Reg Lynch
Two serious revelations about former Prime Minister Scott Morrison inspired Reg Lynch to create this disgruntled Liberal cleaner. First, that Morrison, in his former role as Minister for Social Services, was told of the illegality of the Robodebt scheme before it was implemented in 2015. And second, further information was uncovered in March 2023 about secret ministerial appointments made by Morrison during his time as Prime Minister.
