The blokes a thug, but i think your a little off the mark Albo wanted him gone in 2019. Setka was due to stepdown later this year.
When asked about the abrupt resignation, Albanese replied: "Good."
"John Setka has no legitimate place in the Labor movement," the prime minister said at a press conference
"It should be condemned, it should be isolated, should be stamped out."
Mr Albanese moved to expel Mr Setka from the Labor Party in 2019 over accusations he said family violence campaigner Rosie Batty's advocacy had led to men having fewer rights.
Mr Setka rejected the allegations and fought his expulsion from the party in court but was cast out months after being convicted of harassing his now estranged wife.
