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?

Can he even be HONEST just once in his sad pathetic life. And this clown 🤡 is our pm Australian Prime Minister has been caught out “Misleading Parliament” in official terms. Aussies? We call a spade a spade. Anthony Albanese is a deceptive, malignant NARCISSISTIC LIAR. AFTER telling parliament the $6m for Marrickville was for “urgent sewerage issues”, his own department spilled the beans in estimates. Department officials rejected the PM’s false claim that a $6 million grant promised to Marrickville Golf Club was meant for fixing sewerage issues. The prime minister admitted his initial claim to the House of Representatives that the grant was for sewerage fixes “was wrong”. Oh hey @AlboMP 👋 Resign now.

BREAKING: Department of Infrastructure officials have just confirmed what many suspected: the $6 million federal grant to Marrickville Golf Club in Anthony Albanese’s electorate was not for fixing sewerage issues. Albanese repeatedly told Parliament and the ABC that the money was to stop raw sewage flowing into the Cooks River during floods. Officials at Senate estimates were clear: “It does not include sewerage works.” The actual project, according to departmental briefs, FOI documents and council minutes: $4.5m went to the clubhouse redevelopment (bar, toilets, pro shop, alfresco dining, dog station) $1m stormwater harvesting. $0.5m landscaping/native plantings The septic/sewage connection was handled separately by a $269,500 NSW Government grant in 2025. This is the same club where Albanese held an undisclosed honorary membership dating back years, something he says he didn’t know about and never used, despite being caught on camera at the club hundreds of times. People have been forced to stand down over far less. Barry O’Farrell resigned as NSW Premier in 2014 after ICAC evidence showed he received a bottle of Penfolds Grange (valued at around $3,000) that he failed to declare and initially denied receiving. One bottle. One denial. Career over. Here we have a Prime Minister whose department has contradicted his public statements about a $6 million grant to a club in his own seat, after an undeclared membership was revealed, and he remains in office. If a bottle of Grange ended a Premier, what standard are we applying now?

It's time to debate & expose the sheer political madness in weather related, destructive, unreliable, toxic & non-recyclable renewables. If Labor truly wanted to put the brakes on spending they need to cease all renewable subsidies & contracts immediately

Renewables are not quite as clean as they seem.
... your Chinese made wind turbine blades to landfill. Because they are made of composite materials, it makes too expensive to recycle. BPA in them eventually leeches out into ground water. That's "renewables" 🇦🇺💀💀💀

Anthony Albanese should resign. The blame, the division, the lies, the incompetence, the country lurching from one crisis to the next…from one failure to the next… It’s time for him to go.

See the senior staffer Albanese employed to run his office. No wonder the joint is a mess. This one is in charge of 59 other media advisors and staffers in Albanese's office. Here she is being grilled about the Helen Haines "dirt" sheet. She denied knowing anything about it. We know where Albanese gets it from. His lies that is.

Snowy 2.0- Australia's most expensive energy project will cost up to $25bn BEFORE transmission bills are counted, but save consumers just $7bn - less than a third of its price tag -over the next 45 years! We are suffering under this government. We never got the promised $275 off our power bills and our costs will continue to increase! Chris Bowen needs to resign immediately! This is outrageous and criminal!

Even Bumbling Bowen admits the Snowy blowout will get even bigger. Wow.
BREAKING: CHRIS BOWEN ADMITS $25 BILLION SNOWY HYDRO BLOWOUT COULD GO EVEN HIGHER Australia’s biggest renewable energy project is turning into an absolute taxpayer bloodbath, and Energy Minister Chris Bowen has just admitted he has zero control over it. In a shocking exclusive interview with News24, a cornered Bowen finally confessed that the massive $22.2 billion price tag for Snowy Hydro 2.0, which is already tipped to skyrocket to $25 billion, is not “locked in stone” and could blow out even further. When pressed by Trudy McIntosh on whether the cost and the delayed 2029 end date would spiral further, Bowen actually said: “Absolutely, I'm not here to say that anything is locked in stone.” The taxpayer scandal of the century? The original budget was a fraction of this disaster, with the current projection now at $25,000,000,000. The timeline has now been dragged out and completion date has been pushed out until at least late 2029. The Coalition is rightly calling for immediate blood. Shadow Communications Minister Sarah Henderson labeled it “gross mismanagement” and a “real scandal” demanding Anthony Albanese sack Bowen immediately. Shadow Energy Minister Dan Tehan didn’t mince words either: “If a CEO oversaw such maladministration, a board would have no choice but to sack them.” Instead of taking accountability for burning through billions of taxpayer dollars, Bowen deflected, whining about “personal attacks” and trying to shift the blame. If a corporate boss botched a project this badly, they’d be escorted out of the building. Why does Chris Bowen still have a job?

This utter disgrace. Richard Marles. Flogging off defence sites all over Australia. However the worst thing the grub said was the Victoria Barracks is nothing more than a glorified "wine cellar" He said there are a few old generals who like hanging out there. This putrid defense minister needs to go and go today.

BLACKOUT BOWEN HAS MISLED THE PUBLIC Back in February, Chris Bowen told the nation that the Snowy 2.0 project “was back on track and 70% complete.” But it wasn’t. The only honest metric to measure the percentage of the project‘s completion is that total expenditure. The Australian National Audit Office (ANAO) reported expenditure of A$11.1 billion as of 31 March 2026. However, the estimated cost announced on 22 October 2026 is that the updated target cost to complete is A$22.2 billion (and more likely $25 billion). That means back in February, when Bowen was claiming “70% complete,” the truth was that it was actually less than 50% complete. And that doesn’t count the transmission lines, without which Snowy 2.0 can’t function. Bowen’s misleading of the public is highly significant, as there have been constant calls from experts to abandon the project. But if it was 70% complete, then these calls can be dismissed, as the project was close to completion. If Bowen hadn’t misled the public, if the truth was known back in February, that the project was less than 50% complete, that there was at least another $11 billion to spend - plus at least that again for the transmissions lines - the nation could have had an honest debate about the merits of continuing with this white elephant or cutting our losses and abandoning the project. If Bowen was working in the private sector and he told his board that a project he was in charge of was “70% complete” when the truth was it was less than 50% complete, he would be sacked immediately.

ANTHONY ALBANESE LIED TO PARLIAMENT ABOUT HIS $6 MILLION GOLF CLUB GRAB AND HIS OWN OFFICE WAS LINING HIM UP FOR A PHOTO OP DAYS BEFORE HIS SECRET MEMBERSHIP WAS EXPOSED. Anthony Albanese is caught in the headlights again after explosive Freedom of Information (FOI) documents blew the lid off a secret, high level plot to stage a massive media stunt at his inner west golf haven, just five days before his hidden honorary membership was exposed to the public. Here is how the taxpayer funded cover up unraveled: Albanese personally promised a staggering $6.05 million facelift to Marrickville Golf Club during the 2025 election, part of a massive $500M pork barrel bonanza targeting Labor seats. What did he tell Parliament the money was for? Raw sewage and septic fixes. What do the official government briefs actually say? A shiny upgraded bar, alfresco dining, a new pro shop, and a “dog walking station” for his old stomping ground. Leaked emails show Transport Minister Catherine King’s office desperately plotting a glossy photo op for Albanese at the club. A senior adviser eagerly replied: “This is a good one and important locally, would support!” The PR stunt was axed at the eleventh hour when the ABC exposed Albo's decades long, undisclosed honorary membership. While the PM claimed the millions were saving the Cooks River from sewage, Inner West Mayor (and former Albo staffer) Darcy Byrne let slip that the NSW Government was already funding the sewerage work under a different program. Shadow Infrastructure Minister Bridget McKenzie has gone for the throat, declaring: “It is clear the Prime Minister has written a blank cheque to his Marrickville Golf Club and misled the parliament about it!” Albanese has since scrambled to formally decline the membership, but the Senate inquiry is closing in. This may well be Albanese’s last stand as Prime Minister.

This was collated and fed to journalists after Helen Haines had rightfully called out Albanese’s blatant unprecedented handover of 6 million dollars of taxpayer money to a golf course next to one of his properties. Albanese then told parliament the money was for sewerage work. It wasn’t. He is a serial liar. He used taxpayer money to try to smear and silence Helen Haines. It didn’t work because she isn’t corrupt. After the horrendous attack on her by an unhinged maniac, Albanese did a press conference calling Haines a woman of ‘the highest integrity’, ‘a beacon of light’. Albanese must resign now for the sake of Australia. The electorate is on to his disgusting behaviour and no number of sad fools still defending him will change that.
As someone who was critical of Albo’s golf funding deal (pork barrelling by both sides is a joke), I can tell you this PM briefing about Haines is categorically not any sort of dirt file. Anyone who calls this a dirt file, as Peter Van Onselen did, does not have a single clue about how public sector briefings to Ministers work. Either that or they are a rusted-on bleacher-screeching barrow-pusher for one side of politics. Van Onselen’s pieces read like a cadet who has read an offical document for the first time. All the information is completely legitimately gathered, including an attempt to ascertain a pecuniary interest. There are hundreds of these things written every day at state, federal and local government level for ministers of every colour. Stock. Standard. Briefing.
