Kevin Rudd, Donald Trump and Anthony Albanese
Digest more
US President Trump has told Kevin Rudd that “all is forgiven” after a tense moment at the White House when he was reminded of his previous attacks before he was appointed as Australia’s ambassador.
Opposition Leader Sussan Ley has been contradicted by another senior Liberal over her call for Kevin Rudd to be sacked.
Sussan Ley appears increasingly at odds with her party room, following ongoing praise of Australian ambassador Kevin Rudd's performance in Washington.
Sussan Ley has said Kevin Rudd’s position as Australia’s ambassador to the US is “untenable” after Donald Trump gave the former prime minister a verbal lashing.
Sussan Ley’s partyroom rival Andrew Hastie says Australia’s US ambassador Kevin Rudd “got the job done”, in a veiled swipe at the Opposition Leader who had been calling for Dr Rudd’s removal.
Former prime minister Malcoim Turnbull says any talk of removing Kevin Rudd as ambassador to the United States should be ignored.
While the US president showered the PM with praise at the White House, his feelings for Australia’s man in Washington were very different.
Liberal MP Andrew Hastie has added to backbench dissent against Opposition Leader Sussan Ley, contradicting her calls for US Ambassador Kevin Rudd to be fired.
