Is Albo going to grow some balls and bring this deadshit home.

It’s embarrassing Smith and Rudd are representing our country on foreign soil with snubs like this.

To be honest, I don’t really know much about this bloke.
Is there anything other than him not wanting to attend a dinner that he’s done for him to be considered a “deadshit”?

Because if that’s the only reason then I feel that’s a bit harsh.

He posts on LU in the Parra Forum. According to Pou, most people who do that are "deadshits" so I think it stems from there....

Lol, yeah good reasoning.

“He doesn’t want to celebrate Australia Day! He must hate Australia!!! Kick him out of the country!!!”
It’s just virtue signalling plain and simple, how long was this fraud in parliament???

Years and years and if Aus day bothered him so much why didn’t he try and start a movement to change it. Instead he waits till he has a cushy high commissioner’s job and now makes a song and dance about it on the world stage. Another fake wanker who really doesn’t give a f**k but it won’t stop him trying to score brownie points with his lefty brethren.

The diggers died at Anzac Cove so that the Australian High Commissioner would be forced to eat dinner on January 26 in London

having a sook about someone not going to dinner sounds like virtue signalling

He is representing our country on foreign soil the least he can do is turn up to an Australia Day Gala dinner not snub the thing that's going to obivously add more division to a day that doesn't need it.

How hard is it.

If he is not happy about it come home and let someone else do the HC job over there that's willing to represent our country in a better light.

Some of these pollies are deadset embarrassing & how they carry on with the perks and shit they get.

you would think it would be more important for him to go to a Britain Day dinner

It certainly isn't hard for some people to find stuff to get upset about

Last time i checked he is paid politician on tax payers money in a cushy High Commissioner job in London.

Now this cowboy over there wants to run his own race.

Its an annual Australian Day event in London that has been happening for 20 years with business & political leaders across Britain/Australia celebrating our National day.

I would say its a pretty important event to attend and not some casual Sunday roast in the middle of winter.

think he is a former politician who now is a public servant

last year the outrage was that this event was being held somewhere else rather than at the high commission - seems the media got quite a bit wrong on that one - https://www.dfat.gov.au/news/correcting-record/corrections-herald-sun-article-17-december

this just seems to be the latest round in virtue signalling for those people that want to force Australians to celebrate January 26 in the "correct" way
