Episode Details

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is under fire for attending a high-profile dinner hosted by billionaire Felix Lee, whose family faces allegations of tax evasion — and critics are demanding transparency, accusing the government of “cash for access.” While Albanese brushed off questions, calling it “just another dinner,” the event drew scrutiny for its elite attendees, including the Commonwealth Bank CEO and a former state premier. The elder Lee’s family has previously been pursued by the tax office for millions in unpaid taxes, and reports suggest each guest pledged $10,000 to Labor — raising alarms about influence and accountability. With political donations disclosed annually in February, this episode underscores growing concerns over how wealth and power intersect with policymaking.
