It's very evident @ScottMorrisonMP's office & Liberal party HQ have been leaking to the media about Christine Holgate for some time now.
Passive aggressive phrases like "chauffeur driven CEO" started to appear a few months back.
The same phrase used in every media outlet too. https://twitter.com/iMusing/status/1319392958408347649

Scott Morrison:
* barges about in a private taxpayer's jet to Lib fundraiser in Adelaide
* mother & mother-in-law are fed & accommodated at taxpayer's expense
* best mates employed to make cups of tea for his wife
Morrison grandstanding over a mere $12,000 is just laughable.

You can tell it's coming from Scott Morrison's office when his official support club at the @australian centre him in their articles as the hero of the story.
When you read phrases like "Scott Morrison personally intervened" - you know Morrison's people planted that.
Trump'ish.

If we look at the phrase Scott Morrison's comms team and the Liberal HQ dirt unit have artfully scattered about - we can see that their work is done.
No mention of the fact the previous CEO of Aust Post ALSO had a car & driver.
And three times Holgate's salary (at $5.6M pa)

The previous CEO of Australia Post, Ahmed Fahour received almost $7 million in 2017.
He also received a further $4 million for "executive incentives" in 2016.
Which is 1,333 x Cartier gift watches.
No word from Scott Morrison the Treasurer then.

So we have Scott Morrison overseeing & ignoring every blatant govt scandal from paying $30M for a scrappy $3M dairy farm, to billions in contracts to government mates, and who has Angus Taylor as a minister.
And we're expected to believe he's moral chest beating over $12,000?
And we're expected to believe he's moral chest beating over $12,000?
We're expected to believe - and I haven't seen any questioning of it - that within 60 mins of Christine Holgate talking about some watches at Senate estimates, the Prime Minister had suddenly prepared a full scale 4 week inquiry?
Oh ffs, please
And still nothing on #Watergate

Look at these deliberate words. Poisoned.
This is Houdini mind-manipulation. Manufactured, self-serving spin
We have a media and public that takes everything @ScottMorrisonMP says and does on face value.
Stop.
Morrison the controller does nothing without an agenda.
Always.

BREAKING.
Here's a missing piece to Morrison's manufactured Australia Post hissy fit.
An insider passed this on to me.
Christine Holgate is being stitched up - by Scott Morrison & co.
With some compliant media happily looking no further than Morrison's contrived statements.

The board of Aust Post would like you to believe they approved discretionary spending by the CEO - but they didn't approve discretionary spending by the CEO.
Oh, and the then chairman John Stanhope is hoping you believe it happened without his input.
Which is umm - awkward.
