Media Opinion of Morrison's LNP remains lower than a snakes belly or should we say the depth a nuclear sub can dive, The Depth of Despair?
Come the next election, it’s a fair bet that Scott Morrison will use the pandemic as the reason he and his Coalition partner have been unable to deliver on anything or appropriately act on many unfinished reports, too numerous to mention. Such as how much the Prime Minister knew about Brittany Higgins’ rape allegations. Too busy on COVID will be the shrill word of the next campaign.
They will blame the pandemic for nine years…
After spending 9 years as a Queensland copper, Peter Dutton was elected to Federal parliament at the age of 30 and he has been bumbling around pissing people off ever since.
Dutton does defence
Scott Morrison’s three ring circus last week unveiling an awkwardly named pact with the United States and Britain, at the expense of France, isn’t looking quite like the winner he had hoped. The greatest collateral damage of AUKUS is to the Prime Minister’s personal credibility.
Paul Bongiorno: Scott Morrison’s credibility torpedoed by the French
Morrison single-handedly has managed to screw over both the French and the Americans the French because he was, too weak, too two-faced and failed to notify them until the day before the public announcement about AUKUS that he officially tore up their contract, and the Americans because he had told or Biden left it to him to sort out the French "diplomatically". But, Morrison in typical form did neither, and the French reaction has come as a total surprise to Biden whose policy has been to "strengthen all alliances and not fuck them". He now has let it be known that he will personally ring Macron to smooth over the shit storm "his pal down under" has handed him. As usual Morrison chose not to hold the hose and allowed the blunder to grow to thunder clap. Morrison focuses only on his own domestic image and thought this would put him in the good books with the electorate. However and yet again, he was sooo effen wrong.
He's now allied us with an America divided an America at war with itself and has actually increased our likelihood of war. He's aligned himself, not with a united USA but, with a nation forever at war that will now tell Australia what to do rather than merely ask us. We will like other American alliances be told to jump because of AUKUS and be expected to say "how high". That's hardly our defence but more an American offence policy should Trump or the Republican Party come back in 2024, 28, 32..... Besties with Kim Jong-un no doubt a bonus.
Nuclear sub plan sees Australia’s reputation take a dive
Opinion
it will now be left to the poor voters in his WA seat of Pearce to
determine just how immune the electorate has become to the litany of
scandals, conflicts and contempt emanating from our Canberra
representatives.
Porter shows the bar is now so low for Parliamentary accountability it’s getting hard to see

Editorial
Defence
France’s reaction to losing its Australian submarine contract has been forthright to say the least. The Foreign Minister and ambassador have accused us of “treason”, backstabbing and lying. The response might be overstated, but they have a genuine right to be furious.
We should have treated France better over submarine deal
The AUKUS partners have managed to alienate France in the process of assembling their new coalition.
