The Financial Times has published a brutal editorial about Australia

The world is always watching, it seems.

As Australia faces down one of its worst bushfire seasons on record and Prime Minister Scott Morrison tries to navigate criticism of his holiday jaunt to Hawaii, London's Financial Times has published an editorial on the situation, condemning Australia’s “lamentable response” to climate change.

“The scale of the country’s wildfire emergency has few precedents,” the financial newspaper’s editorial board writes.

“But it has been exacerbated by a regrettable lack of leadership from the prime minister, Scott Morrison. Beyond Australia’s shores, his government stands as a reproach to any leaders tempted to follow its lamentable response to the deepening threat of climate change.”
