Morrison won the election in a direct democracy with mandatory voting. Recently they increased their approval in the latest poll.
Countries get the leaders they deserve.

Australia is not a direct democracy, it's a representative democracy. The only element of direct democracy we have are constitutional referendums.

Semi-direct, yes. But at some point majority of the people have elected him? And still approve of him. Anything else are excuses. fwiw, I didn't vote for him and am equally disappointed

Maybe the people get what they deserve, but the poor animals get screwed without having any say in anything.
