CANBERRA — Anthony Albanese may now be “open to conversations” about a federal royal commission into the Bondi terror attack — a sudden flexibility emerging after weeks of firmly saying no and a marathon shredding session that reportedly left staff exhausted.
For the first time in a month, Penny Wong was spotted at the office, blinking at a pile of half-shredded reports, while Tony Bourke is said to be suffering mild tinnitus after pulling a week-long stint on the shredder.
Sources say the PM’s change of tone conveniently gives NSW Premier Chris Minns an out, allowing Albanese to appear cooperative without calling it a backflip.
