EXCLUSIVE: NSW Police have slapped former Prime Minister Tony Abbott with a $500 fine after he was photographed maskless in Manly.

The infringement notice was issued after he was snapped chatting with a friend at the beach by a concerned bystanderThe woman made a statement to Manly police on Friday morning and also supplied photographs of the alleged breach.

It’s not the first time he’s been dobbed into police over alleged breaches. In December, he was cleared by police after residents spotted him on a bike ride that appeared to be outside his zone of residence on the northern beaches. At the time, NSW police investigated but said he was not in breach of any health orders at that time.

The person who took the photograph of Mr Abbott told news.com.au that Mr Abbott was still chatting without his mask after they returned from a dip in the ocean around 9am.“Nothing says mockdown more than an ex-PM flaunting around without a mask,” she said.

At least he wasn't drink driving

MSMWatchdog2013 The AG WILL SCRAP THAT FINE for t. Abbot,hardship.

Wear a mask and keep people alive. Don’t bag health promoting people. very weak Tony Abbot. gaslighting. Disgrace.

Once proudly advocated & encouraged Aussies to dob people in, cries it's unAustralian to dob and snitch. Life catches up fast Tony. Sucked. In. You reap what you sow.

It’s un Australian to dob in catholic pedophile priests.

drstip Should have been more.

call_me_tomasso And he's had a whinge about it too, the numpty

he also got fined $500 on each of these occasions

State of snitching

Pay that will you Lachlan.

And I thought Victoria was bad..

If you see someone breaking the law and dob or snitch them in. That's a civic thing to do for any law abiding citizens. Unlike in China dobbers earn brownny social credits from their comrades.

Bet he fights it.

Oh well as Abbott once said ''sometimes shit happens'. Does he have a paid job? Never mind, he can pay the fine from his taxpayer funded parliamentary pension!

So police don't have to be there .. just get photos from the public dobbers .

Wtf what about all the other people wandering around Manly last weekend without masks 🤦‍♀️

Come on, fair go. Have any of you tried to wear a mask after eating a raw onion?

Great to see police don't play favourites

MSMWatchdog2013 Good onya NSW Pol! This is not a ‘whoop-se-daises’ moment, it is a moment of cultural and political failure .. a moment of privilege and arrogance.

Judetomyfriends Surprised to find police in Manly, thought they were busy in the Western suburbs hounding the working people, not the privileged ex-politico class!

MSMWatchdog2013 In fairness he was probably just about to reach into his pocket for an onion.

Ridiculous and petty

MisdaMagoo LockHimUp

northway_debbie Good

He can pay that out of the money he saved on his power bill.

Oh,... Jesus. Speaking of the NSW police whom are still not fully vaccinated nswpolice

Lol.

Alternative Headline: HonTonyAbbott models new range of face masks. If only someone would explain how to properly wear them he wouldn’t have been fined $500. auspol WearAMask Australia

ComedianJonas Thought it was a Gotcha moment macsween_prue Sir Tones is above the law

‘Hiding place for cowards’: Police chief looks beyond COVID challengeAnalysis: When someone gets the plum job as the boss, there is usually a honeymoon period that allows the recipient to settle in. However, for Victoria’s 23rd chief commissioner, Shane Patton, it lasted just over a week, writes John Silvester. We will never forget that one of your regular front page advertisers regularly promotes anti social and illegal behaviour. Yet you are still happy to take his money. I don't think the Age can claim any high ground anymore. If you are shooting the public with rubber bullets shouldn't there be some kind of responsibility taken? Some kind of consequence? Just doing my job hasnt been accepted through out history, why would it be now?
