Anthony Albanese has responded to his Sydney tenant who begged the Prime Minister not to make him homeless after serving him with an eviction notice.
Jim Flanagan, 45, has lived in one of Albanese’s investment properties in the inner west Sydney suburb of Dulwich Hill for four years, but has now been given 90 days to pack up and leave because the Prime Minister wants to sell the house.
The bar owner made his eviction order public Wednesday, calling it a “crippling blow.”
This despite Albanese reducing Flanagan and his then-partner’s pandemic rent to $680 per week, an amount that has not been increased since.
But now the Prime Minister has hit back, claiming he has been a “more than fair landlord”.

“I had it in the property and the rent was about half the market rent,” Albanese told ABC Radio National presenter Patricia Karvelas.
More to come.
