Albanese is playing down the terrorist attack on the Melbourne synagogue with his bizarre statement, “antisemitism has been around for a long time”.

Not in Australia it hasn't - until now, under a gutless Albanese government. What a bizarre statement for our Prime Minister to make.

Albanese has history as a pro-Palestinian activist, and he and Wong criticise Israel almost daily.

Thanks to inappropriate immigration, and a gutless, enabling government, Australia is coming close to being categorised as an anti-Semitic country. Not the people: the government that broadcasts itself globally.

Jews are no longer safe in Australia.

Hi Indyvidual,

Everyone has a perspective about things and should have the freedom to express an opinion. That is what democracy is about. I have found Albo's conduct relating to this freedom as incomprehensible as it has been revolting. He got all worked up after losing the war of words in the Voice referendum, resorting to the authoritarian cry of being thwarted by "misinformation and disinformation", yet all the anti-Semitic bile and hatred from illegal protests has prompted him to do sfa.

I wish that were the extent of cult leader Albo's failure, but unfortunately the biggest threat to Australia's living standards and environment are from Albo's endorsement of the fanatical pursuit of renewable energy.

Indyvidual,

You NEVER have to reply to people who post nothing but contempt for, and abuse of, other posters; ignoring the subject in favour of personal attacks and comments. Ignoring them is the way to go. Such people are a waste of space, and not worthy of your attention.

Fester,

Albanese is the "biggest threat" to Australians, period. The more level headed in the Labor Party would be rid of him in a minute, if it wasn't for the 75% vote needed to get rid of a Labor leader.

We can thank Kevin Rudd for that. It's not quite like President Xi being declared dictator for life, but it is a serious problem in a democratic country when, somehow, a totally inappropriate person like Albanese gets the job.

I honestly don't see what difference it makes.
Let's say Albo loses the next election, then what?
We may not have Labor in charge doing dumb things, we'll have Dutton in charge doing dumb things instead, and just like Albo when the Aussie citizens get fed up with Dutton, just as many are fed up with Albo now, the baton will get passed back to Labor again.

It's just a vicious cycle of kicking the current leader out while convincing ourselves we're voting for the 'lesser evil' every time.
Rinse and repeat.

Maybe we should have an 'Annual democracy battle'.
A full televised day (or week) once a year where the two majors go at each other Labor V's LNP on policy positions, like a debate of sorts, and Aussie viewers watch live and throw their two cents in.

Put them both under the pump at the same time.
