  Tbh what I find grubby is pretending that this ad was actually attacking Dutton’s wife, and not Dutton himself. And I find Albo’s caving to pressure and strong-arming his party’s other branches grubby.

    I might not remembered her defence had Albo had not conspicuously ordered them to take it down.

    Never mind the sort of attacks that the libs/their propaganda wing are more than happy to level.

    Could it be a cleaver use of the Streisand effect? Or am I giving them too much credit?

  On Monday, Mr Dutton responded to reporting of the meme on social media, saying the Liberal Party he led would never target Anthony Albanese’s partner, Jodie Haydon.

  So, she did an interview and it was accurately quoted. How is that not ok to point out? I hate western politics.

  Dutton is not a monster. He is the embodiment of the banality of evil.

  In essence this is an honourable move from Albo. In reality, as politics stands, the Victorian LP’s action, nor Albo’s, matters not a jot.

    I don’t see strong arming your own party members over a grubby double standard from your opponents is honourable.
