🟠 ALBANESE WEARS A NEPALESE HAT AT A SYDNEY FESTIVAL AND TELLS AUSTRALIANS "DIVERSITY IS OUR STRENGTH" WHILE $325 MILLION IN MULTICULTURAL GRANTS LANDS IN LABOR SEATS 🟠 Nothing says "Prime Minister for all Australians" quite like donning foreign traditional attire while quietly ignoring local heritage. Anthony Albanese pulled on a Nepalese hat to celebrate Tihar in Sydney, reminding voters that diversity is our strength, and proving that when there's $325 million in grant money on the table, Labor is always ready to put on a show. Australians called it cosplay and asked when the Prime Minister last celebrated anything Australian. NSW Premier Chris Minns, Attorney-General Michelle Rowland and Labor MPs Zhi Soon and Ash Ambihaipahar were all there with him. Ambihaipahar's seat of Barton takes in Rockdale, where Nepalese is now the most common ancestry. The Nepal-born population has jumped 74% since the 2021 Census to an estimated 213,580, and Labor seats collected 94% of the $325.77 million in multicultural grants paid out in 2025 to 2026, according to One Nation's analysis of government records. One Nation would scrap the multicultural affairs minister, the office Labor rebuilt in 2025 and the government funded translation services that give migrants free interpreters in around 150 languages.
