pass the buck

Not everyone was ready to let Bondi pass the buck, though.

His first appearance was on Say the Word in 1997, and other credits include Pass the Buck, Breakaway and Two Tribes.

Ms Ford said that response was "a terrible way of trying to pass the buck onto the victims".

The collective angst has so far not resulted in a massive protest and, as the Supreme Court once observed, politicians just “pass the buck” and wait for the season to get over.

"They are all trying to pass the buck so that no one says yes I made this decision knowing that should a fire occur it would be one of complete devastation."
