HOST: Brandy, has come in on his day off. He is here right now. Brandy, looking well. How you doing?

HOST: Oh gee, it's good to be with you, two. It's a real treat. Friday morning it was my RDO, but being the political correspondent that I am for our program, we've got a very special guest, so I thought I'd just drop in anyway.

MICK MOLLOY, HOST: This is a great announcement and I'm so pleased to have the Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese on the program this morning to talk us through his plans for Leichhardt Oval. These ovals, they're more than just blades of grass, MG. They're meeting places. It's fields of drama for local people at a local level, and this is a breakthrough. Thank you for joining us this morning, Prime Minister. Talk us through and congratulations on your plans for Leichhardt Oval.

MARK GEYER, HOST: Morning, Albo.

LOUISE MILLER-FROST, MEMBER FOR BOOTHBY: Hi everyone. I'm Louise Miller-Frost, I'm the Federal Member for Boothby. I'd like to welcome you all to Boothby, but particularly I would like to welcome the Prime Minister here to Boothby, the Premier, and of course Colin Stirling, who's the Vice-Chancellor, here in this fantastic building, best views to the city.

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

It is such a pleasure to be with you today to open one more element of Australia’s better future – a future we will make here, together.

I’d like to thank Flinders University for inviting me here. And of course Premier Malinauskas, for once again hosting me in your great state.

KAREN MIDDLETON, HOST: Today, I sit down with Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese. There’s a sense that the contest is sharpening between him and Peter Dutton, as the Labor Government works on crafting the offer for the next election. That’s campaign language for getting voters to focus on the choice they face. So, how do the resurgent climate wars fit in?

GORDON REID, MEMBER FOR ROBERTSON: Good afternoon everybody and thank you all so much for coming. I'll begin by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land upon which we meet and pay my respects to all elders past, present and emerging, and recognise that the land upon which we learn, love and play always was and always will be Aboriginal land.

The Albanese Government is making critical investments in Central Coast transport and infrastructure, improving road safety and building thriving communities. 

At the 2022 election, we committed $2.5 million to fully fund a new building for the Kincumber Roos Soccer Club.

This includes a new clubhouse, change and bathrooms, canteen and carpark – a better, safer space to bring the community together.

Along with community infrastructure, we’re investing in roads to improve safety and reduce congestion.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Today's breakthrough represents major progress for Western Sydney. This project will transform the way Sydney operates.  For too long, everything has looked towards the CBD and towards the centre. What this airport will do with the Aerotropolis is make sure that Sydney doesn't just look in, it looks out. It looks out to the western suburbs of Sydney, where jobs have been created through this project. But importantly, this will be a considerable boost to the productivity, livability and sustainability of Sydney.

Sydney Metro to Western Sydney Airport is one step closer, with tunnel boring machines (TBMs) Catherine, Eileen and Peggy having completed their historic journeys today.

This project will become the transport spine of Western Sydney, connecting the Western Sydney Airport and Aerotropolis at Bradfield to the wider Sydney rail network at St Marys.

With boring near complete, the project will enter its next stage – the construction of six world-class stations along the 23-kilometre track.

THOMAS ORITI, HOST: The Opposition Leader, Peter Dutton, says he won't commit to a climate change target for 2030, saying people want politicians to focus on the cost of living. The Prime Minister says he doesn't think Australians want another election fought on climate change and that they'd elected him to get on with the job. And the Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, joins us on ABC News Radio now. Prime Minister, good morning. Thanks for your time.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning. Thanks for having me back on the program.
