A regular customer of the McDonald’s Family Restaurant at Engadine in southern Sydney says he has known for some time that the story about ex-prime minister Scott Morrison uncontrollably soiling his pants there in 1997 was totally untrue.
News reports last week said the man who first started spreading the story via social media in 2018 after Mr Morrison became prime minister had admitted it was a fiction. (below)
But Trevor Snerge, who eats at least daily at the Engadine McDonald’s, said he had learned a year ago from the ex-PM himself that the story was not true.
“Not many people know, but Scomo actually came here to Engadine Maccas during the 2022 federal election campaign,” Mr Snerge said.
“It was a bit of a secret visit to do some filming for a TV ad. I happened to be here at the time and asked him what was going on.
“He told me in strict confidence that Liberal Party polling showed voters liked him when he was seen as an everyday, knockabout sort of bloke like your average voter.
“So he was going to re-enact getting pissed and pissing and shitting his pants and the Libs were going to cut an advert out of it and run it in the last weeks of the campaign. (main picture)
“I suspect at that stage that their polling was also telling them they were losing to Albo so I guess they were making the ad because they had nothing to lose, except government of course.
“In the end the ad never aired. I often think it’s because it was too graphic.
“Scomo really got into it and refused a stunt double and wouldn’t hear of using fake faeces or urine to fill his pants. He actually shat and pissed himself. Jeez it stunk in here for days after.
“Anyway when the filming was finished and as his aides were hosing him down in the car park I asked Scomo about the original story of his uncontrollably duttoning his daks and if it really happened.
“He wiped some shit from his hands onto his shirt and looked me square in the eye and swore to me that it really did happen back in 1997 after the Sharks lost the rugby league grand final.
“So I knew then and there that it was total bullshit. At least now everyone else knows,” Mr Snerge said.
