Bad

I voted labour. I am beginning to regret it

I don't agree to spend my tax money to support an American proxy war. Albo should look after our interests. What America says is an enemy is not necessarily Australia's enemy. Ukraine lost the Donbas no need to lose life for nothing.

Albo please fix our country 😢 first help homeless 🙏 people before making good donations to all others I voted for Labor so you can feed our joung homeless people AMIN

Putin had to invade UKRAINE. 1: NAZI DRIVEN COUNTRY 2: BIO LABS OWNED BY USA 3: MAJOR CHILD TORTURE AND TRAFFICKING.

More and more

Place some sanctions on China for its key role in withholding information about the initial outbreaks of the Coronavirus. But no. One look from one eye from China and our so called leaders cower into a corner.

They've got him well and truly!Sucked right into the USA 's scam.

How much aid is he promising and giving when our own protecting army perhaps has less armaments

All while Australians drown absentPM

Australia funding a predominantly Nazi driven ideologies? I think every major Australian capital city needs a new statue in tribute to Ukraine... This Stepan Bandera statue would suit? Is this what Australia now stands for?

meanwhile Australia is flooding ... no problem eh

100 million + to Zelensky to keep killing Russians. ONE lousy million to the earthquake victims in Afghanistan 🤬

Increased western world leadership visits Increased Russian territorial gains. Doesn't make sense 😕

By the time he gets back from his spending spree there will be no money for any projects in Aus. No flood relief, no defence projects and definitely no fast trains. Nothing to build this country.

Another puppet 😂Albo is missing 😝

How about just helping the people at home first?

Putin must be shaking in his boots!

Where’s the First Nation’s flags?

Albo really is the patron saint of list causes. Ukraine, renewable energy, etc etc.

No mention of the 28million the Ukrainian mps wife was caught smuggling out?

AUSKUS...directive.. never independent

Damn. We are not going to see the end to this conflict anytime soon.

You are only prolonging this war. Russia cannot be defeated. Our taxpayer dollars only mean more weapons and more deaths. This should & will all end at a diplomacy table. But many more thousands will be dead by then. Blood on your hands Anthony Albanese.

AlboMP is promising more money and weapons to this openly corrupt and racist country. While his treasurer just announced that Australians should brace for higher fuel costs due to ending the discount in September. The Gov hates you.

That's where waldo has been

Albanese visits war-ravaged towns in UkraineThe Australian prime minister has visited towns near Kyiv where Russia allegedly committed atrocities against civilians. Notice how he's not dressed like a dressed like a soldier. He's an adult, and a politician viewing a war zone, and he behaves like one. Did he bring a hose? Everyone is visiting the set. Heard they’re going to film a new season of Friends there..
