Jane Norman was egregious yesterday, completely overstating the boos for Albanese at Byron Bay Bluesfest. And Probyn continues to go on about the gaffe ad nauseum over a week later.
David Campbell clarified in twitter from Jimmy Barnes exactly what happened at BluesFest. He wasn't booed.
Finally a day later buried deep in an article the ABC puts out an article about Morrison's 'Mr Speaker' gaffes on the back of another mistake re job seeker payments.
Scott Morrison says he 'misspoke' after incorrectly quoting increase to JobSeeker payment
The Prime Minister clarifies his comments about the increase to the JobSeeker rate, after incorrectly claiming the unemployment benefit had risen to $46 a week since the last federal election.www.abc.net.au
Read an interesting point of view on the press coverage of the *smile*-ups. Albo's employment rate was widely reported because it was a win be the press pack. They threw him a question that made him trip.
ScoMo's were his own doing. Press couldn't take credit for them so not as exciting.
you'd hope there's one ... he also said this when talking about Deves ...
“I mean, that’s just outright bigotry. We live in a cosmopolitan, multicultural society where people are free to be themselves. And that’s a fundamental tenet of liberalism".
China gains a foothold on our doorstep but yeah Albo forgets a number.
Monumental failure of foreign policy.

Has Australia ever had a more divisive Prime Minister?
Deeves is nothing more than a Morrison plant to create a distraction from his governments failings.

Katherine Deves wasn’t chosen in spite of her views on trans people. She was chosen because of them
As the Warringah candidate's past catches up with her, her selection shows how she was chosen for, not despite, her anti-trans beliefs.

call me a conspiracy theorist if you wish, but its almost feels as if the audio from the initial boos (before Albo came on stage) were edited to make it appear Albo was booed pretty badly. I have seen amateur footage that sounds different from the footage released by the media. Many poeple who were there dispute the audio released by the media.
sprung and sprung badly. and guess what? the ABC did a "fact check" and claimed Morrison was right. who does their research?
The MSM are working their hardest to get the ScuMo flogs back in power.
Good to see Penny Wong expose the abject failure of the LNP to head off our near neighbours signing a military pact with the China. Someone in Labor must have a backbone and it looks like it is Penny Wong. If this is a khaki election then the LNP should win no seats. Sort of begs the question as to whether we need nuclear subs in 20 years, at this rate the diesel subs will have plenty of range to defend against China in the unlikely event they militarily threaten Australia.

Labor is on the attack. This is what they need to do, don't listen to anyone telling them they have to articulate their vision, this government hasn't. Just keep reminding people what a rotten bunch of crooks they are.
they are toast. and this is coming from someone who is still scarred from the 2019 result.
Wow, that's more like it. Put that together with what Penny Wong was saying this morning and suddenly the ALP look to have woken up.
This LNP government have been missing in action so often it is amazing they are even contenders.

Can't be underestimated.
ALP did well today. I wonder if they are just keeping their powder dry and looking to ramp up as the election date comes closer. Most things said now will be forgotten come election week.
The last 2 weeks will be crucial, the ALP must nail these LNP shysters to the wall.
Australia has never had such a disgusting Government
