“His transformation from empty vessel for business interests to vacuous vehicle for corporate concerns has been nothing short of stunning.”
The millions of Australians excluded by the nation’s largest ever economic package which passed Parliament yesterday are this morning marvelling at the evolution of Scott Morrison’s leadership style.
Senate now voting on Greens 2nd amendmt to leave no-one behind: incl lift DSP/Carer payment, increase #DV funding, give PPE to First Nations; & support TPVs, LGBTIQ+, regional &remote, local Gov workers, tourism &Arts, NBN, rent holidays &no evictions. LibLab oppose, so we lost.

They are all said to be taking Scott Morrison’s comforting words that “we are all in this together” at face value, supremely confident that this ruling class warrior who has spent his entire career protecting capitalists at the expense of workers has now converted to revolutionary socialism and will look after them any day now.
So @ScottMorrisonMP says we are “All in this together”...
