Scotty seems more interested in doing soft stuff (photo opportunities) going to the football, having a beer, holding up a shovel.
If you don't believe me, check Scotty's own Twitter feed - it is mostly marketing drivel and NOTHING about C19 recovery. The part-time PM who specialises in social distancing? 
As it's been pointed out to me "you get paid the big bucks, do the job or **** off! |
Keep in mind the federal government is limited to what it can do - it can throw money around (or take it away), limit who comes into the country etc.
State governments are responsible for how they control COVID19 locally - they have more control over what happens within their borders.
Same with the bushfires - as much as you want to tilt at windmills doesn't matter if Scomo is in Hawaii or at the footy you don't have the CEO/GM of private enterprise turning the screwdriver.
Good leaders manage their team, they don't turn the screwdriver, you don't need Scomo in a fire truck or helping out at the drive through covid19 stations.
