Hawaiian Shirts With Scott Morrison’s Face Being Sold With Proceeds Going To Volunteer Firefighters

Hawaiian Shirts With Scott Morrison’s Face Being Sold With Proceeds Going To Volunteer Firefighters

The whereabouts of the Prime Minister are still a mystery.

Australia is still wondering where its leader is as rumours continue to circulate that he's in America somewhere.

But, if you're heading into your Christmas party with a bit of resentment about the absent Prime Minister then you can turn you anger into a bit of a fun joke.

Sydney-based shirt brand Mr Koya has designed a bunch of Hawaiian shirts with Scott Morrison's face on it to poke fun at the rumour that he and his family have taken a well earned break to Hawaii.

While the price tag of $70 is a bit rough, the brand has revealed that 100 per cent of the sales will go to volunteer firefighting organisations.

Mr Koya writes: "Australia is reeling from an unprecedented bushfire emergency, and to rub coal into the wound, the Prime Minister has smirk-bombed his way to Hawaii for a refreshing mai tai.

"To mark this momentous abrogation of responsibility, MR. KOYA has created the Mahalo ScoMo - an enduring combination of Hawaiian vibes, simpering leadership vacuums, and the colours of an increasingly-combustible Australian summer."

If you haven't heard about all this kerfuffle regarding the Prime Minister's whereabouts then buckle up because it's a doozy.

Politicians and commentators have been defending Scott Morrison's decision to take his wife and two kids on a holiday, however his office is staying tight lipped about where they've gone.

While the taking of a well earned break isn't unheard of, at a time when Australia is burning and enduring one of the worst bushfire seasons on record people reckon ScoMo could have delayed the jaunt overseas.

Many people have asked 'what can the Prime Minister do exactly' to help the situation, which is true: our country's leader can't jump on the fire front and start dousing the flames with water. But it's never a good look when the country you're supposed to be in charge of is enduring an emergency and you're nowhere to be seen.

Mr Morrison has even been called a hypocrite after old footage of him on Q&A showed him lambasting then Victorian Police Commissioner Christine Nixon for having dinner when the Black Saturday bushfires were unfolding in 2009.

"She's clearly made a bad judgement call," Mr Morrison told the audience.

"That happens to people from time to time but this was a very serious issue and I think there are very serious concerns in the community about exercising judgement.

"It's incumbent on all of us in public life to make decisions following that in the best interests of the ongoing nature of the program."

No doubt there will be a lot of questions for Mr Morrison when he arrives back from wherever he's been.
