Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison has embraced his nickname “ScoMo”, an endearing badge of honour, affording him a semi-cool “Quiet Australian” status through cringeworthy colloquial Aussie slang. He hasn’t been quite so enamoured by the snarkier nickname “Scotty from Marketing”, an homage to his marketing background and keen eye for political optics.

Well, brace yourself Australia. The Prime Minister has a new nickname. ScoMo is now “ScoHo” as “Scotty Holiday” demonstrates to the Australian public just how much stamina he can muster during states of national crisis. ScoMo copped a lot of criticism over his trip to Hawaii during Australia’s most catastrophic bushfire season in history, leaving many wondering where the bloody hell he was. ScoMo, now ScoHo, has since learned that honesty is the best policy. That’s why, this time around, he’s not bothering to hide the details of his family holiday, during Australia’s second national emergency for 2020.
