‘Can’t comment’: Anthony Albanese dodges awkward Andrew Charlton question

Anthony Albanese has been grilled about potential hypocrisy over a legal oversight by his candidate for Parramatta, Andrew Charlton.

Today The Daily Telegraph reported that Dr Charlton, a former economic adviser to prime minister Kevin Rudd, had listed a rental in Woollahra, owned by his wife, as his place of residence.

Dr Charlton was enrolled at neither his current property in Parramatta nor his previous residence in Bellevue Hill.
“We both lead very busy lives and this was an oversight, for which I take responsibility and apologise.”
This follows a controversy involving the LNP’s candidate for Lilley, Vivian Lobo, and calls from Labor for him to be disendorsed.

Mr Lobo has been accused of claiming to live in Lilley while allegedly residing outside the electorate. The Australian Electoral Commission has referred the matter to the Australian Federal Police.

Mr Albanese previously called that a “very serious issue”.

At a media conference in Darwin this morning, the Labor leader was asked about the situation involving his own candidate.

Mr Albanese has no option but to disendorse Dr Forgetful and refer the doctor to a federal ICAC. It might be more than malfeasance.
