Reference : - Despite being out of the country at present , Mr Morrison has already denied any responsibility for the Robodebt catastrophe .
Dear Mr Morrison , Sir ,
Gee , that report by the Robodebt Commissioner sure does you no favors . Even members of your own party are screaming for your resignation .... those traitors . Not Mr Dutton , of course , you will always be able to rely on his support , no matter what . Mr Dutton , like you , retains his ( now sadly old fashioned ) belief in loyalty . Like the loyalty you showed to Mr Turnbull that time his leadership was challenged . At times like this you should remind yourself of those words of gratitude Mr Turnbull spoke , " Good on you Scomo " , a few minutes before you were forced to take his job from him for the good of the ruling coalition .
Anyway , I hope you are enjoying your well deserved holiday in Europe . At least the antipodes are not burning to ash during this vacation , so you don't have nosy journalists trying to find out where you are . I would recommend staying away from France though , the riots and demonstrations are out of control and most of the country appears to be on fire . Unfortunately that's what happens when the lefties get out of control . And of course , Mr Macron might hold a grudge after he unfairly accused you of being a liar , so you couldn't rely on him to get you out of trouble if you found yourself in a burning Citroen surrounded by an angry mob .
I did enjoy your letter responding to that awful Robodebt report . Some folk , even in the coalition , have hinted that it was devoid of any contrition , and are demanding your resignation . But Mr Morrison , stand firm , there is nothing for you to be contrite about .
That commission was nothing more than a show trial for the left . You were rudely interrupted 25 times when you were giving evidence , and slated for obfuscating . Three times you were silenced for trespassing into areas of parliamentary privilege , once by your own lawyer for heaven's sake . The whole thing was a farce .
Do you think your name might appear in that sealed section of the report that recommends legal proceedings against certain players ? Perhaps it might be wise to stay in Europe until the whole thing blows over . The media has a short attention span , and in a few months nobody will even remember who you are . That unfairly persecuted entrepreneur chap , Christopher Skase , found a pleasant location in Majorca to lie low until the clamoring hoards dispersed , and I hear the weather is most clement in Spain at this time of the year .
If you like , we can keep an eye on the situation down under , and give you the nod when everybody has calmed down . ( Doubtless you are a regular reader of the Sky Reply . )
Meanwhile , have a great holiday , and banish from your mind any thoughts of having your life destroyed by punitive and financially crippling legal action upon your return .
Your comrade , Ken .
PS . By the way , where are you ?
