The VERY worrying sign for Anthony Albanese that he's losing the support of two crucial groups of voters - as the bitter backlash from the women's rally fiasco explodes: 'Not our saviour'

Abbie Chatfield has delivered a scathing verdict of Anthony Albanese's time in office in a clear sign the PM has an uphill battle to secure a second term.

The media personality has a huge and engaged young audience and was outspoken in the lead up to the 2022 election, encouraging her 475,000 followers to vote. 

She described Mr Albanese's victory as 'the happiest day of her life', telling 'loser Liberals' they could not 'take it away' from her.

Chatfield said she 'cried tears of joy' when he was elected - but has now realised 'Albanese is the mediocre new partner you have after a really s***ty relationship'.

The tide turned for her and many other Gen Z voters after the PM's widely criticised women's march appearance in Canberra at the weekend. 

'I'm sorry... I really had hopes for you my king, but you've let us down time and time again,' she said.

On her It's A Lot podcast, Chatfield slammed the PM in an episode titled 'Is this the beginning of the downfall of Anthony Albanese?' 

She admitted she had '...high hopes after Albanese was elected', but she now conceded: 'This is not how I thought his term in office would go.'

She shared her insights on Instagram and was met with dozens of comments agreeing with her. 

Mr Albanese was elected on a platform of empathy and gender equality after women in particular turned on former Prime Minister Scott Morrison.

A government source told Daily Mail Australia the next election will be a test to determine 'whether the public voted for him, or were just voting against Morrison'.

'He needs the women's vote, he knows that. And the Greens have a lot of the young vote, but he'll need their backing too.'

The insider said Mr Albanese's Stage Three tax backflip - which hurts high income earners who are traditionally older and male - has meant he'll be relying even more on young people and women at the next election. 

But he's facing backlash and questions over a speech he delivered at a Canberra rally at the weekend, after footage emerged of him telling the organiser 'I am the Prime Minister' as she burst into tears.

Mr Albanese described the problem as a 'national crisis' and said one or two months of funding would not be enough to solve it.

'It's up to men to change men's behaviour as well,' he said.

'Yes, people do need to be made accountable and I'll be accountable for what my government does.'

Organiser Sarah Williams later slammed Mr Albanese on social media, accusing him of entitlement in a scathing post.

'Albanese abusing his power by aggressively stating when I asked the crowd if we should let him speak, 'I'm the prime minister of this country, I run this country' demonstrated his entitlement,' she wrote.

Video of the event shows Ms Williams telling Mr Albanese 'that's a lie, that's a flat-out lie' after he claimed he had earlier requested to speak but been denied.

The PM will hold a national cabinet meeting on Wednesday with state and territory leaders to discuss the violence against women crisis gripping Australia.

In 2024 so far, 27 women have been murdered - amounting to one every four days.

Among the victims were five women who lost their lives after knifeman Joel Cauchi, 40, carried out his stabbing rampage at Westfield Bondi Junction on April 13.

Since then, 28-year-old Forbes woman Molly Ticehurst and 49-year-old Emma Bates were both found dead in their homes in separate incidents. Two men have been charged in relation to each of the tragedies.

Rebecca Young, 42, Samantha Murphy, 51 and Hannah McGuire, 23 have all tragically died in the past two months, while mother Chaithanya Madhagani, known as 'Swetha' was found inside a wheelie bin on March 9.

Ahead of the 2022 election, the PM led criticism against Scott Morrison for his handling of women's issues - from the Brittany Higgins complaint to national women's marches. 

Mr Morrison controversially responded to a women's march by telling parliament 'not far from here, such marches, even now are being met with bullets, but not here in this country'.
