In a big move this morning, the Prime Minister has announced a 102 million dollar package to help rain affected Instagram influencers.

The package comes after a horror run of rain and miserable weather has thrown the Instagram industry into turmoil.

With day after day of cloudy skies and heavy rain following a few months of bushfire dominated social media, many of the nation’s entrepreneurs who ply their trade through posting bikini-clad photos near the ocean with cheeky yet clever captions about the weather, work or food have been struggling.

The package will be rolled out over the coming weeks through a variety of different channels.

Prime Minister Morrison speaking at a press conference this morning explained why the much-needed aid will be rolled out.

“This country is built on people who want to work. And with this horrible miserable weather, thousands of our young women have been cooped up indoors, unable to make a crust,” Morrison said.

“So we will be providing some vital aid to these young women, who in a way are the lifeblood of our trades and construction industries.”

“The money will be filtered through in the forms of a new man-made, enclosed beach in each of the nations capital cities, that will look so realistic their followers won’t be able to tell the difference.”

Morrison explained that there would also be aid in the form of providing one-off grants for the influencers to purchase new followers and the creation of thousands of new bots who will like and comments on their profiles.
