Australia's Prime Minister for photo opportunities just copped one fair in the cobblers from outgoing Australian of the Year, Grace Tame:A prime minister who lives by the photo op dies by the photo op – and Grace Tame owes Scott Morrison nothing This was the Scott Morrison who told the march of sexual violence survivors and their allies who Tame accompanied to Parliament House that the women were lucky to have not been “met with bullets”. The Scott Morrison who ignored key recommendations in the Respect@Work report, the Morrison who did not demote the minister who called alleged rape victim Brittany Higgins “a lying cow”. On Tuesday, Grace Tame demonstrated in a single photo shoot an understanding of power that goes deeper than even a sitting prime minister’s. What a warrior. What a great Australian.
