Australian PM Albanese caught on hot mic joking about climate ministers genitalia at COP31

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and climate minister Chris Bowen made crude jokes during COP31. The exchange occurred while they discussed the potential interference of a phone on health. Albanese jokingly suggested that Bowen should be more concerned about his phone in his pocket. This incident follows previous controversies surrounding Albanese's offhand remarks. Australia's involvement in COP31 has faced criticism for its fossil fuel export practices.
