Jodie Hopes It Won't Be Too 'Difficult' For The Prime Minister To Bunk With Toto From Now On

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has offered a rather imaginative apology for referring to the 2021 Australian of the Year and child safety advocate Grace Tame "difficult".

Albanese made the comment when asked to give a one-word response to a rapid-fire list buzzwords at a NewsCorp event in Melbourne, in one of the greatest own-goals since he decided to call a referendum at the height of a cost-of-living crisis.

This language has warranted immediate backlash from Australian women, many who are starting to see shades of former Prime Minister Scott Morrison - a man who nuked his own career and government with a string of similar clangers.

However, the difference between Prime Minister Albanese and Scotty From Marketing is their immediate responses to such mindlessly offensive fuck ups.

While Morrison was inclined to immediately background his feminist critics to Murdoch journalists in an attempt to delegitimise their causes and damage their reputations, Prime Minister Albanese has a reputation for groveling for forgiveness.

The PM has since explained he was referring to Grace Tame's "difficult life" - as the survivor of childhood abuse and a subsequent beacon for the hurtful and dangerous vitriol spewed by Australian misogynists.

"If there was any misinterpretation, then I certainly apologise," Mr Albanese told reporters.

It is not yet known if Grace Tame has accepted this apology, but she has since addressed the sledge on social media with a post claiming that "'Difficult' is the misogynist's code for a woman who won't comply. History tends to call her 'courageous'.''

Meanwhile, Albanese must now contend with the white hot rage of female voters, including but definitely not limited to, his new wife Jodie Haydon.

Arriving home from his fruitless attempt to mingle with the NewsCorp journalists who are now elated to have stitched him up with a nationwide political scandal, Albanese noticed a sleeping bag and pillow had been placed next to the doghouse at the Kirribilli residence.

Jodie has decided that her husband needs some time to think about his comments, and that kind of self-reflection would best take place while bunking down with the Prime Ministerial cavoodle 'Toto'.

If that's not too difficult
