The "assertion" that Prime Minister Anthony Albanese imitated the Japanese prime minister's breasts during a podcast interview "is incorrect", a spokesperson for him has told SBS News. During Albanese's appearance on the podcast, Osborne asked the prime minister what the "most crap gift you've ever received on an overseas jaunt" was. Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi visited Australia in May, meeting with Anthony Albanese. The podcast comments have sparked renewed controversy after Yamagami's commentary was published in The Australian on Monday. "They were insulting and the prime minister should make a personal apology," Taylor said.
