The greatest moral challenge of our generation thread

It’s exactly what happens when the overwhelming majority of media outlets in the country are conservative. If Scott the Marketer pulled out a gun and shot someone on live TV, the Liberals could still get away with blaming Labor.

You’ve gotta be a special kind of coward/cunt to leg it overseas on a holiday (to Hawaii, no less) whilst the country you “lead” is facing one of its greatest ever environmental crises.

MSM to hold him to account in 3…2…

Using Scott Morrison’s own words, I guess going to Hawaii is “a bad judgement call.”

Mind you, he can stay there, not like he’s enacting any environmental policy of note when he’s here.

Interesting reporting on SA being the national leader when it comes to clean energy. A Spanish renewables company is also plowing $500m into a wind and solar farm down there.

From the guardian live blog:

He now suggests that concerns over longer fire seasons, fatigued fire fighters, and calls for systemic change, are coming from Twitter and government policy will is not going to be set by social media.

“There are always lots of experts when any of these things happen, but I can tell you as the prime minister and as the premier was telling you, the experts are the ones who have command responsibilities,” Morrison says.

“You just don’t run out of a press conference and make something up because you think that it is going to give you a headline. What you do is you do the careful work to actually deliver the response and deliver the support that is absolutely necessary.”

Just to be clear, when Morrison says he is listening to the experts, it’s not these ones:

This cunt is fucking unbelievable.

Never let the facts get in the way of your prejudices.

This idiot will argue black is white if it benefits him.

He can say or do whatever he wants, there’s not another election for years. Same reason he didn’t come straight home from Hawaii

Great parallels with the UK, he’s a despicable cunt just like Boris, but when the best candidate Labor can throw up is Shorten or Corbyn…

Albo ain’t much better than Shorten. Wonder if this old chestnut will be brought up before the next election:

I’m sure the News lynch mob will be out with it at some point, but I find this no better or worse than being a Hillsong member. Didn’t Kevin Rudd’s visit to a titty bar while in the USA end up being seen as just about a plus?

So good that he came back from his holiday early to lead us through this difficult and challenging time. Working and coordinating with experts in the field to deliver the best possible solutions and outcomes for those effected today, and those effected by what’s to come in the future.

ScoMo shat himself at Engadine McDonalds. If the bar was any lower it would be underground.
Edit: allegedly

I really wish Scotty from Marketing had stayed in Hawaii. Absolute hoax of a government when it comes to the environment.

Dissent will not be tolerated.

A blank, grey wall is a better artistic representation of that tip rat anyways

Richard Flanagan is the best.

I’d forgot about the PMO lying about Scotty from Marketing even being in Hawaii. This government lies so often it’s not even a surprise anymore.

And the ALP offers nothing in return.

Hope everyone is safe wherever they are in our on-fire country. Have a safe new year sky blues.
