It just gets weirder today.
"The Prime Minister has now revealed that he did not know his government had knocked back an application from Qatar Airways for dozens of extra flights into Australia, after incorrectly telling parliament he had discussed the matter with
Virgin Australia before the decision.
Transport Minister Catherine King made the Captain’s call without the Prime Minister’s knowledge – a matter the government insists is standard practice."
Are they positioning King to take the fall. And what is with all the Hansard quotes when the PM was specifically asked about it. Misleading Parliament surely.
