Press conference - Ollera Creek
ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Well, this is one of the occasions where I won't begin by saying that I'm glad to be here, because I wish this wasn't happening. But at the worst of times, what we see is the best of the Australian character. And here what we see is Queenslanders, whether they be emergency services personnel, whether it be our police and fire services, the volunteers through the SES, and of course our Australian Defence Force personnel – particularly those based at the barracks here in Townsville – but right throughout Australia.
