Two environmental activists on Wednesday heckled Australia’s left-wing Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, interrupting his speech at an event in Melbourne. [some emphasis, links added]
The incident occurred at the Future Victoria Summit, a one-day event by the Victorian Chamber of Commerce and Industry and the Herald-Sun newspaper. Sky News Australia chief anchor Kieran Gilbert served as the event’s host.
Sky News reports Albanese had just started his speech when he was interrupted by a young man who yelled at him over gas companies.
Footage of the incident published by local outlets shows the young man holding a small sign that reads, “No new coal or gas.”
“You’re burning my future. You’re burning young people’s futures,” the young activist yelled at Albanese as he was being taken away by security.
Moments later, Albanese was interrupted a second time by a woman who stood up near a table and demanded that the prime minister legislate “to end fossil fuel.”
“No more coal and gas, no more coal and gas,” the woman yelled as she was taken out of the room. She also held a sign with the same words written on it.
According to an official transcript of Albanese’s speech, the leftist Labor Party leader began his address by “acknowledging the traditional owners of the land on which we meet, and I pay my respects to elders past, present and emerging.”
Albanese touted some of his administration’s economic and healthcare-related policies.
He also asserted he is “determined” to be the prime minister who starts a high-speed rail project for Australia, with a first stage that would go from Newcastle to Sydney. …
The activists’ angry interruption occurred just hours after Albanese was evacuated from The Lodge, the official residence in Canberra, on Tuesday night (local time) following a bomb threat scare.
It also follows other moments where the Australian public have made clear Albanese is not welcome.

What these idiots were shouting tells a lot of how little they really know about what keeps our communities functioning. The need to read Professor Vaclav Smil’s book “How the world really works”.
As an Australian, I would like readers to know that the prime minister we have today is the worst person ever to be in that job. He is a habitual liar. He is a marxist. He is a friend of Xi Jinping. He is the most ill equipped in intelligence and understanding of life for the average Australian. He is an activist at heart. His government is running up “more” debt while productivity is going down. All they talk about today is taxing whatever they can to rake in more cash from our people. He is running down the Australian Defence Forces, while Sec War Hegseth has asked for an increase in defence spending. I suspect our government is misleading our American friends as to what they are really doing regarding defence investment.
Summed up, Australia is in trouble because of this current socialist government.
Just like here in the US you suffer from the ignorance of too many voters who knee-jerk vote for the party they always supported.
Eco-Freaks are just a whole bunch of total idiots why else have they fallen for this whole Global Warming/Climate Change Scam they must use Gore and DiCaprio’s Snake Oil to rub on themselves while their doing their morning meditations
