‘Noalition’: Albo roasts the opposition for delaying Labor’s housing future fund
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has roasted the opposition for blocking and delaying the Housing Australia Future Fund on 3AW Drive this afternoon.
It comes after the news no houses had been completed since the legislation was passed for the housing fund close to 18 months ago, despite the plan for 30,000 homes to be built within five years.
“We are in a housing crisis, which is why it is completely unacceptable that the ‘Noalition’ as I call them in the Senate, have blocked and delayed the Housing Australia Future Fund,” Albanese told Jacqui Felgate.

“Do you think there’s nothing more annoying for voters than to continually see any government of any persuasion blame the opposition?” Felgate asked the Prime Minister.
“It’s just a fact, that they delayed the legislation, that’s just a fact,” Albanese responded.
Topics such as Donald Trump’s Ukraine comments, the “unpopularity” of the Allan government, and why Albanese went to Daniel Andrews for help in preparation for debates against Peter Dutton were covered in a wide-ranging interview.
