Former Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison has been censured by the nation’s parliament for giving himself secret powers while in office.
The historic motion follows a damning report which said his actions were “corrosive of trust in government”.
It marks the first time a former Prime Minister has been censured by the House of Representatives.
Mr. Morrison has defended appointing himself to several ministries, calling the censure “retribution” by opponents but Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has described his actions as a “power grab”. END
