Mr Albanese did not want to pre-empt what the report would contain but said:"If there are recommendations which suggest immediate action, then I'm certainly up for it".

Albo needs an inquiry to learn what everyone in the NT has known for decades. Alcohol is the problem and the Labor side of politics decide it was racist to deny it to the indigenous members of our society in these problem areas. They are reaping what they sowed🤔

It’s a Catch22; deal with the alcohol fuelled behaviours now (this has been immediate) and be “racist”; or, try to deal with the reason people turn to alcohol, which will take much more time and effort. Either way someone isn’t happy.

Immediately the tennis, footie, cricket, et al is over - he'll settle down with a 'coldie' and set up a meeting, to see if an inquiry into holding a Royal Commission is absolutely necessary. He has been working hard however & needs a few days to chill out with family and friends.

You done good again Albo.

A Big Albanese Labor Stuff Up be honest!

making a difference 2 days of the week

Give them plenty of free VB and keep them all drunk asleep in the park bro..

TOTAL IDIOT

He was the one that removed the restrictions and cashless card !!! He’s now putting the restrictions back in place and claiming his action is making a difference. You can’t make this stuff up 😂

The Elmer Fudd

Turning grog off for two days no shit it will work. Make the NT a permit system

willicash 😱😱😇

'Already making a difference' I think Albo has been having too many beers.

Already making a difference…that’s a lie

Albo ‘every step you take, every move you make, someone is watching you’. An old anti-drink drive promo but applicable to failed politicians who think that they can or will get away with incompetence. This AS problem is perennial & will take increased law enforcement to prevail.

He is a liar

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

What an absolute lie from AlboMP auspol

The problem was known for a long time . As soon as possible isn’t good enough when coerced and forced into action by public opinion. Albanese is clearly not a leader ! Ditch him as soon as possible .

Small step towards to where it was before they canceled the system that had been easing the situation.

Thought of this at the Australian Open tennis where you spent so much time rather than a spending time in the NT ?

Bullets can fix the problem

You failed Albo

Well Done Albo , have a Ice Cream 🍦Albo

Just a few more beers at the tennis and he will be on to it.

That right Can you show us some proof

He is so out of touch

Oh dear more rubbish being spoken 🙄

😂👍🤪

Puppet of all puppets!

How full of crap can one man be

What lies you spread...who is looking after the innocent children...not you ..you scumb.

So a three on one axe attack doesn't count?

Just waiting for a break in his event schedule.

He came he saw he left. Albo unable to make decisions without a report. Maybe you and Ms Burney start listening to Jacinta Price.

Not according to the locals🤔

So children and babies are safe from predators in the community?

the ALBO show is just RUDD 2.0 except now TANYA can't do a JULIA & rid us of this sad trainwreck 2.0 movie due to KRUDD07 changing the rules to prevent it from happening

I tell ALBO’S lying, happens every time he speaks. He’s the king of disinformation

The ‘crime and dysfunction’ continues in Alice SpringsSky News host Chris Kenny says “the crime and dysfunction continues in Alice Springs” as there are “long-standing problems” that will persist if no action is taken. He discussed the issue with filmmaker Rachel Perkins and Central Australian Aboriginal Congress’ Ken Lechleitner. Meanwhile Albo the lying con man was chugging down beers at the tennis ignoring the problem. These woke left extremist Labor governments are destroying our country. What did ScottyFromMarketing and the coalition do to lessen the Alice Springs ticking time bomb. Instead of gifting Hillsong and others $$$$$s maybe they could have directed it to alleviate indigenous issues! Conservatives in Australia are useless is what I read here.
