Anthony Albanese stepped out Friday morning in his pajamas and a pair of Ugg boots to pick up the newspaper.
The Prime Minister wore his favorite Peter Alexander trousers with cute cartoon rabbits and a retro Newtown Jets t-shirt as he went to collect his documents at 6.03am
He didn’t spend long outside in the cold, misty morning air before returning inside his home in Marrickville, in Sydney’s inner west.
Anthony Albanese stepped out in his pajamas and a pair of Ugg boots to pick up the newspaper on Friday morning.

The new prime minister has not yet moved into Kirribilli House, on Sydney Harbour, because Scott Morrison and his family remain in the residence six days after the election defeat.
However, with Morrison, his wife Jenny and their two daughters returning to their home in the Sutherland Shire, south of Sydney, on Friday, the weekend is likely to be a moving day for Albanese.
Removal vans were seen at The Lodge in Canberra on Thursday.
The 59-year-old’s neighbours, who love having ‘Albo’ on their street, previously told Daily Mail Australia they hope he moves half an hour away, to Kirribilli, to keep his street smart out of the headlines.
“Fingers crossed,” said retired neighbor Jon. “It would be impossible for him to stay here with all the security that is needed as prime minister, but we would be sad to see him go.”
Another neighbor said he even takes out the trash when the family goes on vacation and buys his children Christmas gifts every year.
“He’s a lovely neighbor and very chatty,” said Jane, a mother of two. ‘He is wonderful with children. He always has time for them; “That seems incredible to me.”
Albanese lives in a modest house in Marrickville and owns several other investment properties, some on the same street as his home, and has a real estate portfolio valued at about $5 million.

Albanese, who grew up in an apartment near the Camperdown housing commission, is a life member of the South Sydney Rabbitohs but also attends Newtown Jets home games at Marrickville’s Henson Park.
“Where I grew up, people went to church on Sundays, voted Labor every three years and went to football on Saturdays, whether it was Souths, Newtown or Balmain,” he told Daily Mail Australia during the election campaign.
“One of the things I still do is go to Henson Park to watch Newtown play and we sat on the hill, 8,972 of us, it’s crazy.”
The crowd at all Newtown matches at Henson Park is advertised as being 8,972, the number of fans at the club’s last game before it was expelled from the first grade competition at the end of the 1983 season.
Newtown now plays in the second tier NSW Cup.
Just days after becoming the country’s new leader, Albanese has already had to deal with controversy in his own party, after Tanya Plibersek compared Peter Dutton to the bald Harry Potter villain ‘Voldemort’.
Plibersek, who is expected to become the country’s next education minister following Labour’s historic election victory, said children who had seen the films would be very “afraid” of the former defense minister when they saw him on television. .
“I’m saying he looks a bit like Voldemort and we’ll see if he can do what he promised the last time he ran for leader, which is smile more,” Ms Plibersek told 4BC radio.
Sunrise host Natalie Barr questioned Albanese on Thursday about the brutal insult against Dutton, pointing out that there would be “I would pay hell” if a man made fun of a female MP’s appearance.

The new prime minister responded: “She already apologized.”
“There are some comments made by the former prime minister about my appearance that you may remember as part of the election campaign,” he said.
“We shouldn’t refer to people’s appearance, let’s discuss political differences.”
