MURRAY JONES, HOST: Well, as we know, the Federal Election for 2022 was a tough campaign and having spent a bit of time with Albo, I know some of the time that he had to spend in Opposition. It was a tough, tough gig, it really was. And of course, he got across the line, straight to Quad and you know, I think it's certainly been a solid solid game. I mean, he probably needed a bit of time off. And I know he copped a bit of stick just a few weeks ago for taking some time off.

RYAN OLIVE, RAGLAN STATION: Hello everyone, I’m Ryan Olive and today we're here at Raglan Station, which is our family's farm. We've owned it since 1986. I'd like to welcome the Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, and our Minister for Ag, Murray Watt And I just like to say thank you for coming. Thanks for taking the time to be here today. And I'll hand over to you.

CLENNELL: We've seen this report that $828 million worth of industry grants was signed off while Scott Morrison was acting as Industry Minister. What can you tell us about this? I noticed his spokesman saying he could have done this even if he hadn't sworn himself in as Industry Minister.

National Skills Week is an opportunity to celebrate Australia’s diverse skills set, but comes at a time when our nation is in the grip of a skills crisis.

A robust skills and training sector is critical to driving a productive workforce - this will deliver a stronger economy and more affordable goods and services.

Owing to a decade of inaction, Australia is experiencing a serious labour supply shortage and some of the most acute skills shortages of any country in the OECD.

The Albanese Government is taking immediate action to address this crisis.

ANNASTACIA PALASZCZUK, PREMIER OF QUEENSLAND: Well, it is great to have the Prime Minister in town. And a lot has been said about Cross River Rail, but unless you get underneath and see exactly what's happening, you can see it is a transformational project. 7,000 jobs over the life of the project, over 2,600 people at the moment currently being employed on the project over 15 different sites. And, of course, as the vast nation that we are, this will be a transformational project, especially leading into the Olympics. It'll be a beautiful walkway to the Gabba Stadium.

STEVE AUSTIN, HOST: The current Prime Minister, the man who defeated Scott Morrison, at the federal election is Anthony Albanese and Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is in Brisbane today. And a short while ago, he joined me here at the ABC studio, and I asked him whether he's wasting his time attacking a former Prime Minister, when there are major contemporary problems to tackle, like today's figures that show wages growth in Australia is sluggish and half the rate of inflation.

PRIME MINISTER ANTHONY ALBANESE: Good to be here. You haven't changed the song

HOST: No.

PRIME MINISTER: That's good.

HOST: No we haven't. It's been a few months, how are you enjoying being the top job of Australia?

LINDA BURNEY, MINISTER FOR INDIGENOUS AUSTRALIANS: Good afternoon. We are on the beautiful Thursday Island in the Torres Strait. I'm here with Prime Minister of Australia, Anthony Albanese, and also Nita Green who's a Senator for Queensland. We've had a fabulous morning meeting with community groups, including the Torres Strait Regional Council, and listening and talking about the Voice to Parliament. I'll hand over to the Prime Minister.

SYLVIA TABUA, HOST: Hello and welcome back to Radio 4MW to this special broadcast that we have today. And we have been waiting patiently for our Prime Minister to join us. So, this afternoon I'd like to welcome Prime Minister of Australia, the Honourable Anthony Albanese MP. And welcome, Prime Minister. It's a pleasure to have you here at radio 4MW today on lovely Waiben.

ALLY LANGDON, HOST: Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is in the Torres Strait speaking to remote communities about an Indigenous Voice to Parliament. But the focus this morning is Bali. Prime Minister, good morning.

PRIME MINISTER ANTHONY ALBANESE: Good morning Ally.

LANGDON: We appreciate your time this morning. Can I ask for your reaction to Bali Bombing terrorist Umar Patek walking free from prison just weeks from the twentieth anniversary. Did you know about it?
