During a media door stop at Mt. Barker in South Australia on 24 December 2019 Australian Prime Minister & Liberal MP for Cook Scott Morrison asserted that certain action/s taken by a voter* resident in the federal electorate of Kooyong were anti-Semitic.
This was not the first time - he made a similar assertion about another voter at another doorstop on 17 July 2019.
Having modelled himself on U.S. President Donald J. Trump, Scotty From Marketing had taken to telling brazen political lies and freely throwing insults around without suffering uncomfortable consequences.

However, Australia is not quite America just yet and, this time a letter arrived at Morrison's electoral office.
If Morrison doesn't resolve this matter to the satisfaction of Michael Staindl then sometime after tomorrow legal proceeding will in all likelihood commence.
Note
* Michael Staindl filed a petition in the High Court sitting as the Court of Disputed Returns in July 2019 challenging Australian Treasurer & Liberal MP for Kooyong Josh Frydenberg's eligibility to sit in the federal parliament. The hearing was set down for Tuesday 18 and Wednesday 19 February 2020. The Court is still considering evidence submitted and has not yet handed down a judgment.
