After Her Majesty’s passing, a reporter asked the Prime Minister whether he would like some one Australian to take The Queen’s place on the $5 note. The Prime Minister slammed the reporter.
During a news conference on Tuesday, Anthony Albanese became agitated about what he seemed to consider was a pointless question.
“I’m talking about the Queen Elizabeth II funeral that will happen next Monday, and I’m getting a query regarding a replacement for the $5 note.”
“I believe that a little respect is called for at this time.”
I haven’t focused on that problem because, “And, you know, we will deal with these concerns correctly, in an orderly manner, in a way that is courteous.”
On Monday, Anthony Albanese (pictured) lashed out at a reporter who had dared to question him, pleading for “a modicum of respect.”
Australia will undergo a number of changes as a result of Queen Elizabeth’s passing after 70 years on the throne, including the addition of the new king’s image on the nation’s currency.
However, some Australians have rushed to social media to demand that when the printing press gets going, notable Australians be honoured on the nation’s legal cash.
One lady Tweeted, “Time to replace Queen Elizabeth’s visage on banknotes with Steve Irwin or Heath Ledger, I guess.”
Earlier, Mr. Albanese was corrected live on the radio for a weird rambling about the Queen’s birthday public holiday on September 22.
Mr. Albanese stumbled over himself when asked by Ben Fordham on 2GB how the holiday wouldn’t cause previously scheduled hospital visits to be cancelled.
For the Melbourne physicians, the next day was… is a vacation since it precedes the AFL championship game, he added.
So what does it mean? Fordham interjected.
‘, the Prime Minister fumbled on, and then.
Well, consider that the AFL grand final occurs each year, and they always have a day off. Before he could finish his statement, he mumbled, “on the Friday before,” and then he spoke.
As they already have the next day off for the ALF championship game, the declaration of the Thursday public holiday to honour the Queens Victorians will result in a four-day vacation.
The Prime Minister said, “This is a once in 70 years event and I’m convinced that these concerns, with a little common sense, can be sorted out.”
“Of course they should undergo chemotherapy if they need it on that exact day.”
