The comments drew criticism, with Senator Sarah Henderson calling them ‘disrespectful to women, embarrassing to Australians and demeaning to the office of Prime Minister’.
Albanese issued an apology, saying ‘I apologise unequivocally for the comments’. The incident has sparked debate about the role of leaders in respecting women and maintaining a professional image.
