I'm starting to think Spud fucked-up intentionally to destroy Morrison

Payback.

It was inevitable. Spud ain't the forgiving type.

Well played @PeterDutton_MP, game, set & match.

I thought something was up y'day when Spud smiled at the presser with Palaszczuk

I'd say Kochie & Karl had a hand in it too, Spud was too calm when they questioned him abt ADF, his contrived anger obvious

Then he rocked up to the presser grinning like a Cheshire cat
🐝
#auspol
And

It explains Go Fund Me thingy.

Spud had all this planned when he set-up the GFM campaign

Knowing he'd likely be accused of not caring for ADF delay, he set-up the GFM campaign so he could say "Look, I care, I started that"

Spud has played PM like a Stradivarius

#auspol
I'm watching Morrison's presser, ABC now, comparing Spud's demeanour to his demeanour at Palaszczuk presser on Wed

Chalk & cheese

These blokes aren't good actors, they can barely disguise or contain their contempt for one another

I love it when karma let's us watch

Has anyone told Morrison that the Brisbane River cannot accommodate nuclear-powered subs?

I know this for a fact.

So, why is Brisbane being listed as an option in his Lowy speech today?

I've told this story b4 but here it is again....
🐝
#auspol
Years ago an American nuclear-powered warship visited Brisbane, docked at the Port of Brisbane on the Brisbane River.

I was a GC taxi driver at the time, it was a quiet Tuesday night & all of a sudden $200 Brisbane jobs were going off left, right & centre.

🐝
#auspol
Dozens of GC cabs picked up their pax & headed to Brissy

My pax was the ship's doctor

Shore leave cancelled, they were bugging out

Why? Bcuz jellyfish were blocking the filtration system that cooled the nuclear reactor on-board

That's why Brisbane is not an option

Pecuniary Interests Update

Matt Canavan received 2 x $200+ bottles of wine from Chinese-owned mining company Royal Duke Holdings

He doesn't say what he did to deserve them

Donated to community orgs for fundraising (doesn't say which ones)

Probably a wise move, he won't need it after May

Jenny Morrison,

I don't accept ur excuses/hindsight about your Hawaiian holiday in Dec 2019 or that being PM is '24/7' or it's not OK for PMs to take holidays

Here are my reasons:

a) Scott never advised the Australian public he was going on leave in Dec 2019
🐝
#auspol #qt
b) Scott never advised the Leader of the Opposition he was going on holidays in Dec 2019 until he was en-route to Hawaii. Scott lied to Parliament about this Nov 21

c) Scott never advised the Australian ppl who the Acting PM would be while he was away in Dec 2019
🐝
#auspol #qt
d) When questioned, Scott's office denied he was on holidays at the time

e) In 2019 the Morrison family took 3 holidays:
South Coast NSW Jan 2019
Fiji June 2019
Hawaii Dec 2019

3 holidays in 1 year is not '24/7' nor supports the claim PMs can't take leave

#60mins Interview with Scott & Jenny Morrison

Karl Stefanovic opens with a monologue about how much trouble Scott is in.

Enter Jenny 'funny, relatable, likeable'

Scene goes to The Lodge kitchen on curry night.
Karl chats to Scott about curry.

🐝
#auspol
Jenny "It's just 24/7"

Reminder, the PM is paid $550K per year

Apparently the Morrison thought being PM wouldn't be 24/7

The topic of Hawaii comes up

Jenny is "more than sorry", thought she was "making the best decision for her kids"

She wishes it never happened
🐝
#60mins
Rehash of the Morrison's "love story", discussing when they broke up once 30 yrs ago

Jenny says she knows Scott "better than he knows himself"

She should know he imprisons children indefinitely then 'eh?

Karl asks Jenny if she wants to go into politics.

Pecuniary Interests Update

Communications Minister Paul Fletcher went to the Aus Open Men's Final 2022

Channel 9 paid

(they also paid for Josh Frydenberg to W's F)

I can't wait to see Ch9's election coverage, it'll be as balanced as a North Korean news bulletin

Dan Tehan went too, Tennis Australia paid

I bet come Budget time, Tennis Australia will be putting their hand out for more funding.

Here's a business tip TA: Save money, don't give away seats to politicians who can afford to pay their own way.

Angus Taylor invested in a $2 million pastoral company.

McLaughlin River Holdings, remember that name, should be cropping up on Austender or GrantConnect in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1....

I wonder what type of grass it has?

Any imaginary water?

Rainy Sunday arvo here on the Goldie so I thought I'd have a squizz at something.

I'm furious about aged care, I'm furious with Aged Care Services & Sport Minister Richard Colbeck.

I kept asking myself "Where TF is his head at?"

That got me thinking.

🐝
#auspol #qt
When Colbeck got busted blowing-off the Senate Inquiry to go to the cricket he said he devoted equal time to both his portfolios

So, I thought I'd check to see if I could find any evidence to support that claim

Started with his Twitter. Hasn't tweeted since 2019.
🐝
#auspol #qt
I checked out his Insta

Hard to tell, maybe a few more Sports pics compared to Aged Care pics, but not obvious enough to make a song & dance about.

At a guess I'd say 60% Sport/30% Aged Care/10% general stuff

I didn't do a spreadsheet for Insta, but I did for FB
