Anthony Albanese - turn the temp down.
Also Albanese 👇
“This is a crucial time for our movement because across the world, hard-right populists are on the march, peddling politics that is dangerous, divisive and downright dishonest.
“We simply must defeat them. We owe it to history. We owe it to the nation, and we will defeat them"
He needs to go, this flog has shown his true colours, the country is fucked... He made sure he drove every last single nail in to its coffin and then some.
Going to be a long ride before we get our chance to have a say at the ballot box, who knows where this ends.
