Anthony Albanese flags a jobs 'revolution' as new direction for Labor

Opposition leader's first vision statement says a shift to clean energy will unlock new economic opportunities

Labor leader Anthony Albanese has pledged to tackle skills shortages and industrial relations reform if he wins government, as he seeks to reposition the party's proposed action on climate change as a new jobs "revolution".

In the first of a series of vision statements aimed at resetting Labor's policy agenda following the May election, the opposition leader has outlined the party's jobs and skills agenda in a speech in Perth on Tuesday.
