Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese (pictured) said on Sunday that his government would consider launching an investigation into the country's former leader Scott Morrison over allegations he broke democratic principles during the coronavirus pandemic.
Following Morrison's decision to step down from the Liberal Party leadership after losing the May elections, it was revealed he was secretly sworn into five key ministries during the coronavirus pandemic and obtained a significant power when it came to decision-making.
However, the former prime minister defended himself by arguing he felt responsible for the nation during the health crisis. "We'll examine all those issues after receiving the Solicitor General's advice. I am running a proper cabinet government that has proper processes, and we'll give full consideration to it," Albanese told Sky News.
