seems Morrison is too thick to be running a raffle let alone a country and setting policy on the future of the planet. “I have a lot of respect for your country, I have a lot of respect and a lot of friendship for your people” is not sledging the country or the people.
anyway no doubt #ausmedia will put his phoney macho chest thumping in the headlines, so as to maximise his chances of re-election. They love that cheap misogynist copy.
what’s the headline, skip? Scott Morrison says… Scott Morrison attempts to… here is an audio grab of Scott Morrison chest thumping and gaslighting. An abusive bully powered the usual litany of lies, fawning press gallery, and undiluted toxic masculinity.
“hit back”. Drink.
he toured a naval shipbuilding site in Glasgow. Where they are building frigates for the Australian navy. Under contract to the Australian government. My god.
idk why we constantly seek out comment from a man who botched everything he touched in public life but “former prime minister Scott… Malcolm Turnbull” is an understandable slip.

good morning from unceded Darug lands☀️today on #Insiders are ABC 730 politics correspondent Laura Tingle, 9fax international editor Peter Hartcher and murdoch assistant economics editor Cameron Stewart. The interview is with Industry, Energy and Emissions minister Angus Taylor.
the Australian Way or climate con job? asks Speers. What does Scott Morrison want, skip? Well, he is on his way to Glasgow to “sell” [his pamphlet]. Speers describes the raging factional hatreds as the Coalition reaching a “fragile consensus”. #Insiders
“save the day”. Drink. The KPI set by Scott Morrison, which is for Scott Morrison to not be sacked by his colleagues, is quite something. The montage is dominated by clips of Scott Morrison mouthing Morrison government slogans. #Insiders

thoughts and prayers for Gladys Berejiklian’s memory today. May it return when a Liberal Party politician organises to give her an overpaid executive position on a silver platter🙏🏼
Berejiklian to her intimate partner, the MP for Wagga who stood down due to corruption investigations: I will throw money at Wagga don’t you worry about that. I can overrule [the executive].
Journalist: there may perhaps be a potential public perception of a conflict of interest.
but will unavoidable ABC everyman, head Liberal Party mopper upperer, the bloke whose editorialising is impossible for any ABC audience member to miss, judge Berejiklian’s position so irredeemable he dare not touch the story again this week. Such tuff [editorial] questions.

he is not legislating it because 1/ he can’t; and 2/ he doesn’t want to.

1. The government does not have the numbers to legislate their re-announced existing inadequate target because of all the Coalition climate denialists.

2. Morrison is leader of the denialist factions.
when ousted former Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull tried to legislate a target, and despite being cheered on by the press gallery, he failed. He was then taken out by the climate denialists in the Liberal Party room, led by Scott Morrison.
Abbott also mobilised climate denialists in the Liberal Party room to oust Malcolm Turnbull, in 2009. He then repealed the legislated Labor emissions reduction policy, a policy which lowered emissions. It is an existing Abbott era target that Morrison re-announced yesterday.

no we didn’t. Scott Morrison announced an unlegislated target and asked assembled journalists to tell voters he has a plan. The media, collectively, complied. This entire exercise is election campaign comms and its sole purpose has already been achieved.
Morrison will now tick “announce target” off his to-do list and move on, irregardless of a few serious climate policy journalists crying into their cups. That’s politics mate, he will say. All politics is local. He does not care about the human cost, not yours, not ours.
he is a crash or crash through megalomaniac with messiah complex and painting him as having subtlety or nuance is self-serving first-order bullshit. Cosying up to him failed. Todays announcement is another policy failure. All press coverage of Morrison is catastrophically wrong.

“the Labor Party has a plan to legislate” - prime minister Scott Morrison on the federal opposition.
this pilot election campaign launch is “a whole of ecanomy plan”. Sounds like Liberal Party polling is showing that their economic management lies still, despite all evidence to the contrary, are believed. Thanks, corporate media.
we’re gunna chieve [bodgy targets set by land-clearing accounting tricks]!! shouts Morrison. Today is about the plan, we’ll release the modelling later, he says.
