The Albo Diaries - Week 14

The Prime Minister keeps a diary. He calls it his 'legacy document'. You are not supposed to be hearing this. He's slipping in the polls. One Nation has passed Labor. And he's become convinced someone has bugged the only room he has left. This week: a budget the young didn't read, a ladder quietly pulled up behind him, a smoke alarm mistaken for a listening device, and the growing suspicion that the leak might be coming from inside the house. "It's not lying. It's the opposite of lying. It's growth." Written, performed and produced by Rupert Degas. No ads, no sponsor, no editor, no boss. Read the full diary and subscribe Coming up: for the next three Tuesdays, selected excerpts from Albo's Diaries - the university years, the Rudd-Gillard knife, and the night he finally got the job. Normal service resumes Tuesday 7 July. Get full access to Rupert Degas at rupertdegas.substack.com/subscribe [https://rupertdegas.substack.com/subscribe?utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=CTA_4]

The Albo Diaries - Week 13

The Prime Minister keeps a diary he thinks no one is reading. This week: seven women get off a plane he absolutely did not send, he booms his contempt for ISIS straight over the head of the one bloke it was about, the whole world watches Canberra fail to define what a woman is, and Pauline takes the lead in the polls. Written and performed by Rupert Degas. No ads, no sponsor, no editor, no boss. Buy me a coffee or upgrade to paid to keep it that way.

The Albo Diaries - Week 12

"The week the AI got me to look kind". The memes. The walk-away. Hughesy turning on me. Minns going for the throat. And Pauline catching me in MY colour. The Prime Minister keeps a diary. He calls it his 'legacy document'. You are not supposed to be reading this.

The Albo Diaries - Week 11

The Albo Diaries — Week 11 "We brought lived experience into politics. Now it owns half the apartments in Brunswick." The Prime Minister keeps a diary. He thinks no one is reading it. That's why he says everything. This week: a budget that breaks a fifty-time election promise, a cabinet that owns sixty-odd investment properties between them, and a man quietly thrilled about a gala in New York while the country reads the fine print. Written and performed by Rupert Degas.
