For all the issues of the current lot, “most incompetent and corrupt Federal Govt in living memory”? I suppose if it’s the living memory of a 4-year-old kindergartener. In case you forgot from your time on The Project, presenting on these things happening: “I don’t hold a hose”, women’s-march-should-be-thankful-they’re-not-shot, Jenkins Report, Parliamentary rapist Bruce Lehrmann, “lying cow”, alleged theft of secret documents for defence jobs, Prayer Rooms and Parliamentary Escorts, JobKeeper clawbacks for small businesses but not for Harvey Norman, using RAAF jets for OECD job interviews, Robodebt, Sports Rorts, Car Porks, Choppergate, $30m to buy Leppington Triangle, French subs torpedoed for AUKUS subs, Angus Taylor’s forged documents, Holgate’s sacking after Cartier watches, knighting Prince Philip, “shit happens” after a dead soldier, the FIVE SECRET MINISTRIES of COVID, Helloworld, water buybacks from Cayman Islands, Dutton’s au pairs, Stuart Robert’s Chinese Rolex trip, Bastiaan/Sukkar’s branch stacking (the NSW version of which is in front of NSW ICAC right now), Tudge’s affair, Gladys Liu’s alleged CCP links, Christian Porter’s blind trust, Michaelia Cash tipping off media to AWU raids, the $80m Paladin contract for Manus Island run from a beach shack on Kangaroo Island, the Biloela Family, the Barrier Reef Foundation’s $444m 30-minute phone call, the Manus Island rapes, the Manus Island tensions with locals, the closure of regional soft power broadcasting, the grasslands affair, the regional licensing of Sky, the bonk ban, the Section 44 crisis, the Ruby Princess, COVID procurement fuck-ups and favourable deals to mates, the “it’s not a race” vaccine rollout bungling, “Well Done Angus”, the fabricated Naomi Wolf conflict, the Aged Care Royal Commission, inexplicably moving our oil reserve to the USA, community development grant rorts, the 2022 pre-election electricity price delay, the appointment of Administrative Appeals Tribunal mates, Wilson’s franking credits conflict of interest, the baffling approval of the Port of Darwin to Chinese interests only for attempts to buy it back, mate Downer appointed UK High Commissioner, mate Hockey appointed US ambassador, mate Ruddock as Human Rights Envoy, Andrew Robb’s step from Parliament to Landbridge… …It’s not a short list for someone without a short memory - and at least SEVEN of the scandals and incompetencies listed above directly involved your coffee mate, Angus Taylor.
