TANYA PLIBERSEK, MINISTER FOR THE ENVIRONMENT AND WATER & MEMBER FOR SYDNEY: We're here on the land of the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation, and the place we're standing on right now is called Bennelong Point. It's named for a man who was the communicator between the first British settlers and the Aboriginal people who lived on and around Sydney Harbour all those years ago. Bennelong played a special role here in Sydney and he later went to England and played that role in England as well, communicating between Aboriginal Australia and white Australia even then.

I begin by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land on which we meet and I pay my respects to elders past, present and emerging.

I am so proud to lead a Government committed to Constitutional Recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people through a Voice.

And I am grateful to be in the presence of a union that has thrown its considerable weight behind the Yes vote. Behind this chance of a fairer, more united Australia.

It’s an honour to be here with you all tonight. I particularly want to acknowledge the leadership of Graeme Kelly.

I begin by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land on which we meet and I pay my respects to their elders past, present and emerging.

I am proud to lead a Government committed to Constitutional Recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, through a Voice.

And I want to thank the Business Council of Australia for your longstanding support of this cause.

For making the very straightforward point that Australia needs to do better in Indigenous health and housing and employment and education.

We are pleased to announce the appointment of Justice Stephen Gageler AC as the fourteenth Chief Justice of the High Court of Australia. Justice Gageler will commence as Chief Justice on 6 November 2023 upon the retirement of Chief Justice Susan Kiefel AC.

BRANDY, HOST: Anthony Albanese, welcome to Breakfast with Vossy and Brandy.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning. It will indeed be a very, very big night. This is a sporting team that has captured the imagination of the entire country.

LAURA TINGLE, HOST: Your first Labor Conference as PM, the first Labor in power in more than a decade. Yesterday, you had a National Cabinet meeting of wall-to-wall Labor mainland governments. The Opposition is wallowing in the polls, yet the overwhelming messages of the Conference from your own Party, that you aren't doing enough, whether it be on housing, climate, energy. Should voters be wondering whether you are ambitious enough with what you're trying to achieve in Government?

Today our nation will pause to mark Vietnam Veterans’ Day, the key commemoration in this 50th anniversary year of the end of Australia’s involvement in the Vietnam War.

Thousands of Australians will gather at the Vietnam Forces Memorial in Canberra, and across the country, to honour the service and sacrifice of our Vietnam veterans.

On 18 August 1966, Australians and New Zealanders were outnumbered 10 to one in the battle of Long Tan.

I would like to acknowledge all those serving men and women who are with us today and all the veterans who are with us today.

It is a great honour for me to be here with you.

I want to also acknowledge my parliamentary colleague and friend Shayne Neumann for the outstanding work that he does on an ongoing basis as a representative of this local community that he is so passionate about.

To the Mayor and other dignitaries who are here and particularly to the officials of the RSL, thank you for the invitation to share this important day with you.

PAUL CAMPION, HOST: The Prime Minister Anthony Albanese joins us this morning. Good morning, Prime Minister. How are you?

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning. Good to be with you.

CAMPION: Now you're in town for the Vietnam Veterans' Day, the 50th anniversary of the cessation of hostilities. What are your plans today?

LAURA JAYES, HOST: What deals have you done to appease the left on AUKUS? How much is it going to cost you?
