Michael Slater accuses Prime Minister Scott Morrison of having “blood on his hands”

May 5,2021: According to BaaghiTV, former Test cricketer commentator Michael Slater has accused Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison of having “blood on your hands” because of the growing crisis in India.

Slater, who is in India to comment on the IPL, said in a Twitter post on Monday night that the government’s policy of temporarily barring Australia from returning home was a “disgrace”. At the same time, the Morrison government has banned flights from India until May 15. Citizens seeking repatriation have been fined heavily or even jailed. Slater said that fellow citizens stranded in India were being ignored by his government.

If our Government cared for the safety of Aussies they would allow us to get home. It's a disgrace!! Blood on your hands PM. How dare you treat us like this. How about you sort out quarantine system. I had government permission to work on the IPL but I now have government neglect
