Tony Abbott to be new Australian prime minster after 'landslide win'

Australia's conservative leader Tony Abbott swept into office today in a landslide election after incumbent prime minister Kevin Rudd conceded defeat.

"Mr Abbott has vowed he will scrap Labour’s carbon and mining taxes, cut the budget deficit, reduce foreign aid, boost defence spending and take a tough stance towards asylum seekers."
