Now the dust has settled, and the Albonese Labor Government is firmly established in Canberra, it may be worth looking back at the previous Coalition mob led by Morrison to determine if they are worth trusting with the reins of power in the foreseeable future. Not forgetting the Coalition front bench is made up of mostly Morrison acolytes, starting with Dutton and ending with Littleproud and the guy who would be Treasure Angus Taylor.

Back in March 2022 Richard Denniss of the influential policy think tank "The Australia Institute' had published in 'The Saturday Paper' an opinion piece which highlighted the litany of economic and political lies Morrison had been peddling in his time in office. We should not forget Morrison may have been the mouthpiece for the lies of the Coalition, but he was ably assisted by his cohorts, people like Dutton, Littleproud and Taylor. Morrison may be almost gone, Frydenburg is gone, but the enablers of the Morrison deceitfulness still remain, they are sitting on Dutton's front bench, and are trying to present themselves as an alternative government. For me, not in my lifetime.

Get ready for Morrison's so-called lies to be over-pontificated by the Leftie bandwagon !
Will the Institute also reveal the part played by uncooperative, sabotage orientated Leftie bureaudroids & journalists ?
Morrison shouldn't have let us down so miserably but he should not be made the scape goat for all that transpired.

It's a well-established fact that Morrison constantly lied and obfuscated and there are a number of exhaustive lists available on the internet.

All politicians lie to some degree but Morrison went much further.

Because he knows he personally can't be trusted he failed to trust others and that's why he kept his extra Ministerial appointments secret from his own colleagues and even his infamous Hawaii holiday was meant to be kept secret from the public except that he was recognised and photographed by a fellow Australian.
Even then he lied about intending to return immediately and even lied about lying.

Hi rache,

Spot on as usual, its a well established fact that Morrison lied, as did his ministers on all matters, social, economic, personal, if it was up for a lie a lie Morrison had one, It was a government of compulsive liars.

This thread is about the future, there we have the Dutton mob today offering themselves as an alternative government. CAN WE TRUST THEM NOT TO LIE? Much of the attention was on Morrison, but he had a bunch of enablers as well, people like Dutton, Taylor, Cash, Reynolds, Littleproud, Joyce, its a very long list. Given the opportunity the very same reprobates that made up the Morrison government would be returned to power. I don't believe the Australian people deserve that, and the Dutton Mob certainly can't be trusted not to lie! Given the track record so far the next election looks a gimme for LABOR.

The Age of Morrison is definitely behind us.

"A bully with no moral compass," is the way government
senator Concetta Fierravanti-Wells described Morrison in
her blistering attack. Barnaby Joyce's leaked text messages
told us what Joyce thought of Morrison - "a hypocrite and
a liar," Ï never trusted him," and Gladys Berejiklian
described Morrison as a "horrible person."

We've all read volumes of what the man did wrong. His record
has been exposed. Will Morrison still be in politics after
his term on the back-bench finishes? Will his electorate
re-elect him?

In the speech Morrison gave to his church -
Morrison said - not to place trust in the institution of
government itself. Trust in God. And by taking his Pentecostal
rhetoric to such heights - Morrison may have won the approval
of his fellow church members - but possibly his Liberal MPs would be
less enthused.

Former leaders can still have a meaningful role to play if
they wish. We can only look back to what others have done in
the past (and still continue to do). People from
Gough Whitlam, Malcolm Fraser, Rudd,
Gillard, Howard - and so on.

Former leaders enjoy private offices, staff, and travel
privileges subsidised by the public. They retain their
extensive high-level contacts and enjoy an enormous public
platform from which to speak. If they appear magnanimous,
generous, and "above" daily politics, they can become a
reassuring and encouraging presence within their partisan
community.

But by urging his audience not to trust the institutions of
government as Morrison as done - he's breaking with PM convention
and his belief in "miracles," just may prove to be miss-placed.

Typical of the village idiot to post a polemic from a Left whinge blog and pretend that it has some merit.

How are Albozo's lies going? how about lowering electricity prices by $270 per family? Epic fail.

Juliar didn't manage to keep a single promise, and KRudd lied about maintaining the Pacific solution and maintaining a conservative fiscal position.

Labor and the gangreens don't have a leg to stand on with regards lies or breaking promises.
