Don't tell me he's telling porkies yet again?.
bald man speaks with porked tongue. :wink:

There was an epidemiologist on The project last night, Kate Langbroek I think tried to lead him to blaming ScoMo.

he was very clear on a few things, one of them was that if the vaccination program was all 'Tickety Boo" it wouldn't have changed a thing as all the young people would still be unvaccinated and the same stuff would have happened.
Goodness me, if you and Professor Eddi didn’t have your heads so far up Scotty’s arse you could see the woods for the trees. The criticism levelled at Scotty from marketing concerned a number of factors:

1. Vaccinations: even Scotty knows he screwed this up big time. It’s worse than Collingwood’s forward line this year (alright maybe not that bad). It’s been shambolic.
2. Vaccinations: when a person says that even if we got a lot vaccinated it wouldn’t have mattered coz kids spread it then that is a further condemnation of just how tardy the roll out has been. In the UK they had a system of using unused vaccines to the next available. Mr marketing has failed this marketing endeavour big time.
3. Accommodation. Even you stated a long time ago we needed some form of NT style accommodation. Hotel quarantine is for hotel tourists not for quarantining people. As you know Scotty has now decided it’s a good idea after the horse has bolted.
4. Communication: Messaging and marketing. This has been a dogs breakfast from mixed messages, to Ministers giving conflicting advice to being so slow and tardy. The first role of Government in a pandemic like situation is to provide clear unambiguous advice and information. Unfortunately your mate Scotty has wanted to politicise everything that he missed some significant opportunities.

Under pressure Scotty from Marketing is found wanting.

BTW did u catch-up with the Hillsong Stui (Stuart Robert) while up ScoMo’s Arse?

Source for that lie please. Put up or shut up.

(Last I heard Dan Andrews was patiently waiting his turn, as he's not old enough to be in a high priority group. He is on record saying he fully intends to get vaccinated when it is his turn.)

When other leaders, with the exception of Ana, were leading by example he made a big song and dance about not jumping the queue...Aka I have no faith in the vaccine so I’m not going to lead people towards the vaccine but lead those who don’t want it...


Also interesting he said rather than publicise it, he’d release a photo when he had it done, yeah...Although luckily for him he bought himself 6 months with his <snip> fall. Now he’s eligible I’d assume he’d have led by example and rushed out there on Friday.

Given most anti-vaxxers are Liberal voters, he's probably actually done wonders for the cause by not doing a photo op. :lol:

I see after Dopey made a big song and dance last year about not playing politics during a pandemic his deputy and treasurer are going full on political whinging and blame shifting.

So after the narrative being pushed by leftist sooks is the rest of the world is getting vaccinated and moving on, I see the UK is actually worsening.

You are dealing with Eddie you know. He and the truth are in different hemispheres.
