SYDNEY, July 15 — Australian prime minister Scott Morrison has broken his silence on a persistent rumour that he soiled himself in a McDonald’s restaurant more than 20 years ago, insisting today it was “utter rubbish.”
Social media users have long bandied about a tale that the now-leader soiled himself at the fast-food outlet in suburban Sydney after watching his favourite rugby league team, the Cronulla Sharks, lose the grand final in 1997.
While being interviewed on a breakfast radio show about his conservative government’s coronavirus response, Morrison abruptly decided to squash the rumour — which has turned “Engadine Maccas” into internet folklore.
“Hey, can I clear up one thing with you guys from ages ago?” he asked the KIIS 1065 radio hosts, who confirmed he was preparing to discuss defecation.
“It is the biggest urban myth ever, it never happened. It is complete and utter rubbish,” Morrison said.
“I found the whole thing incredibly amusing, and we’ve always joked about it... as I’ve driven past it on occasion, do you wanna pop in for a Big Mac?”
Morrison went on to insist again that the story was false.
“Some of the funniest yarns are the ones that aren’t true, and that’s one of them.” — AFP

kt notes:
Too bad Scomo, you are not quite on par with Malaysian PM Mahia on the issue of 'shitting bricks'. Just recently, Mahia officially announced he's unable to meet the Malaysian King because he was 'whistling' in the dunny, indeed for quite a while.
😀😁😂😅😆😈
Wakakakakaka…
ReplyDeleteToo much oz colloquialism!
Not many could understand.
Even if Morrison did soil himself , that was 20 years ago.
ReplyDeleteEven convicted murderers and rapists get to walk out of jail free as a bird after 20 years (in countries like Australia that have no Death Penalty) , so an incident like that is nothing to hold against him.
WHO'S HOLDING WHAT AGAINST MORRISON, WAKAKAKA - LIGHTEN UP LAH

Malaysian PM Najib stricken with E. coli infection

The Prime Minister of Malaysia has contracted an E. coli infection, which is a bacterial infection that can cause sometimes severe gastrointestinal disease.
It is believed that PM Datuk Seri Najib Razak contracted the infection while touring the flood-hit areas of his country.
Malaysian health officials say that the PM’s infection is no indicator of an E.coli outbreak in any of the states affected by the recent floods.
According to The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO), doctors have ordered him to stay at home and rest.
According to a tweet he writes (computer translated), “I will continue to monitor the flood relief operations from home. ”
Most types of E. coli are not implicated in human illness; however some can cause bloody diarrhea and kidney issues.
