MatthewKeysLive ScottMorrisonMP The Notre Dame fire couldnt be blamed on the Muslims so now they needed another “attack” to provoke & pitch the Muslim & Christian worlds against each other. Christchurch Mosque attck, Notre Dame “Fire” & this in SriLanka is the product of the same terrorist group.

ScottMorrisonMP This shows everyone but you that governments everywhere recognise the need to develop more and better technology in renewables because fossil fuel is polluting, failing and unsustainable long term. You don't get it? Try harder.

ScottMorrisonMP So what else is new in this world. Nothing. Brainwashed people across the world causing me trouble than its worth. When will this cease.

ScottMorrisonMP What’s your thoughts Waleed and Mehreen

ScottMorrisonMP Say the word. It a MUSLIM terrorist attack. Not saying the word Muslim won't change the fact that importing these violent brainwashed murderers into our country is insanity.

ScottMorrisonMP Don’t we have a foreign minister anymore ? Still playing politics.

ScottMorrisonMP this is what he's been waiting for! lucky it didn't (or hasn't yet) happened here! The more he barfs on, the more likely an attack here though....so he'd better shut the fuck up!

ScottMorrisonMP the first thing you can do is stop the deportation of qld family you are deporting back to srilanka .
