Angry farmers on tractors chase Albanese out of town

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was dramatically chased out of Ballarat by angry farmers in tractors after the ‘Bush Summit’, as protests erupted over the government’s emergency services levy and “renewable energy” rollout.

Footage showed his motorcade pursued along the Midland Highway, while dozens of trucks, utes, and tractors circled the Civic Hall with signs reading “scrap the tax” and “stop Labor’s towers.”

Nationals Senator Bridget McKenzie joined protesters on a tractor, accusing the Albanese of ignoring regional communities.

Inside the summit, Albanese faced jeers when defending renewables, insisting he would “continue to engage” but refusing to “bulls**t people” with false promises on coal or nuclear.
