Our worst ever PM #Scott 🤡 played the politics of continual sideshow to distract from his party’s total absence of policy, thereby effectively maintaining conditions for accelerated plunder at whatever cost to people or planet. This is the strategy. The current Lib Nats continue the same by performing self destruction as a clowshow 🎡🎪🤡.
And still our media report it as news.
Why can’t we disregard these clowns? If we regarded the Greens & independents as the actual opposition our government, with its huge majority in the lower house, might be challenged & empowered to step away from state capture by fossil fuel industries & meet our perilous times with integrity & courage.
This is serious, folks.
