Popular comedian Jordan Shanks has called on the Queen to sack Prime Minister Scott Morrison over his handling of the bushfire crisis.

'Your majesty, you fired Gough Whitlam for less than that,' he said on YouTube.

'If Gough Whitlam was sacked for not getting the supply bill through Senate, surely Scott Morrison should be sacked for not supplying the firefighters.'

Mr Shanks, known as Friendlyjordies, urged the public to call for his sacking by contacting the Royal Family.

The video was uploaded on Sunday and has been viewed more than 47,300 times since then.

Queen Elizabeth II is officially Australia's head of state but her website says she won't interfere.

'As a constitutional Monarch, Her Majesty does not intervene in any political or personal disputes, and letters asking her to do so will receive a standard reply to this effect,' the website says.

The Queen's representative in Australia is Governor-General David Hurley.

He is the official commander-in-chief of the Australian Defence Force and has the power to dissolve Parliament, dismiss government ministers and the right to exercise reserve powers.

Daily Mail Australia asked Governor-General Hurley's office if the Governor-General would ask the Queen to dismiss the Prime Minister.

A spokesperson from the Office of the Official Secretary to the Governor-General responded to the request via email on Monday afternoon.

'No,' the spokesperson said.

Prime Minister Scott Morrison has been criticised for perceived lack of leadership in handling the bushfire crisis. Friendlyjordies asked the Queen to sack him like Gough Whitlam

Friendlyjordies urged the public to contact the Queen

In 1975 Australia had a crisis when the opposition blocked Prime Minister Gough Whitlam's Labor government from passing appropriation bills needed to supply money for government spending through the Senate.

The Governor General dismissed the Prime Minister and called a double dissolution election which Mr Whitlam lost.

FriendlyJordies said it hadn't been possible for Mr Whitlam to get the supply bills through the Senate.

'But it was very possible for Scott Morrison ... to supply firefighters with even basic equipment which his government and preceding Liberal governments refused,' he told Daily Mail Australia on Monday afternoon.

'Surely that is a level of gross negligence that far supercedes whatever crimes Gough Whitlam's may have been.'

Prime Minister Scott Morrison has been broadly criticised over the past two weeks for a perceived lack of leadership in his handling of the bushfire crisis, in particular for going on holiday to Hawaii as the fires burned.

Former Prime Minister Tony Abbott (pictured) was criticised by the video as an 'incompetent' politician - but good as a person who has been fighting the fires without media attention

Daily Mail Australia contacted the Prime Minister's Office but they did not provide a response to the video.

The video praised former Labor leaders Kevin Rudd and Bill Shorten for their handling of previous disasters and called on the Queen to make current Labor leader Anthony Albanese Prime Minister, heavily praising him, also.

'After you dismissed him (Gough Whitlam), you made Malcolm Fraser caretaker Prime Minister,' he says in the video.

'Seeing as Anthony Albanese is already acting as such, can we just make it official.'

The video strongly criticises former Liberal leaders Malcolm Turnbull and Tony Abbott, calling Mr Abbott 'incompetent' as a politician while praising his personal efforts as a volunteer firefighter.

Daily Mail Australia asked Mr Shanks whether his video was a paid political advertisement, but he said it was not.

'No, it's completely crowd-funded,' he said.

Daily Mail Australia asked Anthony Albanese's office whether they had contributed funding for the video.

'The Labor Party did not pay for this video,' an Opposition spokesperson said via email.

Daily Mail Australia also asked the Australian Council of Trade Unions (ACTU), which has strong ties to the Labor party, whether it funded the video.

In 2016 the ACTU employed Mr Shanks to create an advertising video as part of their election campaign.

The ACTU did not reply in time for publication.

FriendlyJordies said he worked with the ACTU once in 2016, but that was a long time ago, and that he is now independently crowd funded via Patreon donations.
