“Something quite new for an Australian Prime Minister.”

I hope they do move their embassy, it’s important!

Something to look forward to! Australia has been a great friend to the U.S.A. in some very important ways.

It wont make him popular with the ultra left but I am praying that God will honour Him if he does this and change the fortunes of the conservatives who are currently not looking great for the next election!
