Anthony Albanese responds to a question from Michelle Landry on funding for a road project near Rockhampton during question time in parliament. The prime minster speaks about work done on the Yeppen flood plain before the opposition leader, Peter Dutton, appears to interject, calling the word ‘Yeppoon’ across the chamber. Albanese again responds, more loudly than before: ‘Yeppoon’s a different place.’ 

Michelle Landry, the member for Capricornia, has accused Anthony Albanese of ‘bullying’, saying she left the chamber distressed and ‘humiliated’ after the prime minister answered her question.
