‘Own goals’: Leigh Sales grills PM

Scott Morrison has been forced to answer for recent scandals and allegations in a tense live interview.

“When you look at the threats to your government‘s survival, they’re almost all own goals, almost all of the incoming fire are from your own missteps or from inside your own party,” ABC 7:30 host Leigh Sales asked Mr Morrison.

“Why would the public trust you with another term as Prime Minister when many people on your own side don’t seem xjmtzywto trust you?”

Mr Morrison redirected the question towards policy talking points rather than discuss criticism from within his own party.

“Leigh, over the last three and a half years, since I took on this job, I said I wanted to keep our economy strong, keep Australians safe and keep Australians together,” Mr Morrison said.

“Now, that is doing what I said I would do and I don’t get distracted by all the other things, because that’s not my job.”
