Entry 444
Diplomatic action
30/8
There is something darkly funny watching the PM walk back his disgusting rhetoric because I'm there, clearly afraid of what I might say about him. I admittedly didn't make a secret. I spoke about how amazing Australia is, its natural beauty and its warm and good citizens. Then I talked about the queer Australians I'd met and how important it is for them to see people in the halls of power like them and people love and accept them. And I spoke about the dangers of hateful rhetoric and how important unity is.
I could see Callum losing his mind a bit as I abandoned my prepared remarks but the speech was seemingly well received and I got rather thunderous applause.
We're now back on the Britannia, pulling away from the harbour. I can't help but worry about Ryan.
