Labor Opposition leader Anthony Albanese who wants to vaccinate the entire population by any means got quite twitchy when PM Morrison did not outright condemn the gallows after it made an appearance at the huge Melbourne Freedom Rally

“It is the role of political leaders to explain why health measures are necessary. When the Prime Minister gave an answer in which he went through the violence that had been exhibited in Melbourne and correctly said that that was not appropriate he then always goes on to say ‘but’,” Mr Albanese said.

“And he then goes on to speak about choice and various issues that he tries to say that the objections are about, but of course the key to more freedom and opening up is people getting vaccinated.

“What we need when you have things like gallows being dragged through the streets of Melbourne you need to be able to just say ‘I condemn it full stop’.”
