On a happier note

Tony and friends… the sunken ship? You guessed it… Australia.

 

Dear reader, it’s time for some reflection. We’ve decided not to talk to you about the depressing state of things in the Federal Parliament. Rather we thought in the interests of decency we should present this fine adaptation of what actually happens in the next cabinet meeting… You’ve heard about no business being on the agenda. All those peripheral issues being solved… It helps to have tick sheet..

Aboriginal reconciliation. On hold (indefinitely)

Renewables. On hold, (indefinitely)

Marriage equality. On hold, (indefinitely)

Imagination. Suspended

Terror. Great progress, (ongoing)

Jobs. On hold

Coal. Great progress, (ongoing)

Prisons. Great progress, (ongoing)

Health. On hold

Housing affordability. On hold

Tax reform. On hold

Environment. Great progress, (ongoing)

Education. On hold

WW2 Era kitsch. poignant though

So in summary there’s nothing to talk about in cabinet. The boats have been stopped and that’s all there is. And of course we needn’t remind our readers, that there are 1500 promised jobs with the new Carmichael Coal mine, (on hold) whilst some 20,000 have been lost in the renewables industry. So lets celebrate the Abbott Government in the tradition of those famous WW2 era posters. Instead of canines we’ll use a snake, a shark, and octopus and crustacea. The shark represents the P.M, the snake, the rump conservatives, and the piano playing octopus, none other than Rupert Murdoch.. The crustacea, the core constituency. You can change the characters around about but ultimately it makes no difference. But as you can see, they’re all having a gay old time!!!
