Flood Victims Dump Their Rubbish On Scott Morrison's Lawn And Demand He Do More To Help

Victims impacted by the floods in the NSW far north have taken matters into their own hands and dumped debris at Scott Morrison’s Sydney home to protest the PM’s plan toward climate action.

More than 3,600 homes across Lismore have been deemed ‘not habitable’ by State Emergency Service assessors following the deluge.

Many residents were also left stranded in the floods due to the lack of resources and emergency services.

Outraged by Morrison's lack of action, protesters brought damaged goods, including artwork, toys, clothes and furniture and dumped them on the PM’s lawn at Kirribilli House.

Many protests also held up signs that read, ‘Morrison your climate megaflood destroyed our homes’, ‘Your climate inaction killed my neighbour’ 'Funding fossil fuels = climate disasters' and ‘Lismore now, where next?’

Lismore residents also vented their fury over the PM not speaking to the community when he travelled to the region.

Melveena Martin told ABC News: “To think that our Prime Minister came to our town and wouldn't even speak to us and hid from us is absolutely deplorable.”

Acting New South Wales Premier Paul Toole urged victims impacted by the floods ‘go and protest’.

"We are in a democratic society and people are free to go and protest but what people are concerned about here in the northern rivers is actually getting a roof over your heads," he said.

Despite Morrison admitting it’s become ‘harder’ to live in Australia due to the climate disasters, the Federal Government continues to invest in fossil fuel companies emitting considerable amounts of greenhouse gasses.

Scott Morrison’s response to the floods was also slammed after he announced in Lismore earlier in March, that the Australian defence force wouldn't be ‘available’ to help with rescue missions.

The Prime Minister hit back against the criticism, telling news.com: “To deploy nationally positioned forces around the country, and mobilise them with the country, and mobilise them with the equipment and the heavy equipment and the supplying and the provisioning, that … You can’t just turn that off and on.”

Following the protests by Lismore residents, an independent inquiry has been announced and will look into the aftermath of the east coast floods and government’s response.

Mr Toole said of the inquiry: "We need a better response going into the future.”
