doing a Morrison
A range of tactics for dodging your responsibilities, including (but not limited to): going missing when the going gets tough;
passing the buck; and talking your way out of a tight spot with an empty promise.Australian slang. Inspired by Australia’s 30th Prime Minister
Scott Morrison.(NOTE: ‘Doing a Morrison’ is not to be confused with ‘Getting Morrisoned’, which usually involves you losing either your pre-selection (see Michael Towke), your job (see Christine
Holgate), or your credit for a job well done (see nearly everyone else).)
