Former High Court judge Virginia Bell’s report into the multiple ministries of Scott Morrison says the debacle caused confidence in government to “plummet to realistic levels”.
It was revealed Scott Morrison sco-vertly sco-wrote the report with his fellow Scott Morrisons, PM Scott Morrison and Morrison, Scott Esq.
“Writing the report did my heads in,” said one of the Scott Morrisons to himself.
A grateful nation has thanked Mr Morrison for being Australia’s most single-handed Cabinet ever.
Meanwhile, Josh Frydenberg thinks he should have made himself prime minister.

Cultural appropriation lacks ‘lived experience’ of cultural appropriation
Writing NSW are running a workshop exploring ‘fraught questions of cultural appropriation’.
Questions will include: “Should all books be memoirs with only one character?”
An approved example of ‘writing from lived experience’ is Star Wars creator, George Lucas. He was born half-princess/half-wookie on a distant planet and was his own father.
Writers whose plots show signs of cultural appropriation are advised to lose the plot. Then, having lost the plot, they’ll be government-funded until said plot is located.
Writers creating Nazi characters are urged to be mindful of ‘positionality, responsibility and context’. One said, “All Nazis had mothers (except the one born of a jackal).”
To be safe, writers are encouraged to only write about writers being encouraged to write about writers.
