"I think they're unwise views, I think they're dangerous views … I don't think parents should be listening to them," Scott Morrison said on Wednesday."His views are not the government's views.Mr Christensen is no stranger to controversies, often speaking at anti-vaccination rallies and campaigning for fringe issues.
Mr Morrison said he was also discussing Mr Christensen's role as the chair of federal parliament's Trade and Investment Committee with Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce. Labor has attacked the government over its handling of Mr Christensen's comments, with home affairs spokesperson Kristina Keneally labelling the Prime Minister's response as "weak"."[The PM's] own MPs don't care what he says [and] are undermining public health messages — right when [Australia's] COVID infection rates are at their worst.
The upcoming election will see LNP candidate Andrew Willcox , take on Labor candidate and coal miner Shane Hamilton. Mr Christensen appeared alongside Mackay Mayor Greg Williamson, Dawson LNP candidate Andrew Willcox and Barnaby Joyce at an event in Mackay last week.
He sounds like a COVID promoter.
Well, there’s one thing you can say about the Member for Manila, he’s got guts. His tailor must make a fortune out of him.
No the rest of their failures will
The MP for Manila?
George Christensen's anti-vax comments could boost votes for 'populist fringe right'. However it will cost the LNP the vote of 'reasonable' voters.
A great boost for Philippines tourism.
Hopefully Scotts hypocrisy will hurt them all at the polls
As far as I’m aware, he has gone.
yep,just another one from the LNP sicking ship
He who controls the the Unvaccinated controls the universe
Probably not. Seriously can’t get any worse than the current rock bottom.
He is not contesting the next election due to his party making everything near impossible to get done unless the members are part of the boys club in Parliament, George is just playing his own games with them now
Damage was done before member for the Philippines flapped his stupid trap
Huawei my new $4 ,handset is made in China .Closure of A.T.S.I.C, offering Houso, No-el Pearson, Steve Irwin, exclusivity,to ASSET'S/Dollars.Dickson, 43 to Petrie 0.9 ? ABUSE OF POWER..WTF isn't made,in XHnews1 ? Dutton
i don't like the LNP but anyone else think Christensen is doing this on purpose to hurt the LNP? like he doesn't have to worry about his re-election since he's retiring, like the guy who's given his notice and is causing trouble until he leaves
Let's hope so.
Let’s hope so.
He tried to warn against vaccinating kids. Should be praised
I sincerely hope his behaviour hurts their chances.
If they don’t dump him then perhaps
No. Most people vote for their party of affiliation consistently, and the fickle swing voters abandoned the fringe LNP for UAP / ON long ago.
I fuckin hope so.
Hope so
When Pauline Hansen's One Nation Party sought funding from the NRA her vote went UP! Saying, and doing, stupid shit in that part of the world only makes you more popular.
Nope .. he, and people like Joyce, Canavan represent those that vote for them perfectly.. They are no longer the party of farmers and bush folk .. they are the party of mining interests , conspiracy theorists, talkback radio outrage and people that hate difference and tolerance.
I certainly hope so
Yep
Nope. LNP supporters. That's the tweet.
I don't know how people will vote, but this lazy good for nothing has to go, he has swanned around for a long time not earning his keep and causing trouble with his childish stunts, posing with a gun and a whip & now feeding people dangerous false information.
Hope so!
LNP are finished
You really have to query the integrity of many of the liberal voters as well as how much they actually know about liberal party policies.
Of Course NO! When you have all the Commercial Media in Aus' in your pocket, stories like this get buried and we just get puff pieces like this👇 newscorpaus Channel7 Channel9 are already falling in line. It's going to be months now of attacks on AustralianLabor not George.
George 'hurt the polls*? He is a small reminder of the stupidity & corruption of current Oz government, that's all. ScottyDoesNothing
Congratulation George you been very honest about the bullshit virus in your party
'Look George has been a naughty boy but he continues to provide strong representation for the members of Manil....err Dawson'
Liberal Coalition in the last year - Anti vaccine and Anti climate change . Christensen is just the tip of the LNP fact denying iceberg.
That must be the longest tie in all of Queensland. 😳
Remember the initial dose was approved for emergency use because the risk of COVID outweigh the risks of vaccine. Are the risks still now balanced by the risks of 4 doses of vaccine? Omicron was only found 58 days ago?
Health First and Staying Safe. Scott Morrison is always in survival mode as nothing else matters to him.
Nope, people that follow George are already munted.
Probably
Oh diddly Dee.. it's a journos life for me 🎵 Where I live in a 🎶 bubble like a clueless Dweeb.
据澳大利亚广播公司当地时间24日报道，根据此前澳大利亚联邦政府公布的针对各州和领地的新冠疫苗分配和接种计划，计划中对阿斯利康疫苗需求量在10月后将明显下降，意味着联邦政府将逐步淘汰使用英国阿斯利康疫苗，以美国辉瑞、莫德纳疫苗为主。
“最早披露澳大利亚龙虾绕道香港偷进中国的澳大利亚广播公司曾报道说，……很多商品都曾绕道东南亚国家进入中国，以逃避关税。” 偷渡，绕道，逃税，不以为耻反以为荣。 西媒的新闻道德败坏至此了吗？
Let's hope so.
with any luck.
No , it's already hurt badly as it is by the Gang of 4, Scomo JosFry PetDut BarJo
Only naïve fools & ideologues would vote for the LNP Looks like they will get re-elected then?
Cool story! For balance, can we have a hit piece about Labor or the Greens? Oh that’s right…
Wouldn't it be a far better question to ask whether the LNP will do away with morons like Christensen? Wouldn't it be far better to ask 'Is this calbre of moron going to be the best politician that any poarty can provide'?
idiot
Honestly LNP and ALP are both trash
How come this man was preselected. No other LNP rep to run against him. Says a lot for electorate.
YES
I think its neutral or a small win. His seat has a significant margin. The gain might be from the rub off of a more acceptable member. However Scomo is so on the nose it wont show up.
No, because no one pays any attention to the mad utterings of deluded fools. Roll on the next election so we can breathe clear air once again.
I don't think so
Anyone can do it.
No because it all comes back to them via dodgy preferences deals. The RWNJ vote UAP PON who give preferences to the liar party
He just doesn’t care. Except for his followers.
George Christensen...🤢🤮
Abc should title this how they really think 'we hope George Christensen's latest controversy hurt the LNP at the polls'
Not sure anything will alter their current trajectory
No , no way. The alternative is worse.
pompus twat
I spew a little in my mouth every time I realise a portion of my tax dollars go to him.
Oh please, you want to use him as a scapegoat. The party has enough f ups to last the next 3 elections
We hope so😡
If people are still willing to support the LNP after all that's happened since December 2019, then nothing George does will make the slightest difference.
I hope it hurts them bigtime
If the media report more on the DumpsterFire and less 'Scott said...' There was no 'reprimand' btw, only 'disagree', with zero consequences
George is retiring and he’s gonna “burn the house down” on his way out.
No scott &rest of LNPDeathCult screwing it up all on their own
How about if ABC did its job holding Scumo to account. I’m sure that would put a dent in his auspol election prospects. DO YOUR JOB ABC.
No, he's not standing for the next election
hope so
If anything it should hell their cause. MP’s should be able to have differing opinions in support of the Australian people. Get a grip: It’s not all about keeping the vaccinated safe!!!!!!!!
The only Polls he'll hurt are the ones he spends his time staring at in Manila
Is it just me or does his tie look abnormally long? Like it doesn't look right
Hope so 🤣
Omg can you imagine at his massive Size the shit show it will be when he gets Covid it’s simple Mathematics every last one of us will get it I’m just gonna sit back & watch Karma when his turn comes around 😒 MorrisonFailure auspol Christensen moron Karma Fact
Will Morrison lose his vote and thus the confidence of the house
