Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has spoken with News24 (formerly Sky News) to discuss his tenure in the office so far.
Albanese has held his office for 4 years and 83 days, surpassing former PM Paul Keating to become the fourth longest serving Labor PM.
The prime minister says he doesn't see this achievement as a "personal milestone". He says he's not here to "occupy the space" and wants to make a difference to maintain a strong economy.
"I've said that I want to see Labor in government for the long term," Albanese says.
"I see Labor as the natural party of government, that we represent the interests of a majority of Australians. I think it's very clear that we're the only mainstream political party now."
He says he believes governments should run their full three year term, and says he "certainly" intends to contest the next election.

Meta has revealed it has removed access to an additional 250,000 accounts belonging to under 16s since the teen social media ban began in December.
It had already removed 500,000 accounts across Instagram and Facebook in the lead up to the law taking effect.
The updated figures were released overnight ahead of Meta's appearance at a Senate hearing today, which will look at how well the ban is working.
As the ABC reported last month, research from the eSafety commissioner showed that as of March this year, 80 per cent of Australian teenagers under 16 were still using social media.
Anthony Albanese won't say what "personal" matters were discussed in his phone call with US President Donald Trump overnight.
