Can I thank you for the welcome onto your country.

It is one of the great honours my life to be involved in this campaign.

I came here after I became leader of the Labor Party and committed right here with Linda Burney to hold a referendum in our first term for a constitutionally enshrined Voice to our Parliament, and that is what we are doing.

I thank the dancers for sharing your culture, the oldest continuous culture on earth, with those of us who are privileged to share this great island continent of ours with the oldest continuous culture on earth.

• The Palaszczuk Queensland Government has confirmed it will deliver 600 social homes with more than $398 million from the Albanese Federal Government’s Social Housing Accelerator
• 80 per cent of homes will be delivered outside of Brisbane with many in regional, rural and remote parts of the state

A federal funding injection from the Albanese Government will see the Palaszczuk Government build another 600 homes across Queensland, adding to the state’s record rollout of social and affordable homes.

SARAH MACDONALD, HOST: We're starting the morning with the Prime Minister of Australia, Anthony Albanese. Good morning to you.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning, Sarah. Good to chat with you.

MACDONALD: Good to have you too. What a morning. The Middle East again seeing war and carnage and we've been talking a little bit about that on AM. I know Penny Wong has spoken to the Foreign Minister of Israel. Who have you spoken to and what's your latest thoughts on the conflict?

NATALIE BARR, HOST: Joining me now from his Parliament House office is Prime Minister Anthony Albanese. Good morning to you.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning, Nat.

BARR: This is obviously very unnerving news for the whole world, isn't it, Prime Minister? Decades of tension in the Middle East exploding. How's Australia going to respond?

CHRIS O'KEEFE, HOST: Prime Minister, thanks for your time.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good afternoon, Chris. Greetings from Port Lincoln.

O'KEEFE: Any update on how Australians are in Israel at the moment?

I begin by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land on which we meet and I pay my respects to their elders past, present and emerging.

I'm delighted to be in Port Lincoln and very grateful to everyone who has made me so welcome here today.

You live in a special part of Australia, the tens of thousands of tourists you attract each year speak for the beauty of this place and I'm sure the quality of the seafood.

Your community isn't just a magnet for visitors, it's also an engine of our national prosperity.

JULES SCHILLER, HOST: I'm joined now by the Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese. Welcome, Prime Minister.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good afternoon. Greetings from beautiful Port Lincoln.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: I have been here before many a time, particularly as Minister, I, as the Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development Minister. We funded refurbishment of the Royal Flying Doctor Service here. We funded also some heritage buildings and upgrades. There was an arts precinct here as well that we funded, as well as some roads around the district. And prior to that, I was the Water Shadow Minister, at a time where the Menindee lakes didn't look like what they do now as well.

DAVID PENBERTHY, HOST: Prime Minister, good morning to you.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning, and Port Lincoln is absolutely stunning this morning.

PENBERTHY: What brings you to Port Lincoln, PM?

KARL STEFANOVIC, HOST: Let's bring in Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, live now in Canberra. PM, good morning to you. It's been a dark, dark 48 hours, hasn't it?
