‘Show the footage’: Albanese accused of bullying MP

Liberal MP Michelle Landry has accused Prime Minister Anthony Albanese of bullying her in parliament.

Mr Albanese has denied the accusation.

“Show the footage, you’ll see me having an exchange with Peter Dutton, not with the member fore Capricornia about the fact that he as injecting, yelling at me … he didn’t know his Yeppoon from his Yeppen. They’re two different places," he said.

“It was an exchange between myself, and Peter Dutton and the footage shows during that time Michelle Landry actually laughing at my response that was good-humored, bit of a joke about ‘Queenslander’ which is of course a reference to the fact Peter Dutton didn’t seem to know his Yeppoon to his Yeppen and that’s why the speaker looked at it and said there’s nothing to see here.”

Where were these muts when there own party was bullying what a stunt bye them but failed and the footage shows it

[katsebo]

I saw the whole thing and Albo’s description is correct. It’s a little insulting that these men think women can’t cope with sarcasm the same way men can but.. what is worse is that this woman can so obviously fabricate a story and the main stream media will report it!

[macfin]

The clip was absolutely amazing from Albo, was one of those magic moments, absolutely flattened Dutton

[loagzie]

I'm not a Labor voter but that wasn't bullying, if this passes as bullying then everyone who's ever corrected anyone's mistake could be considered a bully... I'm all for sky news giving it to Labor, but come on, don't clutch at straws

What happened to the PM, the champion for women?

[dorianshadesofgray]

Come on Libs. Focus on the plethora of real issues that Albanese needs to be held accountable for. This was a nothing burger

Show the footage


*doesnt show footage*

I can only assume the host is deaf considering he literally explained what had happened (described the video pretty well) and then he asked if he'd apologised to her ... tell me, what the hell he should be apologising for? When anyone with half a brain would be able to tell his comments weren't aimed at her as her falsely claimed

[tamaveirene]

Oh boo hoo! Another meanie pollie giving it out to a cry-baby! Rewind ad infinitum!

[ditzyfifi]

Hey Albo where are the plans for the country. Remember for weeks you and Little Jimmy "We have a plan". Well we are planning to march in the streets, we are angry take note Albo

[muzzleflash]

Albo sees woman only as a receptacle, rather than something more important.

[Freedom-udlq]

When the barrel of negative ALP content is empty....🥵

[kanderson]

I'm upset that you are spending $50 million on a climate conference.

[JS-lkgr]

This is cooked.... Dutton gets roasted for his mistake and the Libs concoct a bullying story against a woman. How deperate (childish) are these guys ! Setting women's rights back 50 years ladies, you should be ashamed to play or be dragged into these games.

[jimmartin]

He is( albo) spot on in his account of what happened. Dutton was trying to be a smart arse, got it completely wrong she was laughing, than hours later complaining about been bullied. Harden up princess

[TheRealBobSmith.]

Some people do laugh when confronted like that. This Man is disgusting.

[Conky]

This peanut promised to lower power prices 8 weeks ago- now it's a 50% increase and we are in a war in ukraine. What a drop kick.

[paulkerr]

Albosleazy - it's all in the name

[tonybennett]

Not a fan of Albo but what a load of rubbish... in tears for goodness sake she signed on as a politician what did she expect.🤪

[brianmcchesney]

I don’t like Labour but it’s parliament and if you can’t accept robust conversation then don’t be part of it.
She was lucky it wasn’t Paul Keating having a go at her.
