Australian election
Political negotiations are continuing in Australia following the country's first hung parliament for nearly 70 years.
The election has been extraordinary for so many reasons. The country has elected its first ever indigenous member into the House of Representatives, as well as its first Green MP.
The election is also a milestone as it has seen Australia's youngest ever MP and first Muslim MP elected into the House of Reps.
