Environment minister says Australians free to call it whatever they want after Bureau of Meteorology updates name
“I’ve released that publicly. Now it’s time to let the Bureau of Meteorology get on with what it does best – predict the weather to help keep Australians safe.”
“The Bureau of Meteorology, the BoM – Australians will make up their own minds about what they call it,” Plibersek said. Guardian Australia has contacted Era-Co and The C Word for comment, as well as the Bureau of Meteorology to ask whether it will follow through with its request to media. By Wednesday, all those accounts were either suspended or free to use, having been vacated by the users who had parked on those handles.
