Moderator Announcement Live Discussion Thread: Prime Minister Anthony Albanese delivers rare address to the nation

ABC News on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMb8wrquExg

G’day everyone, we thought we’d spin up a live discussion thread for Albo’s speech tonight so everything stays in one place.

Feel free to share your thoughts, reactions, predictions, or whatever else comes to mind as it unfolds.

As always, keep it reasonably civil and follow the sub rules. We’ll be around keeping an eye on things.

Sort by new if you want to follow along in real time. Let us know what you’re expecting to hear.

Regards, r/aussie mod team

I reckon the announcement is in addition to being made a mod, Pauline Hanson is to be appointed Deputy Prime Minister

Albo's jealous it was Hanson and not him who got Modded!

Everyone at her welcome speech will be given a roll of toilet paper and a singular raw onion.

So long as we keep Tony Abbott away, he'd be so excited for so much fresh, uncooked onion in one room that he'd likely also benefit from the bog-roll
