And what this election is going to be about is who is best placed to secure this economic recovery and ensure that we can stand up for Australia's interests, particularly in a part of the world, which is becoming increasingly uncertain.

You've got to have the strength to stand up for Australia and stand up for the policies that are needed to secure this recovery and keep Australians safe …. Langdon: But when a world leader and a former Prime Minister call you a liar, and whether that's true or not, you must be concerned that that will stick? Prime Minister: Well, no. I see Anthony Albanese backed in the Chinese Government and a number of others in having a crack at me as well.

I mean, that's up for him. What I'm always going to do is stand up for Australia's interests. And whether that's making sure we make the right decisions about what submarines Australia needs to defend our interests or what's the right set of climate policies to protect jobs in rural and regional areas and the suburbs of our major cities, I'm always going to be standing up for Australia.

I'm not seeking to pander to others in other places and try and impress them. I have one audience and that's the Australian people. And I have to do the right thing for them. And that often means you've got to be strong on these things and you've got to be prepared to cop the flak and the sledges that they come from, whether it's from Anthony Albanese or elsewhere. Langdon: I'll tell you what, over the last couple of weeks you've had to have broad shoulders.

There's been a few coming in from different directions. So we've got the likes of Matt Canavan, he's going to cross the floor on it. One Nation thinks it's a waste of money. You'll need Labor's support and Anthony Albanese told us this morning that you don't have it at this point. So is it dead before it even gets started? Prime Minister: Well, it's important that we do do it, and Labor should support it.

They've already voted against, in the Parliament, us being able to invest in carbon capture and storage. Now this is an important technology. Not just me saying it, President Biden is saying it, Bill Gates is saying it. These are the technologies that actually will get you to net zero by without having to put taxes on, without telling people what to do. See, the Australian way that we're getting emissions down, and it's important to recognise Australia's emissions are down by more than 20 per cent.

There are only four countries in the G20 that has a better record than that. And when you look at our emissions reduction as a share of our economy, only the UK has, we rank second in the G We've got the highest rate of rooftop solar in the world.

And so Australians are getting on and doing it. But we're doing it, not by telling them what to do and taxes. That's the Labor way. The Liberal-Nationals way is to invest in this technology, so we'll be able to hit those marks and let the entrepreneurs, the risk takers, the scientists, the manufacturers, they're the ones who are going to make this work.

Not governments getting together and telling everybody what to do. That's Labor's approach. Langdon: It's very strange hearing a Coalition leader put climate change front and centre of an election. Electric cars, do you think we'll see any more of Bill Shorten's policies in the lead up to the election?

Prime Minister: But you know, who knows what their policies are. Because, you know, it's after COP26 now. We still don't know what their target is. We still have no idea how they think they're going to get to net zero by They're always happy to be rubbishing our plans, but our plans are about backing Australians in the decisions they want to make, not telling them what to do.

So if he doesn't like our plans, he must be wanting to tell people what to do and put taxes on them. Because that's what we've seen before. I mean, their electric vehicles policy was about pushing up the price of petrol to force people to change.

That's not our view. I'm not going to go and send lots of taxpayers money to multinational car companies to bolster their profits so they can try and sell cars in Australia. Langdon: So when are we going to see your modelling?

When are we going to see that, the modelling? Hey, I want to talk to you, too, about Paul Keating. It was an extraordinary defence of China yesterday saying it's not a threat. Is he out of line? Prime Minister: Well, I don't think he's out of line with a lot of people in the Labor Party, he's certainly out of line with what our Government's policy is, and we certainly don't share that view. As people know, we've taken a very strong position here in the Indo-Pacific and we've taken a very strong stance standing up for Australia's interests.

And we've worked closely with our allies and our partners right across the region, not just the United States, but of course, Japan and India and the many nations of ASEAN who we work closely with, to make sure that we aren't pushed around in this part of the world. And that's why, you know, I said at the start, how we secure Australia's interests in our part of the world, you've got to be strong. You've got to be able to stand up for it.

You've got to be able to see things clearly. And we are. That's why we're investing more than the nation has invested in our defence at any time since the Second World War. And so that is why, you know, our Government is focused on this challenge.

And I think Australians get it. We want to have a positive relationship with countries like China and trade with them. But at the same time, we're not going to get pushed around. Langdon: What did you think about that line, about the submarines being toothpicks? It was quite odd yesterday. Prime Minister: Oh look, again, the Labor Party walks both sides of the street on these issues, and that's why you really can't trust them when it comes to these national security issues.

I mean, Anthony Albanese was joining with the Chinese Government and others from overseas having an attack on me the other day. My fianc e is my best friend and everything has seemingly fallen into place. However, about a year ago, a colleague began to show an interest in me, which I returned. I recently went out with my colleague one-on-one for the first time. He was kind to me rather than angry, which made me like him even more.

I tried to kiss him and he turned me down, saying I would regret it. Should I tell my fiance even though nothing happened?

Even when a person is in a comfortable, committed and loving relationship, flirtations and outside interests are likely to grab your attention from time to time.

It is understandable to crave excitement and a change from what may seem a tad predictable, but try to be smart about this. Nothing has been broken, and there is no need to share any of this with your partner, although it would be worth considering if there is something missing in your relationship that could lead you to look elsewhere — and ask him for what you need. It may seem like a loss to avoid flirting with your colleague, but recognise that it was probably serving as a temporary escape from the pressure of contemplating a settled life.
