The private diary of Australia's Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese. Leaked weekly. Read by the man himself. (Not really.)

The season finale. After 30 weeks, the Prime Minister finally has his Global Citizen Award. It's 3am, he's in his trackie dacks, and he can't find anywhere to put it.
A selfie with Trump. Four minutes with Andy Burnham. A Newspoll he'd rather not discuss. And one last look back through the diary he insists nobody reads.
Stay to the end for a word from me about what comes next. The Albo Diaries goes monthly from here, with longer episodes, whenever the globe needs him.
Written and performed by Rupert Degas.

The Albo Diaries - Week 29
The Prime Minister is in a hotel room with a notepad and four words. The speech is due Wednesday. The verb is the problem.
This week: an award for being a global citizen, a button he already had in his pocket, 27 seconds with the sound off, and a state dinner he isn't at.
Written and performed by Rupert Degas. New entries every Tuesday at 8am.
No ads, no sponsor, no editor, no boss.

The Albo Diaries - Week 28
The Albo Diaries - Week 28
There's a form on the desk. It wants to know what he owns, what he belongs to, and what he's been a member of for fifteen years without noticing.
This week: a golf club nobody told him about. A cartoon he's in and didn't agree to. A new club he's founding, with a mailing list. Eleven honest seconds he can't reproduce. And a rather large conclusion reached in front of an open fridge.
The Albo Diaries is the private diary of Anthony Albanese, Prime Minister of Australia (for now). He calls it his legacy document. He thinks nobody is reading it. His office describes it as a fabrication, but his office describes most things as a fabrication, so make of that what you will.
