Prime Minister Scott Morrison has acknowledged the "heartbreak" faced by Australians stuck overseas during the pandemic, insisting home quarantine will eventually become widespread.
The Prime Minister acknowledged how frustrating and difficult it had been for manyIn a video message to an awards ceremony held by a global network for Australian expats, Advance.org, Mr Morrison said they had carried a "very heavy burden" over the past year and a half."It's tough, living through a pandemic, and being separated from your family, and that's brought its own heartbreak.
Good news all round then, umm on the front that is...?” 💖💖
The PM, 🇦🇺 media & State Govt's used offshore Aussies as political fodder for their onshore power-plays. While StrandedAussies were literally dying of Covid in hotspots while trying to get home, onshore Aussies were going to pubs, concerts, the footy. HumanRightsViolations
If he is promising, don’t hold your breath.
All StrandedAussies want is for ScottMorrisonMP to 'sacrifice' the Prime Ministership
Hoax. How many times did Morrison promise to all Australian Citizens, he just keep on lying on us and keep on spinning , until he runs out of ideas. Why not call f the election now and see and proof that people’s are believing him or not.
Are they the people he said he would have home by last Xmas
Yeah….which Christmas this time
I have started to think that between his advisors, infantile public statements and poorly handled Q&As, that those behind The Wizard's Curtain are really starting to take the piss, big time; he's too ridiculous now to take seriously...
ScottMorrisonMP actions speak louder than words. Bring our ADF members home from Dubai. It is an insult to all ADF members and families to have them there.
Too many marketing slogans
About time! however, as an Australian stuck overseas, I am happy to know my country has been relatively safe from Covid. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. I'll be on the first available flight, I miss my friends and my family.
Finally some common dog thinking (pragmatic)…especially since most coming back will already be fully vaxxed (unlike in Oz at this time).
Really? Because I didn't hear him thanking us for being on the receiving end of what was the cruelest, most incompetent, most exploitative possible policies implemented by him, nor a promise to open the border fully for us to return without insane restrictions. No self awareness.
This guy has no shame.
But…but…but… he said all stranded Aussies would be home last Christmas. Chances of it happening this Christmas 👀🙊
19maddie08 Do they actually have homes to come back to? Couch surfing quarantine with Grandma? FFS! 😡😡😡
The same international students are waiting and believing on your words from last 2 years, let them complete their studies and proactive part in Australia.
Home quarantine..... another name for shirking quarantine costs and responsibilities.
19maddie08 this man has no morals. he will say ANYTHING to anyone anywhere as long as it serves him.
Sacrifice implies choice. The was none. They are victims.
…and we would really, really like to be able to thank him for his sacrifices and selfless efforts…oh wait…
It is not possible to sacrifice something unwillingly. Why gaslight Australians doing it tough? What is wrong with him? ScottMorrisonMP auspol
What an absolute joke that man is. Sadly you can’t believe a word he says. I just want to see my mum and brother and Sister.
Did you enjoy Father’s Day? They didn’t overseas
But allows actors and other players into the country. Money talk
He is a troll
Another promise where Morrison does nothing and someone else does the work and bears the consequences.
I can not believe that there are still Australians stranded overseas. This has been going on for eighteen months? Why are celebrities, sports people, etc. being allowed into Australia before Australians are brought home?
Alternative Headline; PM Thanks Australians he left stranded for being sacrificial lambs overseas. And Promises them that Home quarantine is on the way for them upon arriving home, (when he gets his memory back that they exist) But then so is Christmas On the way, that is.
And meanwhile that dried up evil cow Kate Hopkins has come and gone.
The government has the money to buy F-35, but it can‘t bring citizens back from overseas.What are you trying to say here, ABC?
Thanks for the sacrifices you made because I didn’t secure vaccines or build quarantine centres (which Australia USED to have). And it’s so hard to miss out on family events. Which is why I flew home on a private jet at taxpayers expense. What is this man on…?
You acknowledge the heartbreak. Whoopdi doo. You have no fucking idea. My heart is broken missing my son for 3 years and missing his 40th. So glad you got to see your kids on father's day. Hypocrite.
He only means Mathias Cormann.
More PR for the liberals,,, Ita is doing a great job giving them free press
Could an image be any more curated or wrong; the didgeridoo, the picture of the queen, the Australian flag the smug Scott & yet the crease in the collar alludes to the wrongness of it all!
utterly useless
An empty vessel makes the most sound… old proverb
I would imagine that Australian citizens locked out of their own country will be relieved to know that the Prime Minister was thinking of their sacrifice as he returned to NSW for Father's Day
.ScottMorrisonMP auspol
I have friends who have lost years of savings, who are living on a coach or in a car, who have been waiting to come home for over 18 months. Morrison promised they would be home last Christmas. Morrison is a liar.
They don't need his 'Thanks', they need his proper APOLOGY and a safe route back home ASAP.
niche marketing aka divide and conquer!Why is this newsworthy?whats changed?
Well the Australian government failed it's citizens stranded overseas since Covid began, it would have taken little effort to fly them home. This government has not developed any policies and a close look shows the PM is just all spin. Vote them out next time.
Ohhh the irony i think everyone else has pretty much covered it
What about Australian who are stuck here with LNP? When could we go and visit our families. Migrant Australians are humans too and not just tax paying slaves.
Just stop with the propaganda please!
I guess the PM believes that once the 80% vaccinated levels are reached the jobs done..wouldn’t it be wise to have purpose built quarantine facilities, appropriately located, to deal with o/seas arrivals and others who may not have a suitable “homes”? auspol
or maybe just run quarantine like the constitution states 🙄. the only thing ScottyDoesNothing is good at it shirking responsibility.
A sacrifice is something you choose, isn't it? Wasn't he supposed to have gotten them all home before last Christmas?
Nooooooo don’t take any risk, give no trust!!!
Cynical, horrible man
Wanker
Yeah people, good on you for sacrificing because Scotty certainly didn't.
Man who cried wolf 🐺
How he has the audacity to EVEN show his face NEVER MIND speak confounds me
DISTRACTION
AustraliaWideMorrisonLied StopTheRotBySackingScott WeAllKnowScottyMustGo
Sack him.
The Libs haven't factored in Australians can vote from overseas.
🤮
How many stranded Aussies have empty houses to return to and complete home quarantine? COVID19Aus auspol
After hotel quarantine being such a raging success we've decided to absolve the Government of any responsibility whatsoever
But in future, if you are going overseas, take up a sport or be a celebrity, that way you can come and go as you please.
Wish he’d sacrifice himself and his government in the interest of bettering Australians
Get a bucket before you watch this jacredd
Haha what does he know - Went to Hawaii when the country was on fire - Said it wasn't a race to get people vaccinated, now more people than ever are getting and dying from the virus sending nearly all of Aus into a lockdown
Didn't he promise that last year? But hey I guess celebrities, the rich, friends of friends are far more important than citizens.
So what happens if the SA trial fails? One more big empty announcement from this hollow man
Over 50 stranded Aussies died, because of this guy's policy. Don't ever forget this.
He has such a twisted view of almost everything.
The proverbial hits the fan over Pfizer and up pops Morrison with a video, no hard questions to face and talks about home quarantine being the solution. You refused to build quarantine facilities, so where else can they go ? Hmmm, given yourself no options, that sounds familiar.
How about family reunification? Many of us haven't met our parents (all r fully vaccinated) even though we have valid reasons. When will that happen?
In September (2020), Prime Minister Scott Morrison said he hoped to have 'as many people home, if not all of them, by Christmas' That was last Christmas btw.
and they would like to 'thank' you for everything you haven't done for them.
Now that announcement is out of the way. Morrison can rest for the next 18 months.
Got a feeling that a lot of them (and their families) are personally going to 'thank' him at the next election.
If they sorted out those vaccines, this all would have not been an issue.
Another announcement from Scotty from marketing, just don't expect delivery... ScottMorrisonMP
don't believe the spin
