Over the weekend, the failing Bureau of Meteorology warned South East Queensland residents to prepare for 300mm of rain, but they reportedly added an extra “0” by mistake. The BOM cannot be trusted, as shown repeatedly under questioning by Senator Roberts. They adjust, change, and fudge figures to fit their narrative. 

This follows their failed and wasteful 90million website debacle. Appearing before a Senate estimates hearing on February 9, BOM tried to knocked back assertions by One Nation Senator Malcolm Roberts that the website was a “complete failure”.

“I think what has happened is it’s met 80 to 90 per cent of its intended outcomes, and it’s missed both on a few key user experiences for some parts of the community, and we are working hard on addressing those”. A $90million website should be 100% correct at the time of launch. Labor can't be trusted with money, nor predicting the weather.
