Australian ex-PM Scott Morrison censured by country’s parliament
Australia’s former prime minister Scott Morrison listed his achievements in government as he unsuccessfully argued against being censured by the parliament for secretly amassing multiple ministerial powers.
The centre-left Labor Party government introduced to the House of Representatives a rare censure motion against Mr Morrison for taking the unprecedented steps of appointing himself to five ministerial roles between March 2020 and May 2021, usually without the knowledge of the existing minister.
