When the millions of tonnes of coal they extracted is burnt and the extreme weather events and bushfires it causes rage across Australia our leaders will not take the blame they'll skulk off out the door and hide somewhere else, like Hawaii and pretend it has nothing to do with them. #auspol
Former Prime Minister Scott Morrison fled to Hawaii as soon as it became obvious Australia was being hit by extreme bushfires.When weather events hit, one thing is for sure, Albo will not stay and take the blame. Will he follow ScoMo and sip cocktails on a beach in Hawaii?

Indeed. Labor (and the LNP) really only ‘listen, partner and protect’ US and Israeli interests. Because we as sure as hell aren’t seeing too much listening to Australians, partnering with middle powers to sanction Israel, and protecting Palestinians, or pro-Palestinian protesters at home.
