War With Iran, Embassy Spin and Angus Taylor’s Watergate | Scam of the Week

by | Apr 5, 2026 | Scam of the Week

Happy Easter! Are Albo and Penny in breach of the Ten Commandments? We check it out, particularly Commandment 9 – thou shalt not lie.

This week’s Scam of the Week spans three familiar fault lines, war, secrecy and political protection. It looks at Australia’s position in the escalating conflict with Iran, and the fallout from the National Press Club appearance by Israel’s ambassador, who have a hate speech.

Also Murray Watt and Watergate, Angus Taylor, and Ted O’Brien blaming renewable energy for rising oil prices. There are some beauties, as always, plenty of scammy content. #auspol #iran #trump #pauline #barnaby
