Angry Australians have lashed out at Scott Morrison for holding a press conference on his religious freedom bill instead of giving more attention to the bushfire crisis that has seen Sydney smothered in smoke today.
Mr Morrison released the second version of the religious freedom bill this morning and held a press conference to announce the 11 major changes that have been made to the draft legislation.
The second version of the draft comes as Sydney experiences horrific smoky conditions from massive bushfires burning on the city’s outskirts, with some areas reaching 11 times hazardous levels.
Some on social media claimed the prime minister was ignoring the bushfire crisis by making the decision to focus on the religious freedom bill.

Mr Morrison has also been called out for his response in the wake of the deadly volcanic eruption in New Zealand.
At least three Australians are thought to have been killed when the White Island volcano erupted on Monday afternoon, with more still missing.
Mr Morrison held a press conference this morning and offered his support to New Zealand on Twitter.
“I have been in touch with @jacindaardern to offer our full support with whatever they need and our authorities are working closely together,” he wrote.
“I will be staying in direct contact as events continue to unfold. We will provide updates once they are confirmed and are available.”
However the prime minister was again attacked on social media, because some thought he should be offering that level of support to those battling the bushfires.
“You have the greatest tragedy occurring under your nose, loss of property, natural habitat & whole animal species decimated & you have the gall to be commenting about what’s going on in New Zealand? Where is your sense of urgency empathy and leadership at home? Disgusting!” one Twitter user said.
“Okay. So about you now concentrate on our disaster? Talk to the experts, listen to them, do as they suggest. Just like NZ is listening to the experts. Show that those empathy lessons worked and talk to victims of the fire. Give fire services what they need,” another said.

My heart goes out to those in NZ but we have our own emergency here that ScoMo should be paying more attention to. More than 1000 homes have been lost in NSW alone. You can't even begin to count the loss of animal lives including those threatened and endangered and Morrison is rejecting calls for more help.

ScoMo has said and done all he can for Australians, giving them his, "thoughts and prayers".
He wants to go to New Zealand to get away from the poor air (in more ways than one) here in Australia. He should migrate there. It'd do Australia the world of good to get rid of him.

It must be frustrating for the Lefties to see how Albo copies everything ScoMo does as Albo is now a disciple of the ScoMo Messiah and follows him to the light on the hill.

The RET which is really just a subsidy scam has perverted the energy market to such a degree the conventional operators are prepared to ditch the most economical options and cash in on corporate welfare - subsidies for windmills.
So ironically the so called renewable sector now mimics the mother of all subsidy scams - nuclear power.
If Donald Trump is so close to the Ruskis, why couldn't he get Vladimir Putin to put novichok in Xi Jjinping's lipstick?
