‘Standards have fallen’: Andrew Bolt criticises appointment of new Governor-General
Sky News host Andrew Bolt has criticised the appointment of former Labor advisor Samantha Mostyn as Australia’s next Governor-General.
Ms Mostyn will be sworn into the role on July 1, taking over from David Hurley who has been serving as the country's Governor-General since 2019.
Mr Bolt hit out at the gender equality advocate for jumping on almost “every hobby horse of the new left”.
“A second-tier functionary of the new left, chosen by a socialist left Prime Minister to - and this is the joke - be the governor-general. A unifying, supposedly, and apolitical, supposedly, figure representing us all,” Mr Bolt said.
“Someone to act as our neutral umpire, totally impartial, in a constitutional crisis.
“Standards have fallen, haven't they?”

Ridiculous, the GG should be appointed by the King, after the GG is the Monarch Representative in Australia. So the GG is or was supposed to supervise the Australian Government and PM on the Kings behalf. Yet here the PM is selecting the GG, what a joke, if he is selecting her that means the position is redundant. The position needs to be removed it serves no purpose, jobs for the boys or Girls. At the tax payers expense.

Whichever way you look at it, the government has appointed as our constitutional head of state a person who has, time and time again, expressed disdain for Australia. If she doesn't hate Australia, she certainly dislikes it intensely. Which makes me wonder if the government itself doesn't share her views.
My opinion is that the the Governor General should be apolitical person who is deemed by society as a "hero" of the nation! Not a political hack who most people have never hear of. Furthermore the GG should be someone that the majority of people would want to meet and shake their hands.
