News24 host Steve Price has launched a scathing attack on Anthony Albanese, declaring that the Prime Minister “no longer deserves” to lead the nation. The fiery commentary followed what Price slammed as a “pathetic response” from the PM, who used “weasel words” to defend his office’s distribution of a political “dirt sheet” targeting Independent MP Helen Haines. The row erupted after it was revealed that Albanese’s taxpayer funded media team circulated a dossier listing over $1.8 billion in local funding requests made by Haines, an aggressive move widely seen as retaliation for her criticism of Labor's election grant programs. When cornered on the issue, Albanese refused to deny the document's existence and awkwardly claimed it was actually a “compliment” demonstrating that “people of integrity stand up for their electorate” With friends like Albanese, who needs enemies?

BREAKING: Anthony Albanese has been forced to admit he misled Parliament over $6m taxpayer gift to his local golf club. In September he stood in the House and claimed the Marrickville Golf Club grant was to fix a sewerage crisis, raw sewage flooding into the Cooks River every time it rains. “That is what the funding is for,” he said. Today he was dragged back and finally confessed the truth: “Not correct, it was not correct.” Department officials had already blown it up in Senate Estimates. Sewerage works were “not in the scope of the grant.” Full stop. When Dan Tehan moved to force him to own the lie, Labor’s numbers blocked it 87–44. Then, under repeated questions, Albanese tried the classic dodge: “During election campaigns, people make commitments.” Translation: I said whatever it took to get the money out the door to a mates’ club, and now the NSW Government is cleaning up the mess I invented. Peta Credlin called it exactly what it is “grey corruption” Invite only, shoulder tapped by Labor MPs, no open process, taxpayers ripped off. Misleading the House of Representatives over millions of your dollars. And Labor voted to protect him. This is the tip of the iceberg. How long before he stands down?
