Between 2013 and 2022, Tony Abbott begat Malcolm Turnbull, who begat Scott Morrison. For nine long years, Australia was governed by a succession of Coalition governments rocked by instability and bloodletting, and consumed with prosecuting climate and culture wars while neglecting policy. By the end, among his detractors -- and there were plenty -- Morrison was seen as the worst prime minister since Billy McMahon. Worse even than Tony Abbott, who lasted a scant two years in the job, whose main legacy was that he destroyed Julia Gillard, then himself, and then Turnbull. Morrison failed to accept the mantle of national leadership, or to deal adequately with the challenges of natural disasters and the COVID-19 pandemic. He thought reform was a vanity project. He said he never wanted to leave a legacy. He got his wish. Niki Savva, Australia's renowned political commentator, author, and columnist, was there for all of it. In The Road to Ruin, she revealed the ruinous behaviour of former prime minister Abbott and his chief of staff, Peta Credlin, that led to the ascension of Turnbull. In Plots and Prayers, she told the inside story of the coup that overthrew Turnbull and installed his conniving successor, Morrison. Now she lays out the final unravelling of the Coalition at the hands of a resurgent Labor and the so-called teal independents that culminated in the historic 2022 election. With her typical access to key players, and her riveting accounts of what went on behind the scenes, Bulldozed is the unique final volume of an unputdownable and impeccably sourced political trilogy.… (más)

Scott Morrison is the prime minister who went on holiday to Hawaii during the 2020 bushfires, lied about it, and when tackled by the press said, "I don't hold a hose, mate." And that's the tip of the iceberg. He is the top contender for Australia's worst prime minister ever, an absolute gift to the Labor Party, which won the May Federal election.

Niki Savva is a respected, experienced political journalist with access to politicians on all sides of politics. A lot of them have been very honest and forthright, and it's a shame Morrison's colleagues covered for him for so long when they didn't support what he was doing. This is a rushed book, and the prose is clunky, but I read it with glee. ( )
