$90 Billion Re-election Bid

Everybody stand and give a rousing applause to Scott Morrison and his govt. You just have to hand it to them, the sheer skill that they pull off spin and bullshit has to be admired for its breath taking ruthlessness of the delivery.

It is fairly well agreed that the Morrison govt has screwed everything up they have attempted in the last 12 months from the bush fire response to the pandemic and the vaccine roll out, to the treatment of women, with Morrisons remarkable clueless response to Britney Higgins. 

(That’s not even mentioning that the Liberal Party had increased the debt exponentially before the pandemic hit, which they, of course, will blame on the pandemic.)

A few months ago, that miserable piece of shit Dutton started the narrative, the drums of war with China and the great big lie that we are at war with China, if not stated directly, it certainly was implied, so much so that a couple of members of the great unwashed stopped me in the street to tell me we were, actually, at war with China.

Then, apparently, the end of the war the conservatives started, in Afghanistan happened, and Biden failed at the resolve, and Boris Johnson, stuffing up everything in Great Britain, and they were all looking for a distraction. 

And now we have AUKUS (the irony that is sounds a bit like the slang abbreviation to awkward AWKS, is not lost on me) and the Chinese have been pissed off yet again, and the French were made expendable, and we are making a lovely big announcement of increased military capability to fight the slump in the polls at home war with China that at least the fringe voters who elect Australian governments think we are fighting, all so the empathy deleted Scumo can have a better shot at winning the next election, after his string of most recent failures.

One of the big problems is that our economic future is probably tied to a great extent to the EU and China, the people we have pissed off and keep pissing off to win domestically.
