00:00
This morning I visited the Governor-General and Her Excellency has accepted my advice
00:11
that an election be held on Saturday, 3rd of May, 2025.
00:17
How do we address the cost of living pressures?
00:24
This is another cost of living relief.
00:26
Where's Albanese?
00:27
There's nowhere to be seen.
00:29
Have you paid a doctor?
00:30
I am, yeah, yeah.
00:31
All they need is this little green card.
00:33
You get 25 cents a litre off petrol, off diesel.
00:36
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:38
I'll tell you what we're going to do in an orderly way.
00:41
How about that?
00:42
People can't have two questions, that's all.
00:44
It's a one question rule.
00:46
Well, it's an everybody question rule.
00:48
I am saving up for a house and so is my sister back.
00:51
You're doing pretty well yourself.
00:53
Why won't you support him a bit and give him a bit of help with getting this house?
00:58
Finish the excellent points I was making.
01:00
We can make Australia great again.
01:02
Is that an ode to Donald Trump?
01:04
No.
01:05
If I said that, I don't even realise I said that, but no.
01:07
You are condemning young people like me to a lifetime of climate disaster.
01:12
Why are you lying to the Australian people about the cost of refuncula?
01:19
I stepped off the stage.
01:20
I didn't fall over on my backside.
01:24
I stumbled.
01:25
That's what happened.
01:26
I laughed about it at the time.
01:28
I laughed about it since.
01:32
Oh, come on in.
01:33
Tell me you were recording for that.
01:38
Is that right?
01:39
Yeah, yeah.
01:41
Australians can't afford three more years like the last three.
01:44
This election is about your future.
01:46
It is about your family's future.
01:48
And it is about our country's future.
01:50
We are determined to keep helping and keep delivering for people under financial pressure.
01:55
That is what drives us.
01:57
That is why we seek a second term.
02:01
The reference I was making shouldn't have been to the president.
02:03
It was in relation to sources from the Proboa government.
02:06
So was that a mistake?
02:07
It was a mistake.
02:09
Who have we got here?
02:10
Baby.
02:11
Baby?
02:12
Don't tell Toto.
02:13
Yes, they're already intimate.
02:15
He doesn't like being referred to as a dog.
02:17
Why?
02:18
He believes he's human.
02:19
I'm having another cuddle.
02:20
Another cuddle.
02:21
Another cuddle.
02:22
That's a nice, beautiful afro.
02:23
I'm jealous.
02:24
Oh!
02:25
Just spit on me!
02:34
Millions of people across the globe are in mourning as tributes continue to flow following
02:39
the death of Pope Francis.
02:41
I will pause my other campaign-related events.
02:45
It's appropriate that there's been a pause in the campaign.
02:54
We feel them still near us in spirit.
03:00
We wish to be worthy of their great sacrifice.
03:04
Excuse me, madam.
03:05
Are you buddies?
03:06
Where are your hands?
03:07
Where are they?
03:08
Ah, there they are.
03:09
There's so many choices here.
03:10
They look like they're always young.
03:11
Come on.
03:12
Hello, Mr. Duck.
03:13
How are you?
03:14
Hello, Mr. Duck.
03:15
How are you?
03:16
And isn't it a drop?
03:17
You're pretty good at this.
03:18
You're pretty good at this.
03:19
You're pretty good at this.
03:20
You're pretty good at this.
03:21
Hello, Mr. Duck.

Hello, Mr. Duck.
03:23
How are you?
03:24

03:26
And isn't it a drop?
03:27

03:28
You're pretty good at this.
