Prime Minister Anthony Albanese slammed the Liberal Party for an incident which occurred on election day last year, describing it as one of the most “disgraceful manipulations” in Australian politics.

A text message was sent by the Liberal Party on the day of the 2022 federal election urging Australians to vote for the Coalition after an illegal boat was intercepted off the west coast of Christmas Island.

“I seem to remember millions of Australians getting a text message on election day, not when we were the government, when they were the government,” Mr Albanese said during Question Time on Thursday. “It’s true that perhaps the Minister wasn’t the one who authorised it, perhaps the other Minister for Home Affairs was the one who authorised it.”
