Sky News host James Morrow says despite the censuring former prime minister Scott Morrison “being a very political move by Labor” there’s “really no good explanation” for what Mr Morrison did with the ministerial self-appointments.

Peta Credlin.

“There were elements almost of this Nixonian element to it.”
