‘Every single child is a blessing’: Scott Morrison defends autism comment made in ‘good faith’
Scott Morrison is defending his comment on children with autism after heavy criticism.
When asked about the National Disability Insurance Scheme from a woman with an autistic son during last night’s leaders’ debate, Mr Morrison said: “Jenny and I have been blessed. We’ve got two children who haven’t had to go through that.”
The Prime Minister told Ray Hadley “every single child is a blessing”.
“I was simply trying to say in good faith ‘I haven’t walked in your shoes’.”
