Lady Madam Anna Worthington COA | 10 October 2019 | 14 October 2020 | Storm Party | As both the Storm Party and the Red Green Alliance had won three seats each in the House, it was unclear which party should be considered the official opposition. However, Storm received a higher share of the popular vote, and Worthington was a more active critic of the government than RGA leader Billy Thompson, so she is generally considered to have been Leader of the Opposition. | ||
