at least five extra ministerial positionsgot completely spanked at the 2022 Federal ElectionthatJohnHoward
The situation was very real. It was very serious,” he said, somewhat dramatically. “Events changed hourly, if not even more frequently than that. Meetings were constant. There was a procession of these and engagements.” Meetings were constant? Events changed hourly? Sounds like the average day in the life of an online journo, mate.The prospect of serious loss of life, of disruption to civil society, of the collapse of our economy, as we were seeing in other parts of the world, was real.” He then tried something new, introducing a somewhat Shakespearean “storm” analogy, which in my opinion as someone who did at least one semester of Shakespeare studies at Newcastle Uni, didn’t really land. “As we sit here now in the relative calm seas, or perhaps from the safety of the shore, and we look back at a time which was a raging tempest, people can be led to make judgements out of context. But the context was very real.” The safety of the shore??? Morrison, Gaslight McGee, whatever your name is: you fucked off to Hawaii while we were burning. Pretty sure you were the one that was on the shore.here was a clear expectation established in the public’s mind, certainly in the media’s mind, and absolutely certainly in the mind of the Opposition, as I would walk into Question Time every day, that I, as Prime Minister, was responsible pretty much for every single thing that was going on, every drop of rain, every strain of the virus, everything that occurred over that period of time.”“With an understanding of the expectation of public responsibility singularly directed at the Prime Minister, I believed it was necessary to have authority, to have what were effectively emergency powers, to exercise in extreme situations that would be unforeseen, that would enable me to act in the national interests,” he said. “And that is what I did in a crisis.”I made a meme.

id not exercise those powers. And I had the power, though, to act if that was necessary”.“You couldn’t understand this because you haven’t been the Prime Minister” is a hell of an explanation for baffling secret Ministries

There was also the classic: “I sought to pursue the national interest on that basis, not for any personal advancement, but to get Australia through one of the worst crises we have faced since the Second World War”. Yes, you’re a regular Winston Churchill. Go off king.strange argument: everyone said i wasn't doing enough so i secretly took on a bunch of powers and didn't do anything with them

Why did you deceive the Australian public and Treasurer and Finance Minister about this?” Morrison’s answer? “I don’t share that view.”you've got to hand it to the liberal party, they excel at appointing leaders who would be the absolute worst person at the pub on any given night
