Reference :- Sky News anchor , Paul Murray has updated his nickname for our new Prime Minister .

 Reference :-   Paul Murray now calls " each way albo " by a new nickname . 


Dear Paul , 

                     Without doubt a charming nickname is one way of showing one's respect for somebody in high office .  Now that Mr Albanese is the leader of the country an update of his nickname does seem to be warranted , and we see that you have decided to run with   " aussie Joe " . 

Personally , I like the sound of it , although Ken junior reckons you should clear it with the former heavyweight boxer " aussie Joe Bugner " who could well knock your block off if he disapproves .   Sure , you are a heavyweight yourself , but you don't appear to be in peak condition for a fight . 

Anyway , on the topic of nicknames , the lads at the Sky Reply have decided to nickname you after a character in Star Wars , so from now on they will refer to you as " Murray the Hutt " .  Not being a fan of inauthentic Hollywood science fiction myself , I have no idea what that means , although I suspect it might be a cryptic reference to your man cave . 

Finally , let me say that I did like the way you saved face when you interviewed four commentators in a row who said they had been impressed by the way Mr Albanese .... sorry , I mean  " each way Albo "  ....wait .... I mean " aussie Joe "  , had performed at his first international summit . It looked like they had you on your back foot against the ropes until you hit back with that clever retort  " it was impossible for anyone to screw it up " .  Sheer brilliance . I can't imagine anybody screwing up at a meeting of national leaders , since everybody is too polite . You would hardly expect the leader of one country to call the leader of another a liar , for example , unless severely provoked .  And who would be incompetent enough to incite that sort of response ? 

That's the thing about international diplomacy , any idiot could do it . 

Your comrade , Ken
