Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has come under fire after being seen wearing a Joy Division T-shirt upon his return from Washington. Opposition Leader Sussan Ley criticized Albanese in Parliament, highlighting the band's name's origins linked to a Nazi concentration camp and accusing him of showing poor judgment, especially amid rising antisemitism in Australia. Ley argued that Albanese was aware of the controversial history behind the band's name, referencing a previous podcast where he discussed it. The incident has sparked debate over symbolism and sensitivity in public life as Albanese attends the summit in Malaysia.
