Australian PM gets confronted by local l ABC News

1. There is a confusing Australian context to this, so it can seem various ways on a surface level. As a local Aussie:

   Basically, the PM Scott Morrison of the conservative (in Australia, "Liberal" refers to free-market capitalism) party was going on a typical "photo-op" at a pub in Newcastle, and was thus surrounded by press. This is electioneering (the election is in May), so that's what was happening.
   Just north of here, there were some of the worst floods in our history, which was also bungled in response (billions of emergency relief unspent, federal help days after the epicentre, and a very manicured photo-op in Lismore in private to avoid a repeat of the bungled bushfire disaster response in 2020, where Morrison forced angry locals to shake his hand, and those locals still haven't received their promised aid).

   For some more context, Scott Morrison has an incredible history of lying, and being called out as a liar (and then saying he's never lied in public office). So, it was, after 9 years of the same government, a good time for a local to vent their anger at one particular broken promise. This is a shortened video clip of what happened, but Morrison had to be careful and appear to be listening due to the photo-op for the election, otherwise he would look bad.
   The man also brought up the broken promise from 2018 of a federal integrity commission, which would hold politicians to the scrutiny their require in public office to avoid corruption. I recommend watching Knights in Shining Llama's video series on that for better info, but essentially the government has been using a toothless tiger.

   I'll also add, don't ever confuse British Sky News for Australia's Sky News (after dark), because it is owned by mogul Rupert Murdoch (who we gave the world) of Fox News in the US, that phone-tapping scandal in the UK, and others like a media monopoly of print in Australia.

5. what a legend.

6. Please know that Jesus Loves You, even though we are all sinners, every single one of us. Have you ever lied (even once)? Ever stolen anything ? If you said yes to those two questions you are a lying thief, and that’s only two of the Ten Commandments. How will you do on Judgment Day? You know that you will be guilty. "For the wages of sin is death” (we are all on our way to hell, forever). God does NOT want us to end up in Hell, a place of eternal torment and suffering (Not parties). We can all have eternal life on the new, perfect earth with no pain and no suffering forever. "Jesus answered, I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." Jesus took our punishment for our sins. This is a FREE gift. For those of you who wish to continue to deny God, "Since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse." Our time is short. We are living in the End Times and He will be back soon. Jesus Saves and ONLY Jesus.

7. This has to be the most Australian thing I have ever seen 🤠🤣🤣

8. You don't get to do the news anymore. Remind us how "everything" is Trump's fault losers! Russian Operative. You lost all credibility, and we are watching you FAIL. You would triple your viewership if you did real news like investigate lying cheating Hillary. Russian Operative. You didn't give the man a chance and said horrific and TRAITORIST lies. We won't just blow this off. Now Hunters Laptop$$$$$$$$$$$$

9. Good on ya mate you sure gave it to Scomo and there is more to come.

10. Shout out to George Floyd on almost two years of sobriety. It took some tough love but he did it. Say his name liberals!

11. To all libs… Go love yourself and let’s go Brandon, I agree!!!

12. Shout out to George Floyd on almost two years of sobriety. It took some tough love but he did it. Say his name liberals!

13. This was handled very badly. The majority of individuals do not have an entourage to protect them from uncomfortable comments or moments. If he had taken a few minutes to sit down with that man, he might have learned something. He would have calmed down if he felt like somebody cared.

14. Local guy drunk

15. The old guy may have a beef but he was making no sense. Scomo handled that ok. Once the old fella started going crazy it’s time to move him out of the way. Well done Scomo but I still won’t be voting for you, remember robodebt? Shame on you and your government.

16. the guy in blue tshirt ready to fight war 😆 send him to Ukraine

17. How can a Leader of a Rich country leave a poor man like that? Very disgusting attitude. Very morbid, very monstrous, very disturbing.

18. Worst move politically was to let his entourage move the man on. Offer to sit down with the guy and listen to what he's got to say.

19. Calling out another lying Politician! Good for that man!

20. He speaks for many Australians that's for sure. Just a shame that Scummo has no soul and couldn't care less. Fingers crossed we don't re-elect him but knowing our history we probably will.

21. at a buffet, i personally sneak corndogs into the buffet so others can enjoy them. I hide 6 corndogs in my jacket pockets. it then, is a joy for me to see other patrons of the establishment eat my corndogs thinking they were part of the buffet.

22. he gave time to that mate already, good enough

23. This guy is desperate, please look into his case and see if he has grounds. He could have respected the prime minister

24. I'm almost 60 years old, I'm doing it tough too. I'm voting for ScoMo.

25. we have to do this to our politicians. those scums like Barry hussein, Joe and Kamala need togo to gitmo

26. The man is very upset that he’s not being compensated for something, and then the PM goes and drinks a beer. Yep typical

27. How is this newsworthy?
