BREAKING: Former Australian Finance Minister Mathias Cormann has been elected as the next secretary-general of the OECD

The former Liberal Party member, who made his exit from Parliament late last year, will be the Asia-Pacific region’s first head of the Paris-based economic organisation, which represents 37 member countries.

Gerald Butts, vice chairman at geopolitical risk firm Eurasia Group, said the OECD could have chosen leaders who implemented climate policies and carbon prices, calling the move, “Deeply misguided and out of step with the times.” But Liberal MP Dave Sharma described it as an “excellent result” on Twitter, saying Mr Cormann would be “a great asset for the @OECD at a critical time”.

TriggerWarning TriggerWarning

50 calls... he'll be too drained to worry about job keeper ending and have to go on holidays again

Going GREEN for the OECD? Bewitching concept.

Wow! The OECD like Newscorp must have low standards, to employ this grifter

I’m afraid that does not bode well for our planet’s future. The brigade of old white privileged men prevails.

Shame

The OECD is pathetic

Great blow to the Greens, Labor, and daffodil left wing vegetarians. Excellent choice by the OECD

Corrupt!!

Says it all about OECD.

Pathetic! A back to the future choice!

Look at all the head explosions in the comment's. No wonder unemployment is so high in your country.

Hahaha watch the left have a meltdown over this one.

Disgusting 🤮

just another former LNP parasite

What a fuck up

Job for the boys🤮

Smells bad.
