Peter Dutton wishes Anthony Albanese ‘happy retirement’ in cheeky FM radio challenge

Peter Dutton has taken a cheeky swipe at Anthony Albanese’s recent property purchase, saying the $4.3 million NSW Central Coast house was his “retirement home”.

Appearing on Perth’s Nova FM on Tuesday morning, the Opposition Leader took part in a challenge set by hosts Nathan Morris, Nat Locke and Shaun McManus to draw something for the Prime Minister.

Mr Albanese had previously drawn a crude image of Mr Dutton, which the hosts presented to the Opposition Leader.

“We did a thing here where we did a challenge where one of us that was drawing, and that was Albo, was given a butcher’s paper pad, a texta, and then he was given a word, and then I had to stand behind him, and guess what he had drawn . . . the word was Peter Dutton,” Morris said.

“This is an original by Anthony Albanese.”

Taking a framed copy of the portrait, Mr Dutton said: “That’s impressive, and that really sums up the PM’s total skill set there.”

“He’s an overachiever . . . there’s a striking resemblance . . . and the big smile as well I like.”

But the hosts offered the Opposition Leader the chance to response, taking up a pen to draw the Prime Minister’s new home purchase a $4.3 million home in Copacabana, NSW last year.

“This is Copacabana, the retirement home,” Mr Dutton said, writing: “Happy Retirement”.

“What do you think,” Dutton asked.

“You know what, polite but also kicks him in the ******,” Morris said.

Asked about the purchase on Sunday, Mr Albanese denied the property was a sign his three-decades long run in politics was due to end.

“I’ve met someone I want to spend the rest of my life with, and what happens when people make that decision, if they’re in a position to, they go and get a mortgage together,” the Prime Minister said.

“And it’s mortgaged, and I sold another property, a property that I had in order to assist with that, so that down the track … we can have somewhere close to where Jodie grew up, where Jodie’s parents and family all are.

“And it wasn’t a political decision. It was very much a personal one.”

Mr Dutton’s three day trip to Perth came as a Newspoll showed a majority of Australians now believed the most likely outcome from the election was a Coalition Government.
