Scott Morrison has become Australia’s highest-flying new Prime Minister, spending more than $3 million on international flights and accommodation during his first 15 months in office.in his first year in office than each of his predecessors.
Figures released by the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet and Defence show Scott Morrison’s State Visit to the United States of America was his most expensive international trip, costing $527,840, including $328,176 in Royal Australian Air Force flights.The visit, in September 2019, was the first abroad by a Prime Minister onboard the new KC-30A aircraft, dubbed ‘Shark One’ by Scott Morrison’s aides.
The spokesperson said the travel schedule included “additional trips to the usual Prime Ministerial schedule” and did not include deducting the cost of journalists accompanying the Prime Minister on overseas visits.EPA “I mean, I don't think it's a question of ‘either’ ‘or’, I look forward to a time where you can do both.”
Dumb and dumber..in no particular order 😎👍
Mr Morrison just saying or typing them words makes me feel ashamed, ashamed for what this country once was, and now has become a blatinly corrupt institution where the media's propaganda and big corporations lay awast to spineless greedy cowards,who care nothing about any of us.
Good thing we can't afford social security for people
RonniSalt 42k for a day trip to Auckland
LyndaFrench19 Morrison travel overseas how many times Also Morrison start 2020 went overseas holiday when bushfire was hit regional Australia so Morrison said also when virus spreading fast Morrison said Australia will be ok has Murdoch lost their memory?
Another example of poor state of journalism in Australia. At least there’s a list of where he went. But no analysis of whether trips were valuable or what he did at any of them. There’s no view as to which ones were unjustified just an insinuation the cost was 2 much.
Salesman to the end.
RonniSalt No value for money with this bloke. Time to wake Australians. He’s full of slogans with no substance. The money never materialised during bushfires. Just setting up his mates for future rorts.
But can't make a trip to parliament
RBJRON With ScuMo it's all perks, no job.
So the family vacation to Hawaii via New York is not part of it.
The biggest rorter around!
We are not all in this together. He is just out to get whatever he can, like all the politicians ScottMorrisonMP australia auspol coronavirus ScottyFromMarketing
Businessman and bankers fly more than this. He's the head of a country so it makes sense he should be out and about.
RonniSalt Need to see breakdown. Hawaii in there? Any other Hawaii’s in there?
17 international trips to 19 nations. Is it just me? It doesn’t read well
And
He came back with giant smirk each return.
Leaner, grifter, bum JobShirker He is useless beyond belief.
RonniSalt ScottyFromMarketing loves a photo op
WGAF? More importantly these trips will not be happening: Australian ISIS brides and their children trapped in Syria WON'T be brought back home. SBS parasites can organise a whip around in their staff canteen
Scotty is a frequent flyer tart...
samesam02 Doesn’t know how to use zoom!!! 🤦♂️
ScottyLovesThePerks
That's more often than once a month. No wonder he's missing half the time. All that jet lag!
What a dull story.
How is this fucking news ? He is the prime minister that is his bloody job ...
That’s our money.
The PM most concerns whether he is forgot by the world. Not people on this land.
And hardly any trips to his actual place of work.
If only he had got lost on the way back ... AustraliasMostUnwanted
He is the Prime Minister for goodness sake, where do you think he should go?
And the problem is ?
RonniSalt
And now this
Perhaps it’s a carry over from his highly successful Tourism job?
No wonder it feels like he’s always on holidays
After missing out for all those years, Scotty, Jen and the kids can finally get to all the exotic destinations they could only ever dream about ... on the taxpayer coin. Their Jesus rewards the prosperous.
Look to be fair given the revolving door of PM’s in Australia’s recent history, he really is just acting like a kid on his gap year on a European Kontiki tour trying to pack in as many countries as possible before year and time’s up and he has to get an education or a real job.
RonniSalt And annoyingly he came back each and every sodding time...
He certainly didn't spend the time fixing the problems in private aged care, after the deaths in Sydney in March.
RonniSalt Where the bloody hell wasn’t he?
How many days in Parliament? ScottMorrisonPM
🤬🤬🤬🤬 MorrisonMustGo
Biggest spending PM ever. And how many friends of his tagged along Does that include ALL of his holidays?
JBell100099 No wonder he didn't have time to have parliament sit. auspol MSM
Of course he did. ScottMorrisonMP thinks he’s something special but having spent over 30 years working in proximity to Australian & Foreign Prime Ministers, Presidents, Royalty and International Statesmen I can assure you that he’s little more than a blowhard wanna be! auspol
Great to see him doing his job. You can’t negotiate international trade agreements from the office.
KleinRevd Tweedle Dumb n Tweedle Dumber
phbarratt Grifter and leaner.
and?
This includes Hawaii, right?
But not to China
Wish he stayed in hawaii the muppet
Fly economy Mr Prime Minister.
What a greedy selfish leach; but then, that’s what i’d expect from a member of the liberal party, liberal in spending the nation’s money on a good time for him self and his hangers on.
I'm fine with this, regarless of political party, or how well or poorly they're doing. Of course our PM needs to represent Australia to the global market. I don't know what SBS is insinuating here.
It would be ok if our relationships with important trading partners were improving. But we’ve lost the biggest one, am getting screwed over by our American cousins and haven’t capitalised on the Brexit mess with the UK. So he’s just had a lot of holidays. What a shocker 🙄
All we need in this story now is this handy prop
Dumb and dumber?
This leech is having the time of his life milking it for as much as he can.
Meanwhile $40 a day Newstart.
Loves a holiday
same same
'Scott on holiday'. If there was a movie about his career, that would be the title.
