Anthony Albanese's brutal eight-word comeback to those calling him out for taking four overseas trips in a month

 Anthony Albanese has responded to 'Airbus Albo' criticism with a simple eight-word response after he was slammed for taking four overseas trips in a month.

The Prime Minister is in the United States for the APEC summit, where all eyes will be on a highly anticipated meeting between Joe Biden and Xi Jinping.

Mr Albanese has been called out by opposition leader Peter Dutton, who says he should have cancelled his trip to deal with pressing domestic issues.

Mr Dutton said the prime minister should instead convene a meeting with premiers and chief ministers to discuss growing anti-Semitism and civil unrest in Australia, amid the escalating conflict in Gaza.

The Liberal leader also called for Mr Albanese to address security concerns in the wake of criminals being released into the community following a High Court decision on immigration detention.

But Mr Albanese snapped back at the criticism of his latest trip, sharing a photo of himself shaking hands with Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella along with the caption: 'What happens in the world matters at home'.

The pair met on Thursday to announce the government's partnership with Microsoft, which will explore safe and responsible ways to use artificial intelligence to better deliver public services to the Australian public.

'It's how we deliver jobs and growth and new industries to Australia,' the PM wrote.

'I'm in San Francisco to attend the APEC Economic Leaders Meeting and do just that.'

It comes after Microsoft announced a $5billion investment in Australia which is expected to create more jobs and make the nation more cyber-secure.

It is the PM's second trip to the US in a month and follows recent trips to China and the Cook Islands - prompting many to dub the prime minister 'Airbus Albo'.

Australians were divided in the comments, with some saying that overseas travel was a crucial and unavoidable part of being prime minister. 

'Why are you running away? Your flying around the whole world,' one wrote. 

'He's doing his job,' another replied.

'The international meetings he has had is beneficial to this country. Look it up.'

'At 'home'. What about the thousands of Australians shitting themselves at the thought of being homeless due to the ongoing rental crisis that you aren't doing anything about?' a third wrote. 

'I wish I had a 'home' of my own, a humble small home, a roof, security.'

Sky News host Paul Murray criticised the PM for constantly 'flying around the world' - with his trip to San Francisco his fourth overseas trip in a month. 

'Airbus Albo is the nickname that I just have to keep using cause I know how much they love it,' the host told viewers earlier this week. 

'He is flying around the world at such a rate that he is clocking up as many kilometres it would take to fly to the moon and beyond.

'Perhaps by the end of his prime ministership it would be Mars turn around and come back – or is he going to keep going all the way to Pluto.'
