Weasel

A slippery political survivor who mastered spin and deflection.

Scott Morrison, Australia's Prime Minister from 2018 to 2022, became notorious for avoiding accountability — most infamously holidaying in Hawaii during catastrophic bushfires while Australia burned. His revelation that he had secretly appointed himself to multiple ministerial portfolios without telling colleagues or the public cemented his reputation as a self-interested political operator who prioritised personal power over transparency. His trademark 'I don't hold a hose, mate' deflection and relentless spin over substance make the weasel a natural fit.
