Western Australian seat of Pearce. After a stint in state politics, he shifted to federal politics in 2013, where he served as the country’s chief law officer. And Porter was in the news a lot this year over historical rape accusations, which he strongly denies. “But even though I have experienced perhaps more of the harshness of modern politics than most, there are no regrets,” he said. As for Hunt, an announcement is expected today. As Federal Health Minister, he’s been a constant figure throughout the pandemic. The federal election is due to be held by 21 May next year.
