Description: This was meant to be the week the Prime Minister steadied the ship after a tough summer, made some mea culpas and re-focused attention. Instead – the government has been mired in a whodunnit over a leaked text exchange between Gladys Berejiklian and an unnamed Minister – in which Scott Morrison is labelled horrible and a complete psycho. But just as Ministers were insisting Scott Morrison is in fact a fine fellow – another scathing text emerged. This one from Barnaby Joyce nearly a year ago – in which he calls the Prime Minister a liar and a hypocrite. The Deputy PM has apologised – but rather than fronting up this morning to explain why he felt that way - he's pulled out of his scheduled appearance on today's program. And as if these character assaults weren't enough bad news for the government – the crisis in the aged care sector only deepened.
