When the prime minister flew into the tiny regional airport of Moruya on Easter Monday, it was holidaymakers at the nearby coastal campground, not locals, who greeted him.
“I want to give a shout-out to the people from the caravan park … who donned their jammies, came out to say G’day,” he told reporters later that day at a Batemans Bay urgent care clinic. “They’re having a wonderful holiday here in a beautiful part of the world.”
