Play Nice Scott Morrison in the Multiverse of Ministries.

Grace Tame on Scott Morrison: "The ambitions of Voldemort with the brains of Peter Griffin". lmao

Take it to the conspiracy board.

Pathetic

 

[Northalives]

Take it to the conspiracy board.

What? You are the one who reckons it's alright/tacitly approve of usurping Parliament and you want my bit of satire moved to the conspiracy board?

 

[Northalives]

So no Catholics, Muslims or Jews then?

You really try hard to be a clever dick, hey? The gentleman was referring to fundamentalist, supremacist extremist factions within a religion. Your temerity has now become bloody embarrassing.

I don’t think he’s the full quid, best just to put him on Ignore and not risk ‘setting him off’.

What person stays at a party where everybody calls you a ****head?? Reading a book, going for a run or gardening isn’t that bad - gotta be better for your mental health.

 

[Northalives]

Maybe. Does Scott Morrison hate children? Is that why he assumed all those ministries?

He must love children a lot given that he gives taxpayer money to psycho Pentecostal organisations who try to "pray away the gay" from young people and resort to exorcisms and gay conversion therapy.

 

[Crankyhawk]

Why do you think he did it?

Because people were taking the piss socialising at playgrounds. This has previously been explained. You think just because you would follow the rules others will too. They don’t because people are dumb. I see dumb people all the time at work.

 

[Crankyhawk]

I don’t get RDOs in my line of work.

I do have a few days off though.

On an entirely unrelated note…anyone know where you can get Ivermectin? A friend wants to know.

Pet stores

Morrison joins advisory board of Rupert Murdoch-backed think tank

Lucky Scott Morrison was never interested in having a legacy. His is now forever tainted as the first former prime minister to be censured by parliament. With Morrison’s political reputation so tattered that even past prayer pals Alex Hawke and Stuart “Brother Stuey” Robert are hardly glowing in their assessment of his leadership, the MP for Cook is turning to the world of overseas conservative think tanks to find friends.

His rebrand as a “virtuous globalisation mastermind” in a pitch to the international speaker’s circuit has been heard by the Washington DC-based Hudson Institute, which is inviting Morrison to the US capital next week to give a private lecture on Australia’s China relationship.

Hudson is so excited about Morrison’s insights it’s added him to the strategic advisory board of their China Centre. But the former PM isn’t the only Australian close to the think tank. According to Hudson’s most recent annual report, it received over $100,000 in funding from one Rupert Murdoch, who also sits on its Chairman’s Advisory Board.

Other major donors include multinational weapons companies Lockheed Martin and Northrupp Grumman, who will no doubt be thrilled at the former PM’s hawkish view of relations between China and the west.

Can you imagine what goes on in the head of someone who identifies as a Christian but is happy to speak at a think tank sponsored by weapons manufacturers? Jesus wants you to buy more weapons. * me. These people are completely cooked.

Christians may be choosing the "smite my enemies path" which is still in bits of both old and new testament as far as I recall (though am not a bible scholar)

 

[BruceFromBalnarring]

And yet you are leading the Dan hating pitchfork wielding mob.

Which is 100% confirmation you are a hypocritical campaigner.

I’m not an IBAC investigator.

And go easy on the personal insults.

Like the HQ decision, I understand why he did it in the circumstances.

I also understand why he didn’t broadcast that he’d done it.

I don’t agree with either decision. Tacitly or otherwise.

Let’s explore what your proposed actions would have been.

Stuart Robert faces a widening investigation

The widening investigation into Stuart Robert and his firm has at least $300 million in contracts in its scope.

I'd be happy to see Morrison escape with the wet lettuce treatment as long as brother Stuie cops it with both barrels.

 

[Crankyhawk]

In terms of ministries?

No in terms of Dan actions (which was the quote I was responding too; and I also understand it is tangential to the thread)

Edit - apologies, I misread it. The HQ reference made me think it was talking about Dan, and the next line "I don't understand why he didn't broadcast why he did it" I took to be a reference to why didn't he explain the data behind the close the playgrounds

On re read you are asking you don't understand why Scomo didn't broadcast what he did at the time and why (and FWIW I agree with you there, certainly being open about what was done would have been a lot more justifiable, transparent and probably would have been given a pass by the public at the time too)

Can you explain why he did it? Cause he hasn’t been able to in a way that satisfied some of his own party members.

 

[carltonchelsea]

Did Scott Morrison close them?

What’s your obsession with playgrounds?

 

[Rotayjay]

The move opens the door to a further sanction being levelled against Morrison, such as being refused entry to the House or being forced to apologise.

A forced apology would be meaningless. I want to see his arse hung out to dry at the Robodebt Royal Commission and the National Integrity Commission. Or, better yet, seeing him in jail.

 

[Magruder]

I don’t believe Morrison has ever given a reason why he needed to be Minister for everything.

Whitlam took on multiple ministries. Unlike Morrison though he was an intellectual colossus - a force of nature, he hit the ground running. New programmes included; Medicare and free Uni, legal aid, needs based funding for schools, single parents benefit, Arts Council, Racial Discrimination Act, diplomatic ties with China, Dept of Aboriginal Affairs and recognition of land rights, equal pay for women, death penalty abolished, Family Court, national sewerage program, voting age reduced to 18, termination of conscription, PNG given its independence …. In its first year alone, the Whitlam Government passed 203 bills.

Morrison couldn’t even get his party room to agree to legislation to protect LGBT students from discrimination. FFS a pandemic couldn’t pique his interest - "it isn't a race".. He was given a To Do List from various royal commissions and reports, but after taking the low hanging fruit it all just got too hard for Scott - 27 of 76 recommendations of the banking royal commission were implemented.

Largest PMO staff in our history, all focused on photo ops and redirecting grants from needy communities to marginal LNP electorates - the ones that already have 12 baseball stadiums and schools with Olympic swimming pools.

Even EGW wasn’t a one man operation.

IIRC he and Barnard were sworn into every portfolio because a labor ministry needed to be elected by caucus. And caucus wouldn’t meet for some time after the federal election.

But I have no doubt figures like Crean, Cairns, Murphy et al were prominent and involved.

And it wasn’t secret.

Defends priests as well. I'm seeing a pattern.
