    Fuck off.

    This cunt refused to do shit, let boats into Sydney so lib mates could dock, spread the virus, and wanted to keep us open for Easter or whatever Christian holiday it was.

    It took Dan Andrew’s putting Vic into lockdown that forced him to the table to act.

      Plus Dan copped all the heat when every major outbreak could be traced back to Gladys

    This is the guy that doesn’t hold a hose and supported efforts to overturn WA’s closed border. Fuck him

      RIP satirical news. You are missed.

      Didn’t he approve the Ruby Princess cruise ship to Dock in Sydney that started the big wave of covid? Details are sketchy in my mind but I do remember vehement hate towards him and the NSW leaders.

    What did the federal government even do in 2020? Everything I remember about government response was at the state level.

      I’m from Melbourne, and I remember the bit where he didn’t put in an order for vaccines, and took the vaccines that we did have secured and redirected them to NSW as we went into out 6th fucking lockdown over it.

      That, and his Holiday in Hawaii as we were choking on soot.

        That, and his Holiday in Hawaii as we were choking on soot.

        It’s much worse than that. the holiday in Hawaii was a lie. He was in NY for the opening of a new church.

        Instead of giving a statement to the press saying “Sorry, I’m in New York for an event with my church. I’ll be on the first plane home” the Government pretended he hadn’t left the country and he made a stopover in Hawaii on the way home so photos could be “leaked” of him “being a dad and spending time with his kids during the school holidays”.

        The Australian public were having none of it.

        Very few people would have a problem if he went with the actual truth of “Sorry, I’m in New York for an event with my church. I’ll be on the first plane home” but hey, liars gotta lie!

      Scomo was happy to let it rip for the sake of business interests.

      It was only the Premiers who stood up to him. I’m not a fan of Gladys, but she did get one thing right.

    While no doubt we could’ve done a lot worse, this still reads like a satirical headline to me

    Onya Scotty!

    crises during his term, including the COVID pandemic and Black Summer bushfires.

    My favourite moment during your heroic handling of the bushfires was when you tried to shake that firefighter’s hand and he said “No! I don’t want to shake your hand” so you lurked around behind him and said “HOwZ THe CUPPA!!!”

    We should all leave our soiled pants out for Scotty tonight.

    Who the fuck gave this cunt the award

      He probably arranged for this himself. Wouldn’t put it past him.

      One of his few mates probably.

    Is this Scott Morrison the minister for health? Or the minister for finance? Or perhaps Scott the minister for home affairs? Wait it must be Scott the treasurer.

      A liar, a thief and a murderer.

    This cheapens the prestigiousness of the entire AC award.

    You’d be embarrassed if you were also an AC recipient.
