Amid Australia’s unprecedented and ongoing bushfire crisis, Prime Minister Scott Morrison has addressed his response to the crisis in a new interview with ABC Insiders host David Speers.
On Sunday, Morrison sat down with the journalist to address the criticism he faced over his holiday to Hawaii during the bushfire crisis.
During the 30-minute interview, the Prime Minister also acknowledged the role of climate change in the harsh conditions, signalling that the Coalition’s climate change policy could “evolve” as a result.

C'mon, let's start 2020 the way we'd like it to continue, by not deleting awesome, albeit ranty, comments.
Scomo was being sneaky re. his holiday and is dragging his feet on changing his climate policy, even though he's now personally polling lower than Shortens worst.
The time to pressure Morrison is now and he's demonstrated that he's more likely to react to bad polls, than a compassionate need.
Morrison is a lame duck PM.
There are already moves within the Liberal Party to call a leadership spill by early February. The contenders most likely being Dutton, Porter, and Frydenberg.
