Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese has accused Scott Morrison of providing a “$20 million incentive” to the NT government back in 2016 when he was Treasurer to sell the Port of Darwin to a company which had links to the Communist Party.

“I'm asked about China, and the other night, we had a question about the Port of Darwin where Scott Morrison said it had nothing to do with the federal government,” Mr Albanese said.

“Well, this here is a signed document, signed by Scott Morrison in May 2016 as the Treasurer of Australia and by David Tollner, the (former) Treasurer of the Northern Territory.

“The government and Scott Morrison as Treasurer provided a $20 million incentive to the Northern Territory government under its asset recycling program to sell the port of (Darwin) … to a company that had interests connected with the Chinese Communist Party.”

Slippery Morrison and Spud Dutton are surely Manchurian Candidates after the Port of Darwin and Maybe Port of Townsville Affair.

Two points
It's was a program of asset renewal, labour backed the program
Labour and albo in particular did not oppose it at the time

Bonus point, it was a bad decision, however the foreign investment review board approved it, the state government wanted it and labour supported it. The mood then in Aust was to collaborate with investment from China, anyone who raised questions was labelled racist, labour often did the labelling

Morrison and Dutton have constantly criticised China. They have used war talk whenever they mention China. They have double handedly ruined the Australia China relationship.
