This week we learned that the Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will soon be a new home owner.
He’s bought a multi-million-dollar house, featuring sweeping ocean views, on the New South Wales central coast.
Some people think it’s a move from the PM that’s especially tone deaf, given the depths of the housing crisis, while others see the story as a complete beat up.
Today, host of Radio National Breakfast and The Party Room podcast, Patricia Karvelas, on why it has become a big problem for the PM.
Patricia Karvelas explains that the timing of the purchase is problematic, given the current housing crisis and the upcoming election.
She says there are concerns about the optics of this purchase, even within the Labor Party.
The episode delves into the public’s reaction and the media’s role in amplifying the controversy.
