“And I am sure that if I was going people would be saying why aren’t I attending Parliament,” he said.

“I have a very busy schedule of Parliament then… international conferences then back to Parliament.”

Labor would “end the climate wars”. Hmmm. COP27 is the United Nations climate conference, which is being held in Egypt from November 6 to 18. You might remember the ‘yuge COP26 summit in Glasgow last year. The goal of COP27 is now to “build on” the outcomes of COP26, . Instead of attending, Albanese is sending the Climate Change and Energy Minister  in his stead. But given the fact the environment was a not-insignificant part of , it seems pretty wild the PM won’t be going. You might remember Albanese himself rightfully slammed when he said he. Morrison then backflipped on that decision. Albanese has defended his decision to stay home because this COP will be focused on “implementation”, whereas COP26 was about establishing new policies. Per , Albanese told reporters on Wednesday he “can’t be in all places at once”. I won’t lie, making up hypothetical people to be mad at you doesn’t seem like the best debate device but hey ho. It’s also kind of ironic given the fact with the Pacific Islands. So like… surely it’s a good idea for the PM to attend this year’s conference and show we’re committed? The new British PM (the one who’s, not the one who was ) was criticised after with domestic affairs to attend COP27. He then U-Turned on that decision and will now be at the conference. I’m giving a little side-eye to Albanese here.
