  1. CW: CW: auspol, ScoMo, Islam.

    Four years after jamming his party into a tree-chipper at the polls, #Australia's worst ever PM still feels a need to babble public policy from the refuge of distant shores.

  2. I used to live in the next town over, and it’s gratifying to see the #Nadesalingam family finally thriving as part of #Biloela's community. The lengths #ScoMo’s government—and particularly then-Home Affairs Minister #Dutton—went to in order to make an example of them were both ludicrouslty excessive and shameful. I’m glad they're finally home safe. #murugappan #auspol #immigration #BackToBilo rssfeed.media/@abcfeeds/115006

  3. CW: CW: auspol, uspol, China, and ScoMo.

    So, does Morrison testify in any official capacity, or has he just shown up to shake hands where he’s unwelcome again?

    I’d almost forgotten this banger existed—it serendipitously popped up on the rotation this afternoon. youtu.be/qkyuI3oiGNE #auspol #ScoMo

  5. #ScoMo, evidence that if you are at the top at the right time, in the right circumstances anyone can look good, if people squint hard enough.

    He didn't do a good job leading Australia through Covid, he was dragged kicking and screaming by the states into a reasonable response. If Australia really had followed him through those years we'd have been in a much worse place.

    Just another instance of the Kings Birthday awards being meaningless.

  6. Well, fuck. Had I known ahead of time, I’d have flown to Hawaii for the long weekend.

  7. Why Do the Least Qualified Often End Up in Power?
    Machiavelli saw it coming centuries ago—and modern psychology backs him up.
    This video unpacks the unsettling truth: confidence, charisma, and cunning often outrank competence when it comes to climbing the ladder. From CEOs to politicians, it’s not always the best and brightest who rise to the top.
    Explore the dark side of leadership and what it means for you, your workplace, and the world.

  8. Just when you thought John Winston Howard was going to be the worst former PM in the press today…

  9. CW: CW: auspol, rape

    I wondered how long it’d take. The Ambassador to Hawaii’s come out of hiding to give the testimony only he needs to hear. Did anyone actually ask him to appear, or did he take it upon himself? theguardian.com/australia-news #auspol #BrittanyHiggins #DARVO #scomo

  10. I bumped into #ScoMo in the lift a couple of times about 20 years ago. Ergo, there’s a nonzero chance he’ll try to comp me a copy of his book, too. 😱 #OhTheDread mastodon.au/@politicalgadgets/

  11. CW: ScoMo Laughs After Hiding From Jen & The Girls, Pretending To Be Raptured

    @MsDropbear425

    Ya know... I'm not hugely into musicals but we really need Tim Minchin to write one about #ScoMo ...

    I'm going to suggest the title be:

    Scotty The Pathological Liar Goes To Canberra And Fucks Up An Entire Country.

    Suggesting that Gary McDonald play #ScottyThePathologicalLiar and Joel Creasey play the #BeetRooter...

  12. Bit of a latecomer but have just finished the first episode of Nemesis. Jeez Scott Morrison is a total wanker #ScoMo #Nemesis #abciview #auspol

  13. CW: auspol

    One thing that concerns me about #Dutton is how often he forgets that #Albo isn't beholden to the #LNP party room—and the tanties that inevitably ensue.

    Granted, #ScoMo set a low bar, but this isn't the kind of behaviour that strikes me as appropriate to a potential head of government, either.

    I get that he's #NotAMonster, but calling for an election every time the #ALP dares to not screw the poors *quite* as hard? Hmmm.

  14. #scomo leaving politics for "opportunities in the corporate sector" is so telling. It really took him nearly 2 years to find someone to employ him. How embarrassing .

    I can't say I'll miss him as my MP!

  15. #Pandemic #PPE : how #Australia entrusted a small-time retailer with $100m and got 46m unusable masks. As the world scrambled desperately for protective equipment in 2020, Australia made a hasty deal with a virtually unknown supplier. It went disastrously wrong . #lnpfaiĺ government paid millions for unusable Covid face masks from obscure online retailer
