Scott Morrison can't keeping running away from his role in the commuter car park program scandal.

He must come clean.

Despite evidence clearly pointing to his involvement, and that of his office, in the dodgy process of project selection, the Prime Minister is yet to account for his actions.

This week he has refused to answer questions in Question Time and, in a train wreck of a press conference yesterday, failed to address any of the questions put to him by the media.

After Minister Tudge this week denied responsibility for the list of 20 marginal seats used to drive project selection, the Prime Minister himself cannot escape blame.

It clear from the ANAO report that if it wasn't Mr Tudge, it must have been Morrison.

The ANAO report also tells us that the Prime Minister personally signed off on 27 commuter car park projects the day before entering caretaker for the 2019 election. He's up to his neck in this.

The Prime Minister can't keep hiding from his responsibility for these rorts.
