Prime Minister Scott Morrison says suggestions he has any links to the baseless QAnon conspiracy movement are"deeply offensive", amid reports the head of the ABC delayed an episode of the ABC's Four Corners program about the matter.

I clearly do not," Mr Morrison told reporters in Canberra on Friday. "It is just also disappointing that Four Corners in their inquiries would seek to cast this aspersion, not just against me but by members of my own family.QAnon follower Rosanne Boyland died during the US Capitol riot.
The paper also reported Mr Anderson later clarified his decision saying he provided feedback to staff for improvement and did not scrap the episode.

Scott Morrison is the ‘leading jockey’ but Labor have a chance at next election | Sky News AustraliaFormer Labor powerbroker Graham Richardson says Scott Morrison is still the “leading jockey”, dismissing projections the Labor Party are favourites to win the upcoming federal election.\n\nResults released by Newspoll last month have the ALP leading the Coalition 51 points to 49 on a two-party preferred basis with Prime Minister Scott Morrison leading Opposition leader Anthony Albanese as the preferred PM.\n\nMr Richardson, though, says there’s little indication that the Australian public are itching for change.\n\n“I get no sense anywhere I go that people are crying out for change, if that’s happening, it's missed me entirely,” he said. \n\n“I don’t know where this comes from, I don’t know who they’re interviewing, all I know is I don’t believe it for a second.\n\n“The government is still on top, I don’t think they’re on top by a huge margin, I think Labor is still in the hunt but certainly as they round the home turn, you’ve got to say that the leading jockey is definitely ScoMo.”\n\nMr Richardson also criticised Michael Daley for his lack of 'generosity' and has backed Chris Minns to become the NSW Opposition leader.\n\n“I’m disappointed in Michael Daley, he’s had his go and he should be giving a free run to Chris Minns to enable us to get a good start,” he continued.\n\n“I am very disappointed in him as a person, I think the Labor Party has been pretty good to him, he should have been more generous to the Labor party in return.”\n\n
