About this episode
Scott Morrison has left the building.
The former prime minister was known for his finely crafted personal image, a dad from the shire who loved rugby league.
But Morrison’s career was more notorious than that. From being the minister who forged ahead with robodebt, to proudly displaying a trophy for “stopping the boats” and famously saying he wouldn’t hold a hose during the bushfires.
So, who really was he?
Today, author of The Game, Sean Kelly on Scott Morrison’s final speech, and whether he really won or lost at the game of politics.
